I am entering with the hopes of winning the shopping spree for my sister, Lacy, who is expected to deliver her baby boy on or around 9/10/10. I am already the mother to a fantastic daughter, Elise, who is 17mos old. There have been many fun, trying, and exciting moments that I've experienced as a Mommy, but this one still stands out as one of the funniest:
My funniest "Mommy moment" came shortly after I had given birth to my adorable baby girl. We were visiting my husband's mother, and were laughing about the challenge of diapering a baby boy versus a baby girl. My mother-in-law had both sexes (1 girl, 1 boy) and submitted that changing a baby boy was 10x harder than changing a baby girl. I laughed and had to agree because to that point, my daughter Elise had been a breeze. After a few minutes, the time came to change Elise's diaper, and my husband and I took her into the guest bedroom. She laid there like the sweet angel that she was, cooing and grinning at her Dad while I prepared to change her. As I pulled back the diaper, out shoots a spray of pee! I squealed and my husband started laughing as my mother-in-law ran into the room to see what the commotion was about. As I wiped myself off and prepared to trade out the now soaked diaper for the fresh one, the little doll then SHOOTS OUT poo, at a record-setting distance--all over herself, me, and the bed. I was in such shock that this occurred, and as a new and unexperience mommy, I didn't know what to do. My husband was of no help due to being in such a laughing fit he could barely breathe. I looked at my mother-in-law with horror and she looked back to me with a grin and sayed "well, I guess girls aren't as easy as I thought." Wasn't that the truth!?

This is "Lilli" :) I guess I forgot to sign my email, huh? My name is Lindsay Jackson! Thanks for posting my story! I hope I can win for my sis!
What a cute story...the only difference in boys and girls, baby girls don't get you in the face. Precious Babies.
what a funny story. At least baby girls don't get you in the face. Precious Babies.
You never told me that story. After raising you two girls and babysitting my precious grandbaby Elise, it's going to be quite a shock the first few times I change baby Collins' diaper. I'm sure I'll get sprayed. LOL.
