So I can definitely tell that Lilly is my second child. Not only do I not jump everytime she whimpers (and actually let her cry things out quite often because I just cannot get to her while chasing Olivia as well), but I apparently tend to forget quite a lot when I take her out. We went to visit Shell and Chris and the kids on Sunday night. Lilly of course was fussy and when we arrived we had to change her diaper. Well she managed to pee on herself and I realized that I had completely forgot to pack an extra outfit. On top of that, we realized we only had one diaper left. So Lilly had to hang out in a wet undershirt and a dirty diaper until we left. I did manage to remember formula for her since it was feeding time, but apparently she is a little more sensitive to the temperature of the formula than Olivia was and refused to take the bottle very well because it was too cold. If this has happened with Olivia, I would have been in hysterics. With Lilly, it is frankly just par for the course. Of course, this never would have happened with Olivia - I would have had 3 outfits packed and enough formula and diapers for a week, as Shell conveniently pointed out. How we evolve!
