...You get your fruits for the day by a) eating the pieces of apple that LO bit off that were too big for him to keep chewing (mmm, tiny drool covered, chewed apple bits!), and b) licking the spoon after LO's done with his purees.
@BabsTheBunny it looks great!!!! And lol oh so true!
@Sammy K omg I hope LO Is ok. You know, such a coincidence you mention this happening. My DH, leaves lose change everywhere and he started leaving it on top of our bed where I occasionnaly change LO diaper. I've been paranoid he would swallow one if I'm not around and DH decides to leave the change there again.
@beemaya83 It was our 3 yo, but I worry about LO getting ahold of stuff he drops on the floor. So far, she's more interested in the dog chew toy than anything. It's amazing how fast she is if she spots it on the floor.
Woops I missed the "toddler" part. I'm so scared of LO choking on anything period. I've been considering taking a CPR/First Aid class. I just need to figure out where. I'm in California so maybe my hospital offers some, I need to check. @Sammy K
You know you're a mom when you have a sick baby and the only thing that makes him happy is giving you slobbery kisses and rubbing his drooly hands all over your face, so you let him do it. Been doubling up on the vitamin c and expecting to be sick later this week... Anything to see him smile i guess!
You find yourself telling DH that LO will tell you when he is tired if he will listen. Yes I understand my 7 month old doesn't speak. But if you catch the first eye rub he naps so much easier.
You are in the basement doing laundry and your husband comes in and says it's funny that you are singing the "Peg + Cat" theme song. And you realize you had absolutely no idea you were singing.
...when you carry a sketchy Ziploc baggie full of unidentified pills in your purse all the time but it's nothing fun, just your thrice daily fenugreek/blessed thistle/Brewer's yeast/More Milk Plus combo.
@Steph0727 I don't know which is worse the drool covered hands to the face or when they shove those drool covered hands straight into your mouth. Thank you @beemaya83 all my family are having a fit over me cutting it and I'm just like no regrets. I was even crazy enough to let DH do it for me.

I wish it was just the stuff on the floor to worry about. The other day, LO stopped rolling around to feel underneath the couch. After a minute or so, his hand emerged with an upholstery staple that he had pulled out!
This kid can take as long as he wants to start crawling, I'm in no rush. It feels like such a big task to keep this one kid out of trouble, right now my brain can't even wrap itself around the idea of watching two or more.

He settles her in her home as a happy mother of children, praise the Lord! (Psalms 113:9)
And the peace of God, which surpasses all understand, will guard your heart and mind in Jesus Christ (Philippians 4:7)
You finally schedule like a full day away from little one babysitter and all and end up not missing a feeding because you fell your third time down the ski hill. And all you are mad about is that LO had to sit at the insta care with you for two hours which included many evil looks toward sick people coming to sit near you in the designated healthy waiting area.
When you find yourself adopting kids speak into your regular language "ugh, I have to go wash babas", "I'll be back, just going to hit up the potty"...you know what I mean. We call Disney's Frozen "Anna and elsa". Cinderella is now named "Lella". It's "daddy's car" not just car. Whatever your toddler says ends up in regular rotation.
Also, you know your a mom when a phone call is interrupted with "no, stop", "don't eat that", "stop hitting your sister". My hubby says it's like talking to someone with Tourette's (no offence means for those who suffer).
When you suddenly feel the weird sensation of your shirt rubbing against your nipple and realize you didn't do up your nursing bra after the last session. This has happened in public on more than one occasion now.

....you cut your hair short, thus getting a "mom" hair cut.

You know you're a mom when you turn down lunch with friends because it's during prime nap time hours.

When your shoe size when up because you know, pregnancy does weird things to your body.
I went shopping today and I'm no longer a 6.5
