    When you are finally at a all adult social gathering and you spend the whole time comparing pregnancy, labor and delivery stories over your first alcoholic beverage in ages...:huh: :drinker:

    When your toddler is going to puke on an airplane (or other confined space that you don't want to get messy) and your first instinct is to try and catch it in your hand. :ohwell:

    :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: BAHAHAHA I actually laughed out loud at this one. That is THE moment you realize you're a mommy. When you're willing to catch vomit in your bare hands. :laugh: And we've ALL been there. :smile:


    done this but not on a plane.

    You accidentally leave the bathroom door open when friends are over, just because its a habit. :embarassed:

    Your DH starts talking to you about paying rent with the 'Grover voice.' :indifferent:

    Your least favorite phrase becomes 'Your turn!' hollered triumphantly by your husband from your toddler's room. (Poopy diaper changes are on rotation)


    I leave the bathroom door open all the time at home, I'm just glad that I don't do that in public, how about you know you can't go to the bathroom without little feet following you to the potty. Oh yeah, you know it, my hubby says, honey it's your turn to change Jacob, and wouldn't you know it he's pooped!!!!!!!

    When you are changing a poopy diaper and one of the little poop pebbles rolls out of the diaper onto the floor and you just lean down to pick it up. Getting poop on your hands is far from the grossest things you've done. :bigsmile:

    When you go to work wearing "Dora the Explorer" band-aids on your fingers or you eat off a "Barbie" plate.....:laugh:

    Yup - but in our case it's Barbie band-aids and Dora the Explorer plates - that is too funny!!

    When everyone else is budgeting money for some party or end of summer get together and you're scratching your head trying to figure out how to budget for school supplies and clothes because all the little one's clothes suddenly don't fit anymore! (her jeans look like they should be on a street walker they're so tight!)

    You wear a shirt and remember EXACTLY what the stain on it was from.... and you feel like it's ok to wear still because it wasn't YOUR fault that it got there! :bigsmile:

    It's fun shopping for school supplies when they are little! My baby is starting Kindergarden this year. (the 26th) My older daughter is starting 8th grade - not so much fun then!

    How about when you are standing in line at the cashier, photocopier and you start rocking side to side. Not only have I done it many times but I've seen others do it. You don't even realize your doing it - especially when you are tired!:yawn:
    I catch myself doing this ALL OF THE TIME!! Will we ever stop??

    My youngest will be 25 next month and getting married next year ... and I still do the rocking back and forth thing.

    You have to be quiet when you are intimate with hubby cause you don't want to wake up the kids.

    I just put foam earplugs in their ears while they sleep... quiet isn't really an option. :devil: :wink:

    You know when you have kids when.......... you can't wait until naptime when your little one is asleep so you can TAKE A SHOWER ALONE and get things done!

    You know you have kids when you wake up in the morning and you realise you are in the single bed, get out and look in your own room and see them both sprawled across the double bed but you are not sure exactly how you got there or what happened......!!!!

    You have a king size bed, but can't roll over in the night, cause they are all in it!

    :tongue: Still do the rocking thing!

    *Another favorite...I tell the dogs to use there "walking feet" in the house or talk to them in my "Mommy voice"

    Agreed! A quiet house equals instant panic!
