So, i have to admit....i am a fan of all the Jeff Foxworthy "you might be a redneck" stuff!! (i love Bill Engvall) that actually inspired me and gave me a great idea for a coffee table type book just for parents, this is what i am thinking....a easy flip through comedy book titled "You know you're a parent when..." Here is a sneak peek of some ideas so far....enjoy!!! (and let me know what you think!)
YOU KNOW YOU'RE A PARENT WHEN.....
- you can listen and sing to the whole wiggles cd while driving and then realize your child is not even in the car
- You consider going to the bathroom “quite alone time” and you look forward to it.
- You know more of what’s going on in Dora and Diego’s social life then of your own husband’s.
- You would be the one willing to put the noose around Barney’s neck.
- You consider sleep a luxury
- If you get a shower 2 days in row, you consider yourself spoiled
- Getting dressed up means wearing a pair of jeans that actually fit and a shirt that is clean with no dirt, spit up or food stains on it
- You own a curling iron, hair straightener or blow dryer; you just never have time to use it.
- Starbucks in no longer a luxury, but a necessity…and also your best friend.
- The only way you know of a new celebrity is if they make an appearance on Sesame street
- You have the entire playhouse Disney and Nick Jr. lineup memorized, but you couldn’t tell me when Days of our Lives in on.
- Your favorite 4 word phrase is “Mommy I love you” and your favorite 3 word phrase is “Nite, Nite mommy!”
- You call your own parents nightly and apologize for anything you did to them growing up.
- You no longer subscribe to Vouge or Elle magazine…just Parenting and Family Fun
- You can’t remember what it was like to have just one purse with you instead of a purse, diaper bag, change of clothes, etc...
- Sleeping in….those 2 words no longer exist in the same sentence.
- You know who lives in a pineapple under the sea
- The thought of staying out until 2am just makes you tired.
- You’ll start a children’s movie and realize half way in that your child is nowhere in sight, but you’re still watching.
- Nap time isn't just for the kids!
