Things only parents do.

This is a quick list of the strange behaviours I have adopted since becoming a parent. You may have your own. Feel free to add to the list.

1. Thought about or actually showered in the dark for fear of waking children.
2. Moved everything up out of your young child's reach so you now have a million things in one place.
3. Used a turkey baster to wedge a door shut. That's just me!
4. Scratched your clothes clean.
5. Been asked to repeat something you said, only to have forgotten it because you're tired.
6. Made lists to remind yourself to not forget something, then lose the note.
7. Only drink cold tea.
8. Eat standing up.
9. Get used to the smell of kid's poo.
10. Keep smelling kid's poo long after you have changed the nappy.
11. Overslept, making you late for work and thought it was totally worth it.
12. Laugh when your child sneezed in your face.
13. Know the characters to at least 3 kids shows.
14. Not showered until after 12.
15. Sometimes thinking about not showering as you think it takes up too much time.
16. Sitting down on the toilet and saying, " Aaaaaahhhhh"
17. Answered the door without makeup or barely clothed.
18. Either been punched in the boob or kicked in the crotch.
19. Watch a dvd in no less than 3 attempts.
20. Crept around the house as if it had been boobytrapped with IUDs.
