You know you're a mom when...

Hooded puppy dog towels have replaced Thirsty Thursday.



You no longer carry a purse, instead throw your essentials in the diaper bag.

You cheer when your gassy baby finally takes a big poop.

You have mastered going to the bathroom, making a bottle, feeding and putting the babe back to bed at 3am with no lights on.

Your conversations with your husband primarily have to do with naps, diapers and baby food.

Little man jackets melt your heart.



You could live on Diet Coke and string cheese.

You can't read I Love You Forever without sobbing.

You sing "Clean Up, Clean Up..." when you are cleaning alone.

Even on the hardest/fussiest of days, you miss your babies the second you put them to bed.

The pure joy shown on kids' faces make everything in the world right.



Picking your child's nose is an every day occurance and you celebrate when you finally get that boogie out.

You have worn clothes with dried spit up on them after you noticed it, didn't care & wore it anyways.

Your heart could very well burst into a million pieces when you are called "mama", even if they have been saying it for the past 6 months :)


Feel free to add your own :)

I hope everyone has a wonderful weekend!

I love this! I too miss Carter when he goes to bed even on the fussiest of days.

I also sing the clean up song all by myself.

You know you are a mom when ... you know you need new clothes but instead buy things for your child.

I agree with all of these!!!

I will add, "you know you're a Mom when you have to heat up your coffee AT LEAST 3 times in the morning" :)

And I need to learn the "clean up" song. Why haven't I heard of this??

Love all of them!

You know your a mom when...you sit on your couch with tears in your eye as you watch you baby learn and grow before your eyes!

HAHAH!!! Love this list!!! & Henry in the hooded towel is so adorable!

Christina said...

Is that Holden in that coat!? He looks just like Henry! Oh and to add to the list...your baby that now eats solids has a real solid poop for the first time and you immediately grab your cell phone so you can send a photo of it to your husband who is at work. HAHA. Oh and you discuss the color of your baby's poop on a daily basis...never thought poop would become such a big part of my life. So glamorous. :)

Kaymee... "Clean up, clean up, everybody everywhere...clean up, clean up, everybody do your share." :)

People will think they are twins when they get a little older!

"Even on the hardest/fussiest of days, you miss your babies the second you put them to bed." That's the absolute truth.

You know your a mom when just the sight of your sleeping baby brings tears to your eyes because you're so overwhelmed with love.
