Diaper Dilemmas

Why is it that I appear to be that frantic, unprepared, inexperienced mom more with my second child more than my first? With Max I would take an hour planning every outing and making sure we had everything. With Sam, we just grab and go, often leaving essentials. One goal I've had lately is to see the bright side and laugh at these incidents rather than stress or cry.
Last Saturday we went to the DM Farmer's Market then the Science Center. Sam woke up at the science center and wanted to nurse. I wasn't crazy about nursing him in public but found a nice bench by a restroom in a more secluded area. I went to pick him out of his carseat and wham - super mess. He had leaked out of his diaper on his clothes - car seat - everything. Conviently, the bathrooms were right there so I wheeled my tank of a double stroller in and set to change him and practically bathe him in baby wipes. Sam giggled and thought this was great fun. I immediately realized that I didn't have a change of clothes for Sam but didnt' worry too much since it was so hot and we weren't going to stay much longer. However, after I got him cleaned up I then realized I didn't have any diapers for Sam either....just a 4T pull-up for Max. With no other options than wrapping him in paper towels, I pulled on the pull-up and told him we would be potty training early and not to worry too much about that cool sensation when he pottied. Sam chuckled and felt quite proud in his brothers pull up that almost went up to his chin. I then nursed him and received a few odd looks when the huge pull-up and tiny toes were exposed from under my nursing cover.

The next day - Lincoln's b-day party....guess what? No leaky diaper but again no diapers in the diaper bag. A good friend came to my rescue...but you think I would have a learned. A friend recommended I keep diapers in the car....maybe I need to put two on Sam each time - just like a spare tire - so we always have one :)
