You know you're the mother of a toddler when....

--You feel you're throwing away more food than your child eats (unless you eat the scraps)

--You've become so blase about freakouts that your motto is "Another day, another tantrum"

--Naptime is indeed the new happy hour

--You often think Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde had nothing on your child

--This morning's perfect hair twist is this afternoon's tangled, loose, ratty knot

--You hear "NO!" so much that you are thinking of teaching your child a different language altogether. Maybe Russian. Does nyet sound better than no?

What else would you add?!
