I put Abby Kate down at 7pm last night, her standard bedtime on a day where she does not take a nap. She conked right out and was still asleep at 9:40 this morning! I went to check on her several times, though I was not worried due to her sleeping so much later now that she is not taking a nap. Finally, when I went in at 9:45 she was awake. It smelled strongly like urine and as I snuggled up next to her as per our morning routine, I was soaked too. I pulled back her covers to realize that her bed, blanket, quilt, from side to side were soaked. Her jammies were ring-able. I gasped. She is a huge wetter at night. I have not even attempted to start potty training at night, though by day it is mastered, due to how wet she wakes up every morning. She wears a diaper and plastic pants over that and I STILL change sheets most mornings. But this was different. She said, "Momma, I am really cold." I asked her to stand up and let me get her out of her clothes and into some warm clean ones and then I realized my error to my horror.
I had not put on a diaper. Not to mention the plastic pants. Hmmmm....I asked her forgiveness and actually laughed a little and she got giggly and just sweetly said, "I forgive you. And Mom? Can I get my warm jammies on now?" Sure baby. I am an idiot.

Thank you for keeping it real! We've all had these moments!It's nice to hear I'm not alone!! You're an awesome Mommy!
This reminds me of a friend of mine who sent her daughter to pre-school in a pretty dress for their choir performance a few weeks ago. After school the teacher pulled her aside and asked her if she was aware that her daughter had come to school without underwear on! She was MORTIFIED. :)
Oh we do the no diaper at night, church with no panties etc.!!! The more you have the more you forget!!
