Do you ever feel like the worst mom ever? After this little incident, I sure did. I wanted to cry more than he did. There might have been a few tears shed. :( I felt horrible. Well, he was fast asleep in my arms and I was looking at his hands. I noticed that his fingernails were way too long. So, being the good mom that I am, I decided to cut them. I was doing pretty good until the big thumbnail. I thought I had the clippers under the nail. I did, but apparently I had some of his little skin, too. I clipped and then heard a burst of crying. It didn't last long. Thank goodness for a great sleeper. Don't worry because more crying came later as I cleaned it off and bandaged it. By that time Devin was home and I made him hold him while I mended the wound. By looking at Devin's face you would have thought I killed him. Well, needless to say, I felt like the worst mother on the planet! I'm glad I have a tough son!

I know the feeling...There are far worse things! But it does feel like the end of the world when something like that happens. I feel your pain.
I know how you feel! I did the same thing to Jake. Good thing kids are resilient...and forgetful!!! By the way...I took Jake in to get his pictures taken, and a girl named Karly(I think) took them. She said she did your guys' wedding pics. Small world aye!
Same here, I did it too. Boy did I cry like crazy. Haven't done it since. Parker is so dang cute. I wish we lived closer to come see. We are acutally going to be in Cedar this next weekend. If you happen to be around give us a call. Love you guys.
I have also done that and vowed to never cut their fingernails again. I seriously made James do it to the twins for like 4 months. I got way braver and now fingernails are no longer a problem. I seriously think I should get an award or something! He is way cute and it is so good to see you guys doing awesome. Congrats on the beautiful little boy.
