You know you're a mom when...

• You know you're a mom when you joyfully anticipate the fact that Pampers is releasing a more absorbent, thinner diaper AND you know the release date!!!

• You know you're a mom when you pick up your naked baby when she's drenched herself in pee only to get the pee all over you instead of her getting cold while you clean up the changing table.

• You know you're a mom when you anticipate your child's next poop like it was fireworks on the Fourth of July or Christmas morning.

• You know you're a mom when 3 hours goes from a nap to a full night's sleep.

• You know you're a mom when you stand in the isle with the pacifiers debating for 20 minutes which is the best kind to buy and if she'll like them or not.

• You know you're a mom when you take a million and one pictures of your baby laying on a pillow.

• You know you're a mom when you text the babysitter 100 times while you go get dinner AND the babysitter is your mom.

• You know you're a mom when you say "I need to grab my purse" and accidentally grab the diaper bag instead.

• You know you're a mom when you go in to the store for one thing and you come out with 10 things that are all baby-related.

• You know you're a mom when you slam the person next to you in the chest whenever you break abruptly in traffic.

• You know you're a mom when you get excited when there's a sale on baby clothes at Babies R Us.

• You know you're a mom when you hear a baby cry at a store and go running BUT you left the baby at home with your mom.

• You know you're a mom when you can make a bottle and change a diaper all while you're half asleep.

• You know you're a mom when you say the pictures of your baby right after birth are cute, even though everyone knows that all babies look like aliens for the first day or so.

I'm sure I have a ton more of these but I'm too tired to think of any right now. The joys of being a mom. Haha.
