Worst mom award today goes to me 😔
I have an awful cold and awful cough and sore throat. So I made some tea. Was feeding n breakfast. Took a sip of my tea and got distracted and just placed it down on the counter right now next to n.... of course he lunged at it and stuck his hand in it. He starts screaming I’m freaking out. Ran his hand under cold water and slathered it in this cream my mom sent me for when you burn yourself cooking. He stopping crying almost as soon as the cold water hit him and his skin looks fine- I keep checking it every half hour- it’s not even reddish - but my god I was freaking out. I think I startled him with my screaming and it was hot but not boiling hot so I think the heat surprised him but didn’t burn him. THANK GOD. I feel awful.

Ahhh it happens addymac it happened to my cousins 15 month old over Christmas with a cup of coffee. She ended up being totally fine but she pulled it down on her chest. Not the worst mom at all...

@starzia R gets a lot of positive attention. Mostly old people will say their kids had red or they have grandkids or they wish they’d have a grandkid with red hair.everyone thinks her hair will stay. We only had one person say “ginger baby,” which I’m assuming wasn’t positive.

@starzia That’s sad then - by now they should accept it. I never thought I’d want a red headed kid, but we love it. Once you see it, it’s adorable. And, I like that it so much different than my first. Even if it changes, I think it’s fun to see how it might change. It’s fun watching kids grow and change - I love seeing every new mole on T.

I can't believe people are rude about the red hair! That's crazy! My brother has blond hair with red tint so people did always comment but I don't remember any negatives. His beard is full on red though which cracks me up because his hair is mostly blonde. I wish people would mind their own business

Any baby’s eyes change color? T’s have been blue since birth. R’s are still blue, but I have no experience of when they start to change. They’re still a bright blue. H has green eyes and I was hoping for something different since I came from a family that all had blue eyes. They would have changed by 3 months I think.
