You Know You're a Real Mom If... (part 2)

Between ones that you guys helped me add and some others I've thought of, I have more to add to the list. If you didn't see the first list-here it is- So here we go on our second part of the list...
You know you're a real mom if...
  • Walking around with a stained shoulder and reeking of sour milk is ok. Why would you change? You're not going anywhere, you haven't showered yet anyway and that would just creat more laundry. (Devri and Jessica)
  • Hot dogs and ketchup no longer gross you out. Actually, they're a staple! (Cami)
  • You find poop under your fingernails an hour after changing a poopy diaper.(Harmony)
  • You let your toddler run around naked because cleaning pee off the carpet is easier than getting him to lay down for 30 seconds to put a diaper on. (Loni-so you!)
  • Picking boogers out of someone else's nose is a daily occurance (and let's be honest, sometimes it's your husbands nose-so gross!) (Ali)
  • You join the gym for the free child care (Cyndi)
  • You allow your child to get hurt doing dangerous things just so she won't do it again (Kelly)
  • Your child throws up all over and YOU are the last thing to get cleaned up (Kursten)
  • Your child is yelling at you while you are on the phone and it takes the person on the other side of the line to tell you your attention is needed elsewhere (Michelle)
  • You shower and get dressed everyday. Sometimes it's just not until 5:30. (Shelbie)
  • Children playing in silence sends you running before a blood curtling scream does
  • You have ever closed your eyes for a prayer in church and had a hard time opening them again
  • Losing weight means going from a D cup to a B cup
  • To feel sexy is to shave your legs (and if you're Mormon, putting on silky G's)
  • As far as you're concerned Victoria's Secret only sales nice bras and smelly lotion
  • Constants on your grocery list are bread, milk, wipes and chocolate
  • You blog (which means you now take pictures of the most mundane and everyday things and post it as breaking news)
I know there are more floating around in your brains! Keep 'em comin'.

You can change a diaper at 3am with your eyes closed and not miss a beat.
