Ten things that remind me that I’m a mum. This post is inspired by this post from Christine Coppa.
1 Every room in the house has at least one toy in it and
also your car, back and front yard.
2 The tv is mostly on on childrens programmes.
3 You’re constantly picking up stuff from the floor and
wiping off freshly made drawings from the wall. (oh no, they found a crayon or
marker again !)
4 Your shopping list contains at least three items that are
especially for kids.
5 You’re often interrupted from whatever you are doing by a
child calling you; mummy.
6 You come back from the sales in town with mostly kids
items.
7 You can often find a diaper in your handbag and sometimes
even a toy.
8 You only get to eat half of your mugshot because you have
to share it with two of your kids. (Luckily they have smaller mouths and so they
are getting less on a spoon.)
9 You are excited about pink tutu’s, finding a hello kitty
dvd on sale in the shop and scoring Peppa Pig shoes in 'almost new' condition on
the carboot sale.
10 Your lipsticks finish far more quickly than they should.
( the girls have borrowed your makeup again and your lipstick is all gone)
A wall in the hall last week after I scrubbed most of the paint in beautiful colours from the wall ( I was too shocked to take a picture before this but it was one of their best works so far) There must be a future artist living in this house. (or maybe two)
What are the things that remind you that you’re a mum ?
I’d love to hear from you.
Love,

4. Your eating and your kids say what is that can I have some there goes what you crave for

I hardly sleep
legos, dinsoaurs, and cars everywhere

kid cds in my car
look around whenever I hear the word mommy or hear a kid scream
1. Toys in my purse is a top on my list...batman, barbie, random pink things...
2. Definitely trying to by something for myself without coming home with tons of Kiddie stuff instead
3. Playing 'clean up' in the house at least 5 times a day
4. Having my dinner be a combination of left overs from the Kiddies plates
5. Hearing myself say stuff to my Kiddies and thinking "goodness I sound just like my mother"
2. Locking the door to the bathroom before someone charges in.
3. when bedtime is stressful.
4. You don't get more than 3 hours of sleep at night.
5. Vomit and poop do not disgust you.

"stop that"
"don't touch that"
"close the door"
"give my kisses"
"no hitting"
"no biting"
You get the point! LOL! Also constantly putting things back because someone is always moving things or trying to touch something! :) Thanks for linking up with us on the Mommy Monday Hop. Following you now blog lovin'. Here is my new blog you can follow me on: http://homemakingwithstyle.blogspot.com
