Let's hear some funny things that have happened to you since you became a parent and all you could do was laugh. For example, last night was my husband's and my anniversary. Usually we go out some where nice, leave the 4 year old with a sitter or grandparents. Not last night, we had a classy night out at Pizza Hut!!! We couldn't find a sitter and hey it was Kids Eat Free night, hahahahahaa! Who has some good ones? Let's hear 'em!

...you can leave the house with no makeup and a ponytail and not think twice, but your kid has to have matching socks :)

You know you're a parent when...
- you know every word to the Dora the Explorer and Go Diego Go theme songs and find yourself humming them as you make lunch
- you have no problem reaching across the table to wipe your sons runny nose with your hand
- when you're out with friends, you have to stop yourself from spitting on a tissue and wiping the dab of ketchup off their faces
- you would have never ever peed with the door wide open, now it's a constant battle to remember to do so in public
- you have no problem going outside in track pants and a sweatshirt, but your kids have to have clean faces and their best Baby Gap shirt on
- you find yourself answering these kinds of questions.

i had to take a long bus ride with my eldest when he was a baby to visit my mom, 85% of the way there i noticed a smell and thought oh no not here! we were in the back of the bus and no one was around so i cracked a window and hoped no one else would want to sit in the back.... then the bus stopped and this poor kid got on and came to the back sitting right next to us. my little one got on this huge cheesy smile and looked up at the kid and said "I stink!"
i was just mortified, luckily the next stop was ours and i ran him into the nearby mall and got him changed before he could make any more "friends"
also you know ur a parent when in the summer you finally get toned enough to wear a bikini, you go out back to tan and your kid comes out, throws a towel over you and tells you to stop walking outside in your underwear!

Oh wow good question... I have a 20 month old. My first.. Anyway, I was giving my son tea out of my glass at Pizza Hut and he wouldn't let go of the straw. Just keeps drinking and my husband says make him stop.. At that moment my son (with straw still in his mouth, still sucking tea) rolled his eyes at my husband... You had to see it... I laughed so hard.. My husband didnt think it was so funny.. LOL

When you are grocery shopping and say, "Should we have carrots tonight? Yummy, yummy carrots! What about some chicken! Oh, look at those yellow bananas!"
Then you look down and realize that for once, you are shopping by yourself.
You also know you're a parent when you've inspected your clothing and thought, "Hmmm, it's not that much puke - no need for a clean shirt"

You know you are a parent when the A&E department of your local hospital is on first name terms with all your family.
My eldest son was a tearaway; he was the middle child of five. The summer he turned four, in the space of six weeks, We visited our local children's hospital with him four times;
He broke his collarbone by falling out of bed;
He slammed the car door on his own fingers;
He kicked another kid who kicked him right back and we thought his leg was broken;
He was playing cowboys and indians with his two year old brother when they both tumbled sideways into the glass door of my china cabinet, and they both need stitches;
Ah, memories!

-you go to bed there are two people in the bed and when you wake up there's three
-you go to the bathroom and you see little fingers trying to get to you from under the door.
-a minute to yourself is when you go to the bathroom but even thats not a given :)
-a "girls night" includes 5 giggling 9 year olds listening to Aaron Carter and watching Lindsey Lohan movies. (and you are looking forward to it!)
-you find yourself watching and answering Joe on Blues Clues and the kids are no where in sight.
-everytime you pick up the phone its already in use.
and finally
-you finally know the meaning of uncondional love!

You know your a parent when you hear a child starting to vomit and your hands automatically cup and try to catch. Gross but true. Or you know your a parent when people say "do you want to come over" and you answer with " I have the kids". LOL.. love the story.

-when hyou open upmyour purse and a pacifier falls out
My son who is 2 was sitting on his potty and when he went to get up he fell on the peepee gaurd and hurt his penis. He started to cry and all I could do was hug him and tell him he was all right. Now in my family we kiss your booboos. Need I go on? He looks at me with such innocence and says "kiss it mommy" I started laughing so hard I had tears in my eyes and then he says"whats the matter mom" and starts rubbing my back. It was simply hilarious!! Then he asked to call his gma and when he was on the phone he kept sayin "I hurt my penis." And after that he decided that he needed to tell everyone that talked to him that he had hurt his penis!
