rookies

And for the rookie parent story of the week ... My company was one of the sponsors of Tempe's Arbor Day 5K so I convinced Mr. Chunglund that he and Baby J should run it with me. About halfway through, Baby J starts crying and just.won't.stop. Mr. Chunglund takes her out of the stroller and carries her for awhile only to discover a major blowout complete with leakage. Of course when we were packing the stroller, I decided we probably didn't need the diaper bag. It was only a 5K, after all. We'd be back to the car in an hour. Gambled and lost on that one. Luckily we had been awarded two free t-shirts at registration for participating in the run - one for a makeshift wipe and the other for a makeshift diaper. Oh yeah and a park bench for a changing table. And there ends another tale in our (mis)adventures in parenting.
