the perils of multitasking

i went to target the other day with only the three youngest of my children. my oldest had a birthday party the next day, and so i was on research for the present he wanted to get for his friend. the way to target was somewhat treacherous, being unknown to me and full of road work, but we made it there eventually. the baby was wailing when we arrived, so i put her in the baby wrap and started nursing as soon as i could. the other two were in the stroller and i was walking around for probably 5 or so minutes before realizing that nursing was a bit more painful than it should have been. i finally looked down and my daughter was sucking away but not getting any milk because she was "latched" about an inch away from where she needed to be!

so i came home from the store with a birthday present, sunday pants, a jack-o-lantern t-shirt, and a hickey on my breast. awesome.
