    When you no longer call your spouse by their name but instead you call them "mommy" or "daddy"

    Of course you could just have an odd relationship and still do this without kids... :laugh:

    When you are pouring punch at holiday functions and you always put about 1/4 cup in every glass, even the adult's glasses.

    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:

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

    When your husband passes the baby to you mid-baby-grunt & says "that ones YOURS" :sick:

  • 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:

    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:

    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!
