Pop princess Britney Spears isn't winning any votes for mother of the year. The latest incident occured as Spears was leaving the Ritz-Carlton in New York.

She was carrying Sean Preston in one arm and a drink in her other hand. Britney tripped over her long pants and Sean Preston lost his hat as his head went backwards. Thankfully, all the dancing lessons paid off and Brit was able to keep her balance preventing any serious harm to herself or Sean Preston.

The trip and near fall comes on the heel or other allegations questioning her parenting skills including having Sean Preston in a front-facing child safety seat (state law in California requires children of a certain age and/or weight to be in rear-facing safety seats), a nanny dropping Sean Preston when his high chair malfunctioned and Brit driving with the newborn on her lap.

Last week, on the Late Show with David Letterman, she confirmed to Dave that she is expecting child number two. Well, at least practice makes perfect.
