You know you are a mom when...

... You get so excited about finding Juicy Juice for 1.50 each you not only buy 10 but you call everyone you know and tell them...


... You have ever gone to the doctor and turned in new patient paperwork covered in one of your little artists finest creations...

... you return home from the grocery store and find two opened boxes of snacks and a half eaten apple...



... you realize the only surface in your house clean enough to take pictures of these things is your washing machine... only because you are simultaneously doing laundry, putting away groceries, cleaning the kitchen, and getting the baby ready for bed...

... you have ever been at the grocery store and realized the contents of your purse includes... crayons, cars, balls, forks, keurig tea and coffee pods, gerber snacks, a dog tail (halloween costume), a rather large mirror (supposed to be used at work for speech therapy but keeps my toddler very occupied), but not your wallet... AWESOME...



...you have been in a meeting and reached in your pocket for a pen only to pull out a pacifier...

... you drive all the way home from work and don't even realize until you get there that you have been listening to Barney... and your child is NOT in the car...

Anyone else have any to add? I know you do!!!

  1. Haha, wow this is all so true!!! However, my purse is Alexys Jo's diaper bag and I can still never find what I need for her nor myself! Mel

  2. I've been trying so hard to think of the perfect thing to respond to this. Do you know you're a mom when you're too tired to form complete thoughts? Today I knew I was a Mom when I had to move books and Little People to make the bed. And that was my bed!!!

    I thought of you today. Kate and I were in Target and went down the goldfish aisle. :)
