Today is no exception.
Earlier this morning Ryan was attending an information session up at the college about going back to school in September and I was entertaining Gretchen. I'd just finished feeding her & was trying to make her laugh, when I had a serious lapse in parental judgment & lifted her high above my head.
She laughed hysterically for a moment and then spewed forth an intense quantity of milk all over my face, my hair, my purse, my shirt, the chair, the floor & the sling.
Ryan couldn't help but burst out laughing before handing me a blanket to clean myself.
I believe this is one of those rites of passage that all new mamas must conquer. Now I'm officially a Parent.

Yeah! It happens to the best of us!! :) Have a good day!
Thanks! You too!
Unfortunately I never had that rite of passage... or maybe fortunately! My babies rarely or never spit up, so I felt pretty fortunate. But I think Noodle would have been less colicky if he'd spit up once in awhile!
Yes you have officially crossed over ;). Fun times!
Ummm...not sure if I should tell you this, but just wait until you get barfed on. It's been my experience (lucky me) that my kids always barf on me, not their dad. I think it's because I'm the one comforting them and holding them when it happens.
Your baby is so darn adorable, I'm sure she was instantly forgiven. LOL
Hahaha, I probably shouldn't have, but I laughed when I read this. :) I guess this is one of the joys of being a Mama? :)
Also included in the right of passage is being peed & pooped on too!
Spit, poop, pee! You name it -- I've had it happen!
I shouldn't laugh because I'll be next, but it happened to my husband but not yet to me. Hee!
I should have known better than to hold a full baby above my head by her belly -- silly mama!
My son threw up so much on me I nearly always had a towel on my shoulder just for him. Thank goodness he grew out of it.
Ha ha! What's worse is when that happens and you have your mouth open!
Note: my mouth was a little bit open ;)
I wear the new mommy perfume everyday - eau de barf
My kids don't spew, but both spit up after feedings, I suspect because they are gluttons and just eat and eat...
