When your first baby is born, you’re kind of a rookie at everything. But when your second baby is born, you become a seasoned pro of motherhood. And such is the case with Carrie Underwood, who just started sharing the ups and downs of parenting two young boys — Isaiah, 4 years old, and Jacob, 2 months old — with her fans and followers on Twitter over the past few days.
First their was her confusion over Isaiah’s expanding vocabulary:

Then there was her attitude of gratitude for her husband Mike Fisher and the gift of peace and quiet he gave her:
I wanna publicly thank the hubs for taking the kiddos and letting this tired mama sleep a couple extra hours this morning. If any of you fellas out there could do this every once-in-a-while for your ladies, lemme tell you, it makes all the difference in the world!

My own kid just called me “Carefree Underwear.” This is basically elementary school all over again.

Finally, there was Underwood’s terrible, horrible, no good, very bad day. How bad? Well, there was a naked, screaming Jacob in a restaurant, and a stranger who offered to buy Underwood a drink. That bad.
Thanks to the nice lady who offered to buy me a drink at lunch today after I carried my naked, poo covered, screaming baby up the stairs and back to my table. It was a rookie mistake leaving the diaper bag at the table and only taking a diaper and 2 wipes. Never again.
