For the record I have actually done both of those things but I have another one that tops them all.
When Belli was just a wee little babe (probably around 3 or 4 months) I took her to the mall with me for a little outing. Obviously she was still in the small car seats that pop into the base and the stroller that goes with it. So when we got there I just took the car seat out and popped it into the stroller and off we went.
We were there for a while and it was sort of hot in the mall. She started getting fussy and I could tell she was uncomfortable so I unbuckled the car seat straps so I could take her jacket off and so she would have some room to move around. Then we walked around for a little whil and I got a little bit of shopping done.
About and hour later I decide to leave. So I walk back out to my car, pop the car seat out of the stroller and put it back in the base in the car. I put the stroller back in my car, got in the drivers seat, cranked the car up, and we were on our way home.
I was horrified at what I saw when I went to get Belli out of her car seat when we got home. I had forgotten to buckle her back up after I took the straps off in the mall! I had driven all the way home with her unstrapped. All I could think about were the what-ifs. It scared me so bad I was shaking and I just sat in the car with her a boohooed like a little baby. It was awful.
So there you go. My big mommy whoopsie! Wow, it felt nice to get that off my chest!
