Things I never thought I would say or do...

Motherhood has definitely changed me and I was trying to think of all the things I say and do now that I never thought I would. Here are some examples, I never thought I would...

• Be so excited about poop. "Yay! This one isn't green!" (We've been struggling with what might be a foremilk/hindmilk issue, milk separates and if they eat too much foremilk and not enough of the fatty hindmilk their poop will be green and they'll have increased gas and need to eat more often).
  
• Say "Ow! Don't hug me so hard, you're hurting my boobs!" (One of my friends is stronger than she knows).
  
• Say "My pubic bone hurts." This seems to disturb people, but really, it's just like saying my knee hurts isn't it? This is the only thing standing between me and a good, long, run. Oh, and about 42 weeks of lost fitness.
  
• Refer to myself in third person as 'mommy'. Not just to Davis mind you, but in general. Hopefully, I mostly curb this behavior at work.
  
• Yell "Domino, I swear, if you wake that baby up you're going to the sausuage factory!"
• Say "John, you pointed him down right?" Turns out with little boys you have aim them correctly so as to prevent diaper leaks.
• Open a diaper to double check that I pointed him down.
  
• Go to work with spit up on my shirt becuase "eh, it's not that much really".
• Tell Davis "Niiice one" when he passes wind. Hey, trust me, it's much better out than in.
• Tell another baby "Niice one" when they pass wind. I can be excited for everyone right?
• Tell anyone who will listen what very small thing Davis did that I think is the most amazing thing in the world. I always told myself I wouldn't be one of those people who can't talk about anything but their kids. I can talk about other things, I just generally prefer not to.
• Plead with God every night at bedtime. "Please God, just five hours of sleep in a row, that's all I ask for. Well, that's a lot huh? Ok, four hours, please just four hours of consecutive sleep? No, no, you're right, it could be a lot worse than three hours in a row. Please God, just three hours of sleep in a row."
