You know you’re a mom when…
- You have to give the dog an unexpected wash down before breakfast because your
monstertoddler decided to color her green with a marker
- You understand why the woman in the commercial says “Calgon, take me away!”
- You’re
monstertoddler doesn’t hear you when you tell him “Pick up your toys”, but say any one cuss word under your breath in the next room over, and he’s on it like white on rice
- You know how LOUD the sound of carpet is scrunching under foot when you are trying to sneak out of your semi-sleeping kids’ room
- You find yourself wondering if it’s too early for a glass of wine – at breakfast
- Anybody catch the season finale of Modern Family? The best show on all thousand channels of TV? Remember when Mitchell is trying to get the pigeon out of the house and destroys the living room and makes an absolute mess? You know you’re a mom when your
monstertoddler turns to you after watching the scene and tells you ”his mom is gonna be really mad”
- You tell hubby that after a certain time in the evening you’re officially ‘off duty’, and not responsible for taking care of anything or anybody else
- You get pissed off if the kids aren’t in bed at exactly their designated bed time
- You never in a million years thought you’d ever ask anybody ”Okay, who pooped?”, but now do it on a daily basis
- And you know you’re a mommy blogger when you bypass doing your daily chores in order to read one more blog/write one more comment/respond to one more email…

Love them all! And I LOVE Modern Family!
Love it! Especially the one about the crunchy carpet!! Found you on blog flow! I'm a follower.
Love it! My kids are pre-teens now and I still get annoyed when they're not instantly in bed and asleep the moment the clock strikes their bedtime!
loved that Modern Family and love your son's comment
can't wait to check out all the great blogs you recommend this summer…
i had a calgon take me away moment the other night…it was bliss!
love the green on your dog…what a crafy monster you have!
Love the last one! It is so true. I spend way more time on the computer than I should as a blogger…but I just cannot seem to stop!!
I love Modern Family too! Every episode is so classic.
By the way, if I had a nickel for every time I've said the word poop in the last nine years, I would probably have enough money to put these kids through school.
lol too funny! Thanks for stopping by, I'm a new follower of yours! Off to check out your giveaway
All so very, very true! Love it! I love Modern Family!
I relate to ALL of these. So true!
LOVE Modern Family!
What's wrong with a glass of wine for breakfast?
LOL – yep, I can certainly relate to everything on this list!
I love the photo of the colored dog! And I haven't caught the finale of Modern Family yet, but I can't wait, I love that show!
HAHAH.. I cant believe the frequency we even say poop in this house. Our MiniMac is three…we say it ALLLLLL the time.
These are all great. Particularly about bedtime and poop. I feel your pain. Oh, and I'm a HUGE modern family fan. Haven't watch the finale yet, so had to skim thru that.
I've seen one episode of Modern Family (the one where Al Bundy – I still call him that – was coaching the kids basketball team). Lol @ who pooped. And that poor puppy. Your life sounds exhausting but really fulfilling and exciting.
Ut oh, looks lie I'm a mom, lol.
You know your a mom when you go to reply on someone's blog an stuff is misspelled cause there's a babe sitting on your lap reaching for the keyboard.
I think last night was my "You know you're mom when daze"–you're dead dog tired & it's only 7 pm! Or this morning, when I thought it was noon & it was only 9 am! lol
Your poor dog. Apparently he should be green not white haha. I found you from over at The Life of A Sippy Cup Mom. I'm a new follower!
Oh, Lord. I can relate to too many of these! And I am so upset that I missed Modern Family! I love that show! And I just told myself the same thing. 5 more minutes and I have to get off the computer. Sad
A list of PERFECTION! Seriously, I understand and agree with them all. Well, minus the colored on dog, 'cause ain't no dogs allowed in my house. And the wine thing, 'cause I don't drink. But, other than that.
AMEN!!!!! Also I never thought I would hold up a baby's bum to my husband for the sniff check!
We love Modern Family. My son said after the pigeon incident, "Mama, look at that huge, huge mess. Ewww!"
And Helllooo, yeah for bed-time!!
I'm guilty of declaring myself "Off duty", doesn't always work though!!
I love Modern Family! My family teases all the time that my husband and I are just like Cameron and Mitchell. Guess which one I am.
The poor dog! did it come out of the fur easily?
I always say, "it's 5 oclock somewhere…"
Modern Family is hilarious! I cracked up when the pigeon was in the house. I'd have been freaking out too.
Ha ha ha This made my day! Thank you.
I'm a new follower btw. I found you on blogfrog. Feel free to stop by my blog too!

OMG! I totally love you! So glad you found me today via my son's potty mouth! XO
I can relate to ALL of the above..well except for the 3 under 3 thing…you're like a God to me!
Ok, the one about the dog is hilarious. Toddlers are so helpful. I also totally know what you mean about how loud the carpet is. I know where all of the squeeks in the floor are and I try to avoid them at all cost whenever the babies are sleeping!
Love it!!! I totally LOVE Modern Family and think thats hilarious that your little said that!
It's amazing how much poop can take over your life once you have little ones!!!
I never have to ask *who* pooped, because there can be only one guilty party, but I frequently find myself asking, "Did you just poop?" as he scoots by me with visible stink lines following.
I found you via Theta Mom. Great blog, following and look forward to reading more of you.
I get soooo pissed when the kids aren't in bed by 8pm. It is usually my stupid husband's fault when the kids go to bed late, thus making me mad at my husband and the kids. JUST GO TO THE BED EVERYONE!
I think I've done all of those things!
Everyone loves a glass of wine at breakfast.
And yes, my monster has impeccable hearing to the point where I whisper something bad, he knows.
Yes, yes, yes, and yes!!! To all of them. Except the green markered dog. But if I had a dog, I'm pretty sure I would have one that had been decorated in marker. And I am so with you on the sound of the carpet scrunching. You are so hilarious!!!
ha!! this meme is GREAT. I've SO had many of those things happen. Glad I'm not the only mom whose son colors on unexpected things. I don't remember him ever drawing on our dog, but that's probably because she's black
Yes, I have definitely thought that happy hour should start at about 8am too
The carpet crunching one…totally relate. My favorite is when I am creeping out of the room, and my body betrays me with an ankle pop or knee crack.
… poor dog!
Oh and about the wine, I used to drink about 5 times per year, now I think about wine and corona's daily!
What a lovely shade of green!! How the heck did I miss this post?? Hilarious.
LoL – I love this. So true…and inspiring…I've got some brain cells firing now.
I am resisting the urge (for the moment) to make myself a mimosa for breakfast…but only barely. And Poop is a huge part of our personal culture. More than I ever thought it would be.
On the poop thing… My daughter pooped in my closet once… no diaper… we were potty training… ugh, and just out of the bath. She comes up to me with a flash light and says mama I have to show you something, points the flash light at the end of my closet… ugh.. she did it more than once..
I am enjoying your blog friend!!!
