My friend, Stephanie, wrote the BEST post on her blog about how her life has changed since becoming a Mom. So I am stealing her list and making a few modifications to accurately describe my life:
10) My idea of an exciting Saturday night is grocery shopping at 9pm, by myself, after the kids are asleep.
9) Eating at In-and-Out is an extremely healthy meal: milkshake (dairy), burger (for Charlotte, at least, protein), fries and ketchup (veggies) .
8) I can’t tell you the last time I listened to the radio or a CD of my own in the car… But I have listened to a lot of classical music, even if it is from Baby Einstein movies.
7) I have talked about poop with total strangers.
6) The perfect Mother’s Day gift is an afternoon without the kids.
5) While attempting to eat dinner, I get out of my chair an average of 24 times.
4) My attitude about putting a child in a kid-harness has done a 180. I haven't done it yet, but I might...
3) Just ask me to sing the theme songs for Blues Clues, Dora, Diego and Little Einsteins - I can do them all.
2) Fruit snacks (with 5% real fruit juice) counts towards the daily fruit/veggie count...
1) “Getting lucky” for us means the diapers are on sale PLUS a coupon at Babies R Us!
Honestly, I do love being a mother. These things are all fun to joke about, but the smiles and hugs and kisses and adorable things my little guys do make it all worth it.

"Climb on board, get ready to explore...Zooming through the sky, Little Einsteins."
I'll admit, that is my favorite theme song of the bunch...
I love your list, too! Little Einsteins is my favorite theme song, too.
Fun list, Stace! I meant to email you back about the harness thing. I love that you included the hyper-hypo link. Such fun times. And I'm glad to know that I'm not the only one who has changed their position concerning "leashes!"
