You know you're a parent when...

...8:00 is no longer an early bedtime at your house.

...the baby furniture takes up as much space as your living room set.

...you've started to drive like all the old people.

...the baby's bowel movements are a regular topic of conversation.

...you've replaced your best friend with a binky.

...getting out of bed in the morning is the worst part of the day because you have to leave that adorable, smiling little guy behind.

...your day's schedule is planned around nap time.

...for the first time ever you're thankful for the doctor bills because you have a healthy child.

...you're actually considering getting a minivan.

...the best sound on earth is your baby's breathing at night.

...your Facebook wall is as plastered with pictures as your grandma's fridge...only she has 41 grandchildren and you have one baby.

..."alone time" has a relative meaning.

...you sway when you're standing up whether or not you're holding the baby.

...the success of a shopping trip is defined by how few of stores you visited.

...you suddenly realize that your parents are the most selfless people you know. Seriously.
