101 Experiences of Motherhood

Disclaimer 1: I don't have 101! Please feel free to contribute to the list.

Disclaimer 2: Don't analyze the title too much, I reworded about 10 times.

1.  Your mowing peacefully in your yard, when you realize you are humming the theme song "Thomas the Train" to yourself.
2. You volunteered to mow rather than corral your 2 year old in the house.
3. You and your husband have discussed why Daniel Tiger wears pants to bed but not to school.
4. You emailed your husband to tell him Daniel Tiger was going to be a big brother because you were so excited about the timeliness of this new season! 
5. Your toddler doesn't like Daniel Tiger now that he has become a big brother. 
6. Your child(ren) have much nicer bedroom furniture everything than you.
7. You really don't remember what life was like before they were born.
8. You can name more trains than just "Thomas"
9. You try to name the trains in the puzzle before your toddler.
10. You were excited the first day you picked your toddler up from the babysitter with the same pair of pants, he was dropped off in. (Hence, an accident free day!)
11. Pregnant brain is worse the second time around.
12. You still remember that first "blowout" in the car that you prayed you didn't hear, but your nose told you otherwise.  Just laugh, the tears won't help you clean it up!
13. The first time your child says I love you, and every time he says it after that.  There are no words.
14. The first time your child says, "I not need your help. I'm a big boy."  You're thankful for independence, but hope he still lets you rock him to sleep. 
15. You pack PJ's in his bag every time he goes to Grandma's house just in case he convinces her he needs to stay.  (Which by the way is less than a mile from the house.)
16. Every time your child spends the night away, your husband comments on how much he misses him and you secretly wonder if your a bad parent as you fall asleep at 8pm on the couch. 
17. The first time you are without your child, you can't decide between eating, sleeping, or taking a hot bath.  So you grab a snack and cry yourself to sleep in the hot bath. 
18. You are thankful that no one could actually describe the first 6 weeks of a newborn.  You try not to ruin it for other new moms.
19. You can't believe someone made a movie of your life that you cried most of the way through. "Mom's Night Out"
20. You just realized as your blogging that in 7 weeks, you will start over with the first 6 weeks of a newborn. (I might cry myself to sleep in my hot bath again.)
