		<description>OMG - I say everything out loud too (except I thought it was cute - haha!)  Seriously, I didn&#039;t realize I did that until you said it.  

And on that last one about people who think they&#039;ll be great moms - I just had a woman comment to me about her DOG in the same vein! Now, I love dogs like anybody, but when she said &quot;I put him in his crate during the day otherwise he&#039;s in my face and around me all the time and I can&#039;t get work done. I imagine it&#039;s like a kid...&quot; I knew it was time for me to head in the other direction....!

Great blog Tara!

		<description>You&#039;re SO not alone! This list screams meme, and I&#039;m so stealing the concept and posting it on my blog (and linking to this post, of course)! I especially love #s 7, 9, 12, 13.</description>

		<description>@Courtney - Okay, I got stuck while reading your list. They make baby cologne? Really? Where have I been? And that Johnson and Johnson baby lotion just makes me swoon. Smells so good. Now I want to go buy some...Hmmm...

And yes, I am cracking up at some of these. It&#039;s funny how much moms have in common, isn&#039;t it?</description>

		<description>You&#039;re definitely not alone, lol. I have done all and still do some of these! 

- I will pull barettes and Macdonald&#039;s happy meal toys out of my purse when searching for loose change.

- My skin gets more baby oil than my daughter&#039;s does sometimes. Baby oil gel is the BEST!

- If I have to hit the brakes while driving, its not unusual for me to throw my right arm across an adult passenger&#039;s chest, pressing them back against their seat.</description>

		<description>Great list twin, I can definitely relate to A LOT of those. A few of mine are...

*When I&#039;m at work and I have to use the bathroom, depending on where I&#039;m at for the day I will ask someone to cover the lab or my desk so that I can go POTTY

*I complain about the cost of clothes, especially like just a pair of pants or a shirt, costing so much, yet I will turn around and buy my son a $50 TOY ::hangs head in shame::

*Every time I go in a store with my son, I hardly ever leave without getting him something. Even if that means not getting everything I came in there for ::hangs head in shame again::

*I&#039;m obsessed with &quot;baby smells&quot;. I love the Pink Johnson &amp; Johnson lotion, I even buy their baby cologne. Yes, they do make that, don&#039;t judge me

*As crazy and just plain weird as Yo Gabba Gabba is, I still try to make it home by 6:30 so we can watch it. Sometimes I&#039;m more into it than my son!

*When ever I have to take my son to the doctors with me, I always pray before we go in that he isn&#039;t &quot;THAT&quot; kid, yall know the ones I&#039;m talking about

*Not only have I gotten a bigger purse to carry around diapers and wipes, but you can also find fruit snacks, gerber melts, and butt cream in there too

*When my co-worker told me about John Mayer saying the &quot;N&quot; word, I said, &quot;...well what&#039;s so bad about him saying &#039;no&#039;, did he refuse to do something charitable?!&quot; Yeah, totally a mom and a dork!

*Every time I look at my son&#039;s baby pics, I seriously get sad that the time went by so fast and I can never get those moments back. I really miss him being inside me and being a little baby, now he&#039;s a big boy :-/

*Not only do I know like ALL of the theme songs on Nick Jr. but sometimes when I&#039;m up late at night, I&#039;m singing them because they&#039;re stuck in my head

*I keep an emergency binkie in my coat pocket, the cup holder in the car, as well as his diaper bag

*I have juice boxes stored behind the passenger seat, as well as graham cracker packets

*I&#039;ve forgotten how some foods actually taste since I basically just put it in my mouth and swallow. No time for actually enjoying a meal!

I could go on and on!</description>

		<description>This list could be my own. The poo checks, the phantom baby cries, and especially the various uses of baby wipes! 

Can we get that &quot;S&quot; on our chest now? We all deserve it!

Everywhere I go. Whether it be the hospital, therapy, the preschool...I&#039;m &quot;mom&quot;. No longer &quot;Katie&quot;. Just &quot;mom&quot;.</description>

		<description>LOL, I&#039;m guilty of most of these things too...1,2,3,4,6,7,8,9,12, and especially 13. 10 doesn&#039;t sound weird to me at all, but I&#039;ve never thought of that...lol

I was in my Bio 103 class a few semesters ago and my professor bought us donuts the last day of class to have a party and celebrate that we all passed the horrible class. So I opened up my purse, grabbed my baggie of wipes, and announced that I had wipes for anyone who wanted to use one. The professor gave me the weirdest look and said &quot;You carry wipes with you?!&quot; I said, &quot;yeah, and I have diapers too...&quot; Then he remembered that I had a son.
