top 10 ways you know you're a mom

I've been doing some thinking and I've come up with my top 10 ways that you know you're a mom...

10. you can look under any piece of furniture in your house and find at least one pacifier

9. the words to "Jesus Loves Me"- "Head, Shoulders, Knees and Toes" - "I'm a Little Teapot" - or any other "children's" songs are constantly stuck in your head

8. you know more classical music because of baby einstein than you ever knew from music class

7. the last "real" book you read consisted of 3 sentences and a bunch of pictures

6. you find yourself talking baby talk to people who aren't your child... or a baby...

5. you use your baby's lotion before you run out the door

4. you just don't care that there is spit up or a little poo on your shirt

3. you fall asleep each night to the hum of a baby monitor... or maybe that cricket chirping outside the window of the baby monitor

2. you have the super human ability to carry an already heavy baby in an even heavier car seat unbelievable distances- like from the car to the front of Target

1. you finally understand what your mom was talking about all those years when she said she'd love you no matter what

You're going to have some GREAT arm muscles carrying sweet John Mark around in his car seat. Owen and I won't even recognize you when we come back b/c you'll be so 'pumped up' (yet very hot- let's not forget that part).

I'm finally understanding what you meant at the end of your pregnancy when you said you were just really uncomfortable. I'm already hoping our baby comes early just so my back can have some relief (in the 24/7 sense that is).
