Since having a baby (who is now a toddler)......

1. Sleeping in is a thing of the past.
2. Nice clothes don't stay nice for long....a stain on my shirt is so minor now. (I'm just happy to be dressed in something other than my pajamas)
3. Even if my toddler does sleep through the night doesn't mean that I do. I still get up and check to make sure he's still breathing.
4. Nick Jr.....well, it's just a part of our lives now.
5. I may not know the name or words to the most popular song these days, but ask me to sing a Nick Jr. song and I can nail it!
6. I often find myself humming children's songs all through out the day.
7. Catching throw up in my hand....no big deal cause I don't want to have to clean the carpet.
8. I don't mind watching the same cartoon (TS) over and over.....If you saw the excitement on his face you would understand why. :)
9. I notice EVERYTHING that remotely has to do with Toy Story these days.
10. Butt dialing? Nope. BABY dialing. Sorry about that...mom...dad...Karla...911!

The list could go on and on. And no matter how long this list becomes, I wouldn't trade my life for anything!! Being a mom is the BEST reward I've ever been given.

  1. i loooooooove this list!! it's perfect! i was confused by the nick jr. comment, but then the next one explained it when i figured out you were talking about the tv channel, not your husband! :-) i thought you were referring to malachi as a nick jr.!! i, too, sing beauty and the beast and all sorts of kids' songs all day long, even when summer's not around! love the catching throw up in your hand-so true--easier to wash your hands than change the bedding or clean the carpet. . .i love you and i love your son! can't wait to celebrate his SECOND birthday!

  2. Love, love, love this post!! I'm basically just going to ditto everything Andrea said! :) Right down to the Nick Jr. comment! I LOVE your little man! Thanks for letting me get to be a part of his life! *tear*

    Also, I may steal this idea...only I have a feeling, it would look a lot like yours!

  3. Thanks girlies. I'm sure our lists are all so similar and we could probably go on and on for days!!!
