    You Know You're Exhausted (And A Mom) When...

    you put the kids down for naps, make yourself something to eat, sit at the counter to eat your lunch, and 10 minutes goes by before you realize you are watching Sesame Street. by yourself. as a 26 year old. ::

      when you tell people when you have to go potty

      when you cut you hubby's food into tiny pieces and tell him "chew please"

      when youre in line at the grocery store rocking your cart to quiet the baby...and there's no baby

          I did that with the empty wagon the other day while I was talking with my brother and the kids were playing in the snow!

          You're driving by yourself and don't realize that you are listening to the kids' songs.

            You can name all the cartoons and the characters names.
            When you talk a strangers ear off because it's the first adult conversation you had all day.

              i could tell you something, but its really kinda embarrassing....

              once when i was pumping BM i couldnt figure out why it wasnt pumping right. turns out i was holding an empty baby bottle on my boob. i somehow managed to hook it up backwards...

              talk about exhausted.

                ..when you find you are using a toddlers vocabulary while talking to adults, ie: Owie boo boo, blankie, sippy, etc...

                and if we go out to a restaurant my husband is happy if I don't cut his food into tiny pieces.
                I see little people.

                  you're sitting in the rocking chair while DD falls asleep, and end up falling asleep yourself, right there in the chair, for a whopping two hours!

                  bonus points if you get up and come out to the kitchen and end up finishing your child's dinner
                  Hee hee! Look, I have a signature!

                    When your husband brings home the baby's prescription and when you read the label you wonder why they would put the baby's prescription under your husbands name and then realize that ... oh yeah, you named the baby after your husband. .

                    Really, this happened yesterday. I feel like an idiot.

                        When on Saturday at 6:45 you jump up and start scrambling to greet dk kids and realized it's Saturday. But that is a great feeling...back to bed! Or, when you put the milk in the pantry. I cut my father-in-law's food for him when he came over for dinner once. He laughed hysterically. ::

                          I think this is from just spending to much time with kids but last night I was at JcPenneys and I was going down the stairs from the third floor to the second and almost ran into a lady coming up, the first thing out of my mouth was "whoop a doodles" I'm sure she thought I was nuts ::

                            when you go out for a date night all nice and dressed up.... and suddenly look down and realize you are carrying your ugly diaper bag as a purse!

                              Talking to myself in a public place when I have no kids in tow with me.

                              Saying I have to use the potty. Or if hubby gets up from the couch, I"m like are you going potty?

                              Forgetting to get out of my crocs when I'm running errands. I wear them around the house to get the mail/leave the dog out. etc and forget to put something warmer on when I leave the house.
