35 indicators you have 2 kids age 2 and under :)

Thought some of my friends would enjoy these as much I enjoyed thinking them up!

1) Even your non-mom purse has a diaper, wipe and binky in it
2) The last movie your husband you saw together had Elmo as the star
3) You spend your whole morning getting people fed, dressed and hair done only to leave the house with a protein bar, yoga pants and a pony tail
4) When talking about "rides" with your friends, your husband and you are either referring to minivan features or strollers
5) Your husband asks you what you want for your birthday and your response is the only thing that comes to mind... "uninterrupted sleep"
6) You vacuum faster than anyone you know because you have a baby trying to scale it and a toddler whipping the cord like a jump rope threatening all of your lives
7) You find yourself introducing your husband as "Daddy" to other people
8) It doesn't even occur to you to shut the bathroom door
9) You put on jeans and your husband makes a fuss about how nice you look
10) You put on jeans and your toddler asks "Where we going?"
11) You've cleaned all day and your house looks exactly the same as it did when you started
12) You need two carts to complete your Wal Mart run, because after you get diapers and wipes and baby food one cart is full
13) You gauge how much you enjoy a venue by how "stroller friendly" it is
14) You find your morning coffee cup 3/4 full, you put it in the microwave, reheat, and find it again hours later, reheat, find it again, reheat and finally, find it after your self imposed "no caffeine after 4 pm" rule and just throw it out.
15) All errands are scheduled between 9 and 10 or 4 to 5
16) You have a "my toddler went poopy on the potty dance" that beats any NFL player's touchdown dance!
17) The lines that you and your hubby quote to one another from movies were all made by Pixar
18) You and your husband are as excited for a new episode of LOST as you are for one of Yo Gabba Gabba
19) You have a post it and pen in every room of the house because you can't remember what you need long enough to make it to the "big list" in the kitchen
20) You find yourself wanting to ask anyone in your company if they need to "try" before you leave
21) The last time you and your husband danced together you had a baby in one arm and were holding your toddler's hands spinning in a circle to Dora's "we did it" song
22) You can be heard asking in a public restroom "can you hear the pee pee?"
23) You can also be heard exclaiming in a public restroom "NO! EW! DO NOT TOUCH THERE! YUCKY YUCKY GERMS! NO! DON'T SIT! I'LL GET IT!"
24) The first thing you find no matter where you are IS the public restroom
25) You plan your Wal Mart shopping trip route around the potty stop
26) No matter how thoroughly you just cleaned you can always find a Cheerio or goldfish cracker
27) You've spent your whole day preparing food and feeding- and never ate anything yourself
28) No matter what you take out of your closet, there is a Kleenex in the pocket
29) You check your spouse's twitter to see how their day was
30) You think 7:30 pm is "late night"
31) Your jewelry is chosen by it's "tugability" factor
32) You now consider going to the grocery store alone as "me time"
33) Your meals are consumed between 2 and 3 or after 8 so you don't have to share!
34) Saying a bad word now means that you slipped and said "butt" or "shut up"
35) You've had more hugs, smoochies, and "I love yous" in one day than some people have a lifetime.
