I eat dry Cheerios in the car on my way to the office every morning.  I have them in a small Tupperware and dump them into my mouth (classy right?) and sometimes a few will spill on me.  Well this am I thought I dropped a few but couldn't find it, so oh well.  At work at 10:45am a Cheerio fell out of my scarf, I kept my scarf on bc its freezing in NJ today.... but I did reposition my scarf to lay differently... thankfully no one was around when it fell out but now I'm wondering if anyone saw it just chillen in my scarf? 🤦‍♀️

This morning my child pouted in the grocery store because they didn't have any sprinkle covered donuts. This donut trip was honestly just a reward for me getting out of bed early enough to get my husband to work and running the much needed errands of getting toilet paper, getting the kids bangs cut ahead of her belt test tomorrow, and purchasing her new headphones for her tablet ahead of the now 2 prenatal appointments she will be attending with me. (Pray for my soul guys, the big wigs from NYC are coming to my husband's office Monday and now he can't leave the 30 minutes early to take the kid before my appointment Monday.. so my daughter will see her first Pap test) 

REGARDLESS, she gets handed a lollipop post hair cut and now we are looking at donuts and she's pouting and the guy behind the counter hands her a free sprinkle cookie and offers to take a donut in back and add more chocolate and sprinkles to so she'll be happy.  I politely DECLINE this offer while staring at her ear to ear grin at the acquisition of this sprinkle cookie and she happily settles for a plain glazed donut.  On what planet does her pout have this much power?  Why don't people offer me extra chocolate and sprinkles when I pout?? What is this life?

@RedBaramid I'd LOVE a sprinkled donut right now. Preferably pink or rainbow sprinkles.

<b>This</b>. Actually happened today.

You do realize, you made a pregnant woman push your cart back for you.  Plus someone took the spot in front of me while I was doing it, so I STILL couldn't pull straight out of my spot. 😩

@BusinessWife Seriously?!  This is one of my pet peeves!  I cannot stand the laziness

@ziggymama06 I wouldn't have even cared if I could have easily driven by?  But she actually had it sticking out in front of me, too.  Really???

I even said to the couple nearby what was going on and the guy goes, "you didn't mind, right?" Lmao uh... No, not at all... 🤦

Honestly, I can’t think of a better way to prepare for motherhood than finding Cheerios in random places. Just think of it as getting a head start on your inevitable future 😉

@gomillis Haha! Amen to that! I crunch Cheerios under my feet in random places all day long.

@gomillis & @lachnessmomster Bahahaha my car looks like a have a toddler already.  I drove MHs car a few days and he complained I left Cheerios  everywhere lol 🤷‍♀️🤣

lachnessmomster

@ziggymama06 If I left food in DH's car, he'd lose his mind. He's very particular about his vehicle. 😂

ziggymama06

@lachnessmomster MH is too!  His car is pristine... but oh well... I'm easing him into what fatherhood will be like! 🤣  His car is the SUV that we would mostly use as our family car lol

gomillis

My car used to be pristine and I swore I’d never have a crumb covered car like those other parents. Now I just laugh at my naive pre-motherhood self as I watch my child eat days old Cheerios he fished out of his car seat.

@gomillis 100%. Whatever I need to do to not endure both kids driving me bonkers in a car ride, I'll do. Eat all the pretzels you want, guys, just please don't yell at me for at least ten minutes. 😂

MH complains about the mess in my car and won't let DS1 eat in his unless absolutely necessary. He makes DS1 eat food before they leave when it's his turn to take him to school (rarely happens). I don't have time to wait for DS1 to eat so I have quick grab and go breakfast options in the house so he can eat in the car. My back seat is a reck. My front seat becomes a trash pile (as does the back) from all the "here you go mom" while driving trash DS1 hands me. I just want to get to our destination semi on time and not listen to DS1 complain the whole way so go ahead and eat and make a mess in my car.

At what age is it actually even safe to let a kid eat a snack in the backseat?  I am over here team #noeatinginthecar because of the compounded choking hazard of having them far from you + strapped in + in a moving vehicle, if something bad were to happen.  :#
