1.) You can now sleep through a nuclear war in your bedroom, but if the baby so much as sniffles, you are out of bed and over to that bassinet before you're fully conscious.
2.) You find yourself rocking back and forth, even if you're not holding your baby.
3.) It is a GOOD day if you get a shower.
4.) It is a BETTER day if you shower and blow dry your hair.
5.) You find yourself alternately busier than you have ever been and bored out of your skull.
6.) Instead of being drudgery, trips to Wal-Mart or the grocery store now become exciting excursions. ANYTHING to get me out of this house!
7.) You spend half your life looking for that blasted pacifier.
8.) Have stopped showering alone. You KNOW that as soon as you turn on that water, baby is going to start screaming, so it's better if he screams where you can reach him and plug that pacifier back in. Wait, where is that blasted pacifier?!?
9.) The news-worthy events you post on facebook include how many hours of sleep you got the night before and how many poo-poos you've changed. 5 and 8, how 'bout you?
10.) You begin to realize all the sacrifices your own mother made to raise you.
your mom never joined the tinkle club though...
