Try both of them on again, then bend over. Not a lady-like squat with your knees together. A "holy shit, what is that in my child's mouth!?!?!?!?!" bend. Both dresses are cute, but nobody is going to remember what they look like when you flash your butt to the whole world if they're too short for dealing with babies.
I have a whole part of my closet that's now devoted to dresses that weren't too short before I had a kid, but way too short now. It's not that they're inappropriate because I'm a mom. They're inappropriate because I find myself in the oddest positions where modesty isn't really an option.
My vote is for #2 because if somebody spills a drink, gets icing all over you, or anything else, it'll hide the grime better.

Haha good idea! The blue dress passes the mom "bend" test because it hits right about my knees. I'll test the other one when I try it on again today.
And #2 is like a chiffon type fabric over a lining, so it would be hard to get stuff out of too. I can't win.
