My goal for this Friday is to get some of this on camera!

My Auntie is not-so-Awesome

Carter's onesie

This cursed onesie has resulted in my two most embarrassing moments as Auntie Em.

First wear of this onesie I allowed a 13-month-old to stick her hand in the toilet. I realize this happens in a lot of households, but literally I have one job all day on Fridays- to keep up with this onesie's wearer. #Fail

Second wear of this onesie I allowed a 16-month-old to ingest a poisonous berry. OK, well I don't know that the berry was ingested, she was just holding it, and it turns out the berry isn't poisonous, but it very well could've been! Thanks to the kind people at Poison Control (JOHN!) who reassured me that this particular berry had never been known to be toxic. Phew.

Let's just say this one is going to Goodwill.
