    You go into Victoria Secrets to buy a cute HOODIE and hear from across the strore (in the best and loudest "look how smart I am mom" 4yo boys voice) "HAHAHA LOOK MOMMY, THESE ARE FOR BOOBIES!" only to look over and see your son waving around a bright pink bra with a big 'ol grin on his face. 8-) Yea, we haven't been back there yet, lol.

    LOL!!!! My son the other day was talking to be as I went potty...he said "Mom are you sitting down?" I said yup... he said "yeah....thats what girls do" Then proceeds to tell me that he sits down when he has to poop...everyone sits when they poop... I about died... its one of those moments you wish you could have recorded :laugh:

    <---Aunty to a 3yr old and 2wk old.

    When you say 'Ta' so much you end up saying it to everyone, including your university teachers.

    It's 3am and you hear knocking on your bedroom door.

    You wake up in the morning and discover that someone is in your bed.

    Your bed feels huge, cold, and empty without them.

    While walking around the shops you makes weird noises and flap your arms around to hear them laugh.

    You had to get changed after burping the baby because they aimed at the spot where your clothes WEREN'T covered! (I was late to class sooooo many times)

    When they drag your favourite skirt around, or wear it as a dress, and ruins it. But you don't mind because they're happy.

    When a dog/animal tries to attack your little one and you overcome your fear to protect them, no matter what happens to you.

    When your own 7 year old son tells you "daddy, that was a soft fart. Like a girl's fart."

    I have two boys, ages 9 & 11 now.

    When you find yourself saying things like:
    You have to wipe your bottom when you're done pooping. You can't just pull your pants up.
    Stop peeing off the back porch. You're only allowed to do that when we're camping.
    Stop riding the dog like a horse.
    The dog is not a football...stop trying to tackle her.
    Stop humping the dog.
    Please stop playing with your pee pee and trying to make it "big".
    You need to go potty BEFORE you get into the bath tub.
    Stop sticking (insert inappropriate object here) up your nose.
    Please don't drink out of the dog's water dish.

    Or when a friend's much younger kid squeezes your boobs while you're holding him and it doesn't even phase you.

    When you know all the characters on Yo Gabba Gabba

    When you make a concious choice to turn the puking kid towards you as it is easier to clean puke off your shirt than the carpet.

    -when you catch yourself saying in a high excitied voice "good job big guy/girl" to other adults
    -when you pick something out of your kids nose and wipe it on you jeans... gross but ya totally happened at the mall
    -when your purse has diapers wipes clothes and toys in it and you forget your wallet at home on the desk
    -when your little one offers you a bite of their food and you take it no matter how pre slobbered it is because they are learning to share and wont get their little hand out of your face till you do
    -when your sitting in church in the front pew and your (then) nursing child thinks it is a game to try and pull your shirt up, down, open so they can nurse and you almost flash your pastor and the guys playing music.

    ....When you find yourself standing in the supermarket and you're rocking the trolley backwards and forwards like you're trying to get a baby to sleep.

    Like others, I also sometimes spend longer in the bathroom than necessary just to get 2 minutes peace, before the kids (and usually the dog) come barging in!!

    I also find random toys or packets of kids sweets in my bag, just in case!!

    Loving this thread

    -When you know all the songs that Hannah Montana sang and which episode each song came out in.

    -You have a favorite character on Phineas and Ferb

    -You are jazzed about the next Disney movie coming out to theaters because you have been hearing about it on Disney channel.

    -You get as frustrated as your 6 year old because Amy Duncan (Good Luck Charlie) is pregnant and the episode cuts off right as the Dr is about to say what the baby is.

    -You watch episodes of iCarly, Good Luck Charlie, Phineas and Ferb ect...and realize that you are the only one in the room.

    -When a friend or family member uses a negative word or phrase, and you say 'we don't use that kind of language, do we?'

    -Knowing that even though you would like to shower/potty/read in peace, you will miss the interruptions when they are too cool to talk to mom.


    so many more....

    Also when you start singing the backback song when you see a backpack.

    Always singing the backpack song or I'm the map! Gotta love Dora!

    When you open the cupboard doors and find random treats, legos, magnets, etc but the lid you need is missing!
    When you say "nite nite" to people at bed time.
    When the word "NO" becomes the number 1 word in your vocabulary! I should count how many times in a day....
    When you know what a "Sproutlet" or "Sprout Candy" is

    When your 3 year old asks you for more chocolate covered raisins and you actually say, "no, eat the ones you were using to pretend you have boobies."

    because only your child can do something weird enough to make that sentence come out of your mouth.

    When your wife comes in the living room, sees you in a tiara and no kids around (because they went to get something else to put on you) and she doesn't even flinch.

    When you can tell people which flavor of baby food is the best.

    When you look forward to work as it means you get to "rest".

    I know I'm a Mom when

    1) I come home from work and my two youngest sons greet me with a hug
    2) When my 23 yo son, who towers over me, bends over to give me a hug
    3) When my boys tell me they love me
    4) When I look at them and think "These wonderful kids came out of me!"
    5) When I'm sad and they console me
    6) When I receive compliments on how good my boys are

    I could go on and on!

    also,w hen you get blood on your favorite shirt from your child falling and biting through their lip , you've cleaned smeared poop off the floor and various body parts (of theirs not yours) and proceeded to wash little underwear out with whatever soap was handy (of course it happened to be your FACIAL soap)
    and STILL considered it a pretty good day.

    PLUS...you contemplate buying stock in band aid and neosporin because your son is an accident waiting to happen...
    he has scabs, scrapes and cuts in various stages of healing...
    yesterday he fell and bit through his lip...
    today he tripped and cut himself along the knee about two inches long and almost wide enough for stitches.. (not quite but almost)
    this is not mentioning the assortment of scrapes, scabs, and knicks he has on the rest of his legs , elbows, toes, etc... from falling, bumping, jumping off of, and whatever the heck else he does to get so banged up everyday...

    ....when you laugh hysterically every single time you see the preview of the zebra singing his "Afro circus Afro circus polka dot polka dot polka dot Afro circus" song on the latest Madagascar movie. Even if you're the only one in the room.
    ....and when you are looking forward to seeing this movie more than your five year old.

    Yep. I'm a momma.
