you know you are a new mom when...

• you get sad when your baby grows out of their cute 0-3 month clothes
• you don't know what to do with yourself when your baby takes a 30 minute nap in his crib
• your workout routine doesn't involve arms--you'll get your workout hauling the carseat around
• you rejoice when you can sleep in til 6am. baby sleep habits, oh boy!
• loud noises make you jump, even if your baby isn't asleep
• you wonder why you get weird glances in the aisles of Target, until you realize talking to your mute baby makes it look like you are talking to yourself
• "little red caboose" and "4 little ducks" are stuck in your head, not the popular songs on the radio
• you get more excited to shop in the baby department than in the lady's department
• you feel happy, excited, grumpy, and frustrated all within a five minute period
• you can't be bothered to use punctuation or capitalization on a regular basis due to exhaustion. this makes some of your freelance writing projects a little difficult.  

but i guess this guy is worth it all.
