Spare a Square

Life with baby brings all kinds of new adventures. Most seem reasonable and you laugh after each one - today I had one I didn't expect. I've been stranded in my bathroom without any TP before. And nothing is more fun than torturing the person stranded as they BEG you to go get them a new roll. So today with crying baby in hand I began the process I've already repeated many times - changing a diaper. Now with naked dirty crying baby I reached for the baby wipe...uh-oh empty. I was alone with no one to call to for help to "spare a square"! I swear I opened this baby wipe container no less than 5 days ago and its already empty! JR is an obsessive cleaner but I had no idea it would cost me so much in baby wipes. So, in this case to solve my dilemma, I put the naked dirty crying baby in the tub. My options seemed very limited. Olivia and I have already discussed the ROI of peeing in a brand new diaper 30 seconds after I've changed her (or before she's all sealed up even). Now I'm going to have to discuss with JR the ROI on baby wipes! This is ridiculous.
