I now tie my own shoes in double knots.
I add a y or ie to the end of dog constantly.

What are some thoughts or actions you've caught yourself doing for yourself, just like you would for your child?

I poured a half a glass of water for my husband the other day. I also find myself saying potty a lot. I guess these things become habit after a while.

I announce when I have to potty too!

You know you're a mom when you turn to your husband and say "Mommy has to go........." Then you realize what you're saying and figure he doesn't care that you have to go pee. It's also an indication of a really long day. LOL

When out with friends or a group, I constantly look around to make sure everyone is still with us; like checking to make sure all my children are still with me in the store.

I haven't caught myself doing that yet!

You know your a mom when ...

1. You wonder why it is quite.

2. You can wipe snot on your pants.

3. You leave the bathroom door open when at a friends.

4. You can sleep through a bomb but as soon as mom is whispered your wide awake.

5. You know all the words to Spongebob, Bob the builder, M-i-c-k-e-y m-o-u-s-e, and so on.

6. You say words twice ... dog dog cat cat bye bye and so on.

7. You find your self straightening up at a friends house or worse the grocery store.

8. Mcdonalds or Chucky Cheese is a place to relax.

Those are just a few ... My great grand mother always said once you have kids ... You sleep when your not tired, pee when you don't have to, and eat when your not hungery.

You have a wise great grandma. I am laughing so hard at 5. Hubby and I got an anniversary (kidless) fishing trip and all we could sing was "the phone, the phone is rining" from Wonder Pets.

I'm not a mother, but I have spent a lot of time around small children, because of the nursery school my mother used to run.

Once when wanting to discuss Mom's birthday with my step-father and not wanting to blow a surprise, I asked Dave if he'd gotten my mother a C-A-K-E yet. DUH, Mom can SPELL!!!!!

One time (not a shining moment...but I'll share...) we were at a restaurant and the waitress put my plate down in front of me and I let out with a REALLY sugary sweet (and really loud, obnoxious...) "GOOD JOB! YOU DIDN'T SPILL!!!!"::hangs her head in shame::

I cut up my own meat before I eat.

I find myself saying things I would have NEVER thought I would say "Daniel, stop licking your shoe." "Jonah, stop choking your brother." "Sam, don't touch the cat there..." And the list goes on and on...


myLot reputation of 96/100. howellslj (863)   ranked 344 out of 12,154 in parenting  3 months ago

Things you never thought you'd say... mine are "cats don't eat crackers" and stop licking your shoe... kissing caterpillars... and We don't eat snakes.

I know I'm a Mom when my patience got longer. I need it so that I won't yell at my kids the moment they made a silly mistake.


myLot reputation of 96/100. howellslj (863)   ranked 344 out of 12,154 in parenting  3 months ago

Lol! That's a good one to have.

You know you're a mom when you know lots of barney songs! Before I dont have any idea about barney and friends, their episodes and songs. but when i had my first baby, it turned upside down!!! When he watch barney, he keeps imitating the movements and he sings the song and believe it or not, i also know the moves and the songs!!

I just love watching barney with my baby boy!

You are awakened by a child at 2 in the morning snuggling between you and your hubby. You hear "Mommy!!" from across the house and suddenly realize that means you. Or you hear your moms words coming out of your mouth. lol


myLot reputation of 96/100. howellslj (863)   ranked 344 out of 12,154 in parenting  3 months ago

It's scary to realize you say things that your mom says, I find myself repeating my Dad.

You don't want to miss out on watching the grandbabies either or wait until they get there to spend the time window washing.
