You laugh out loud while watching Sesame Street. DH did this yesterday while watching with our son. :hyper:

Care to add anything???
 
You are out with a friend and they ask for a tissue and you hand them a wipe.
 
You know you are a parent when you say, "I have to go potty . . ."
 
Oh see that is a verb in my house. Pottying;)
 

You have removed silly putty from the underwear, and removed the same kid from the dryer...with the cat...on the same day!:rolleyes:

I do that all the time! lol.

Let's see if I have anything to add. :)

You know you're a parent when.....

You're at a restaurant sitting next to a table with a screaming baby and you don't even notice it.

You spend more time in public restrooms than you ever thought possible (this coming from someone who just finished potty-training a 3 year old, lol).

You get the theme song from Barney stuck in your head far too often.

You finally, truly understand what unconditional love is.

:hug:
 
You know you are a parent when a child yells, "Mommy!'' (or "Daddy!", depending on your gender, of course ;) ), and you automatically turn around, even though your children are nowhere nearby . . .

That's a good one Deb!
 
You're a parent when...

- you watch the ending of Blue's Clues even when the kids have gone outside

~ someone small grabs you around the leg and you don't even notice

~ you spend more time discussing bodily functions then you ever thought possible

~ You can tell time by the programs on Playhouse Disney (and so can your 4 yo :p )

~ You know there is nothing sweeter in the world than a little face nuzzled in the crook of your neck and soft breath on your cheek
 
You find yourself saying things you never thought you would.

"don't pull your brother off the ball by his ears"
"don't sit on your sisters head" Belle decided to give Lukas a piggy back ride, problem is she's 2 and he's 7.
"stop licking your finger and sticking it in your brothers/sisters ears"

What's worse is they do all this in front of my mom so when I have to say something she ends up laughing so dang hard she's crying. :crazy:

Acrually, you know you're a parent when you hear a child scream (no words) and can tell whether or not it's yours. :teeth: :teeth:
 
too work before you realize you are singing along to the Wiggles ( or any other kid music) that was left in the CD player.

Your "Now Playing" list in TiVo is nothing but Dora, Blue, Spongebeb, House of Mouse, Wiggles....
 
You talk to your self about what you are doing and how long it will take and do you think dada will like the dinner you made.... before you realise your child is with grandma.

- you watch the ending of Blue's Clues even when the kids have gone outside
::yes::

Had that happen yrs ago while watching the lazer show at stone mountain. I had left DH and DS to go to the restroom and couldn't make it thorugh the crowd to them. I was standing there watching the show and paid no mind to a little girl who was holding onto my shorts to balance herself while she put her shoe back on. The mother looked down and saw her and appologized. I thought it was very funny, both that the girl grabbed the "wrong" mom and that I didn't even notice what she was doing since I was so use to stuff like that.


Anyway you know you are a parent when you call your spouse Mommy or Daddy LOL
Oh or the one any mom who has breast fed will know...
When a baby cries (any baby even if yours are not around)
and you get the sudden urge to nurse
 
You are a parent of a teen when you finally say
Cause I said so, that's why
and
My house my rules...
And when you realize you sound just like your mother, aack.
 
when you're a guy carrying around a pink, Disney princesses backpack... sooo not my color ;)
 
You know your a parent when you find your self explaining to someone who isn't a parent that SpongeBob is not a block of cheese he is a sponge.:rolleyes:
 
When you catch vomit with your bare hands (like that really helps). I wouldn't do that for anyone else! ;) I hate the flu. LOL.
