Pregnancy Brain? or No Brain at all?

Whether it is accidentally putting the milk away in the pantry, putting my car keys in the refrigerator or, you know, slicing my finger open. I know that I haven't been the smartest pregnant person or normal person I know. But today, I topped myself again! I did the laundry yesterday, but I had missed a few items like favorite jeans, favorite sweater, Randy's basketball shorts and Tyler's favorite jeans that we all wore yesterday while I did the wash. So I thought, Well, I will just wash our favorites all together so we can wear them Saturday. Unfortunately for me, I had forgotten that Jacob found my nail polish yesterday and I had taken it away and hurriedly put it in the pocket of my jeans without thinking much of it. Of course you have figured out by now what happened. Yep, I washed everything and the whole bottle of nail polish spilled in the washer onto pretty much every item of clothing. If you want to ruin some clothes, you should definitely do exactly what I did. I read online about how to get nail polish out of clothes and learned that bug spray works, so I used it on my favorite jeans and it made it slightly lighter but didn't get rid of it completely. Kinda stinks if you ask me. (How am I supposed to find another pair of maternity jeans that have a 38 inch inseam? ahhhh! I have freakishly long legs!) lots of scrubbing on a lot of clothes, without much result.
Here is my favorite maternitysweater that of course is totally ruined. Bummer.Isn't it pretty. It is the new "I have weird pink splotches" look.

I need to give a shout out to Randy who, by the way, is the best husband in the entire world! After I ruined our clothes, I had a horrible migraine and he came home from work, scrubbed the jeans, took the kids, picked up dinner, washed out the inside of the washing machine that was covered in nail polish and let me rest. He is such a sweetheart to take all that on especially with no down time after work on a Friday. Thank you babe for cleaning up my pathetic messes as well as taking care of me. You are the BEST!

Feel content in the knowledge that we ALL do these things. When I was pregnant with Cade I starched Eric's shirt with oven cleaner accidentally and being such a wonderful man...he wore it anyway! (Then he waited 3 more months until Cade was born to tease me...he's not a dummy!) I'm glad that Randy took such good care of you. Isn't it nice to feel loved?

It cannot be helped so just laugh at yourself. Way to be there Randy!

No worries Heath, I do the same thing. Ex. I've put our left over roast back into the tupperware cupboard.
I was so confused because I knew we had leftover roast to eat but it wasn't until about a week later we found it in the cupboard, yuck! I've also opened the pantry to get a cookie but pulled out the dog bone box instead, yummy! I've also washed one of Jared's BRAND NEW work cell phones, and 3 mp3 players. Well I'm not sure if that will make you feel better or worse, but we're totally in the same boat.
