Momma Fail :(

So you know those articles you read where all you can think is "of course the kid got hurt, you weren't using the device correctly, DUH!"  Yeah well Sunday I was THAT momma...

It was absolutely gorgeous on Sunday, so we decided to go on a walk to take advantage.  We went on an average walk of about 30-45 min and we were about a block and a half away from home when suddenly the stroller seemed really light.  Odd.  I looked down and in slow motion I saw Reid's face of horror looking up at me.  My initial thought was "Why is Reid facing me??  I shouldn't see his face he faces away from me..."  Then as quickly as I saw his face it disappeared.  I abruptly stopped the stroller and reversed to see his little face looking back up at me again and then he lets out a little scream.  My second thought, 

"HOLY CRAP I JUST RAN OVER MY BABY WITH THE STROLLER!!"

Yep, that just happened.  Mom of the year right here.  Thankfully he's totally fine, but talk about feeling like a crappy Momma!  I'm the one that's always nagging the Husband to make sure he tightens the straps and buckles him in and then I - ONE TIME - don't buckle him in and he falls out AND I run him over.  Awesome.

After everyone Reid and I had calmed down, the Husband nicely asked, "How did that happen?  Did you not buckle him in?"

NOPE.  I honestly don't know why/how I didn't, can I claim Momma brain on this one??

And Mom of the Year award goes to... NOT ME!

With all that excitement I've decided on a personal goal.. find one of these bad boys gently used on Craig'sList on the cheap (or for FREE - HAHA yeah right - a girl can dream!)

My thought is the ride would be smoother so maybe then he won't feel the need to turn around!  Or I'm just coming up with excuses for why I NEED want this bad boy!
