My Big Scare

So, this morning I went in to get Baby, and as I was changing her diaper I saw this and my heart started racing…

The picture isn’t great because I was trying to feed her at that moment, but I didn’t want to wait. I was freaking out a little and needed to text a picture to her daddy at work so I could get his help. I called him right after the text and, now a bit frantic, told him her toe was black! He looked at the picture and I could tell he was trying to sound calm as he asked me if she was acting like it hurt. I said, “Not really,” and he told me to try squeezing it gently. She didn’t even react, so he told me to put my thumb on the nail and gently squeeze again. When I did, my thumb nail sank into the black a little, and I realized…
it was chocolate!
Now, I promise I really do bathe my child. But last night, after bath time, I made brownies. I must have gotten some batter on her toe…

Boy did I feel sheepish. I let out a shaky and relieved laugh, tried to get my heart rate back to normal, and apologized to her daddy for scaring him.

Have you ever had an experience like this, or am I the only one?

ttfn,

  1. When I first glanced at that picture, I was more than a bit concerned. I am very glad it was harmless though :)
