Projectile Vomit.

Who knew rice cereal could cause such a commosion. I literally thought for a second my child was being taken over. It was like the exorcist. And.. I am not exaggerating.

So heres what happened.

I thought "Hey, Sicily seems to be hungry even after her bottle... maybe it's time for solid food?!"

MAYBE NOT!

Rynn and I sat her in her carseat, because we don't use our heads and it seemed like a good place for her to sit at the time. Why did we not use the Bumbo or just hold her... becuase we're IDIOTS!

Anywho, back to the story...

So Sicily is seriously pissed off becuase she's hungry and I'm not giving her a bottle, so i begin to shove the rice cereal in her mouth... which only increases her pissed-off-ness.

Eventually she calms down and starts to kind of dig the cereal and is happy and yea.

Right when i think "This is cool she seems like she likes it"....

KAPOOOOOW!! Exorcist projectile vomite ALLLLL OVER. It went all over her, all over me, and the best part....ALL OVER THE CARSEAT! Which in case you are not a parent or are stuck under a rock in Ugoslavia... a carseat is kind of a necessity. We had to take the contraption apart and wash the seat cover in the wash and rinse off the really awesome cushy stuff inside... kind of like one of those squishy brown things you put on your bed to make it soft. SO needless to say the squishy stuff doesn't dry FOR like ummm hmmm EVER! Not very convenient.

And maybe your saying why didn't you just put it outside over night... and that would be a great idea, except i live in the ya never know if it's gonna rain state of Washington... which by the way... it did. So the next day I couldn't even put it outside to dry because it was overcast and yucky, btw it was sunny for like 2 weeks prior to the incident. Don't ya love that?!

So after that experience i decided hey, ya know what, i think that bottle is just fine! haha atleast when she throws that up i'm prepared for it, and i don't feel like i'm the manchick in 50 first dates that the walrus (i wish i could remember his name right now.. twin help me out) throws up all over, becuase that and this was just foul. NO gracias senor.

So the verdict is Rice Cereal+ Carseat+ 4 month old kid= VERY BAD IDEA!!!

Britney Spears of Camas High

Yes it's Me... Sarah Canepa. That same girl who was "captain" of the dance team her senior year, that girl you took to the dance, the girl who gave out dirty candy hearts on v-day, yes, that same girl just had a baby.. and guess what?! She isn't married... or even with the guy! OH EMMM GEEE!!!
Dude hott people make mistakes too! ;)
It's been a while since i've heard those words.. What? You had a baby? Mostly bc news spreads in about .25 seconds here in good ol' Camas WA. But when I first arrived back into town all pregopants out it was like wildfire.. everyone was soo eager to know the drama. It kinda sucked at the time cuz i so wanted to be that cool girl who moved to az and had a blasty poo.. and i did (obviously)... :) but now it just makes me laugh. And now it seems like EVERYONE is hitting their oops button and peein positive. I swear theres something in the water there should be some FFA Warning on every water bottle, faucet, and refrigerator door "DRINKING WATER CAN CAUSE PREGNANCY WHEN COMBINED WITH INTERCOURSE"... then in fine print "WHERE PROTECTION DUMBASS... or to be age appropriate... STUPIDHEAD"!!
Ok, so honestly all goofyness aside. Unexpected pregnancies totally blow. BUT when that cute little face is here looking up at you for the first time.. all those "OH SHIT OH SHIT OH SHIT" feelings go right out that hospital window. Theres nothing like looking at your first kid for the first time... no words could truely describe it so i'll leave it at unforgettable.
And yea at first, after that honey moon faze is over and you still haven't gotten more than 2 hours of sleep in a row for 3 weeks... you're gonna wanna cry... and you're gonna cry... hard! But I promise, promise you no matter what people say,... it does get easier. You will feel like you're caring for, bending over backwards for this pooping eating crying machine. But after about two-ish months, that little machine will start to smile and that smile will be the most exciting stress relieving experience, screw massages, pedicures or beaches. From then on, things will be lookin up! :)
So... girls, friends, family, strangers... I've said it before and i'll say it again... If and when you're sittin on that porceline chair of dome staring at that plus sign, smiley face, or *insert alternative here*, wishing the seat would just suck you in and eat you. First go ahead and take a poo, i believe thats why they made it the pee test so that when you find out atleast ur already on the toilet so it's okay to crap ur pants!... then second really really think about that moment i described and what if it was the only time you could experience that and you just threw it away and think about why, and who is this child going to be. Because, i believe strongly that every single thing we do, or that comes our way, has a reason, a solution, and a plan. It's a decision, that only you can make, which ever you chose, I think as long as you are doing what is going to make you happy now and in the future then you're making the right choice. Good luck chicas!... And this was just the intro. Look out world.... Sarah Spears got a blog and she's not afraid to use it! ;D
