You know you've let yourself go when:
- You realize that your "nice" clothes (you know, "jeans" lol) really don't get too much wear and tear
- You get excited when these go on sale:
(this is because your "daily uniform" consists of sweatpants and t-shirts (although I try to wear "cute" sweatpants at least. I have two pair of these and LOVE LOVE LOVE them. They are the best fitting ones ever. I want more but they're kind of expensive...)-You can't wait for the weather to get warmer because then you'll actually shower and get ready more than twice a week
-Going to Walmart or Costco is the most exciting part of your day (even if that means struggling with the kids...at least you're out of the house!)
-"Poop" and "pee" and "potty" are words you use often...and NOT just with your kids
- Your 2-year old daughter puts lip gloss on more frequently than you do
-When people come by unannounced, the state of your house rather than the state of yourSELF is what you're most worried about
-You dress your kids in cute outfits but you stay in your sweats
-Your kid lives on a steady diet of chicken nuggets, ramen, and ketchup (but she did have some broccoli with her ramen today!)
-You NEVER go to the mall.
-You really feel like you are saving money at Kohl's
-Spending 20 bucks on clothing for your kids is OK but spending even 15 on clothing for yourself sends you on a personal guilt trip
-You can't remember if you brushed your teeth this morning
-You realize you miss that teeth brushing thing a lot in the morning
-When you didn't wear makeup today...why wash your face at all tonight?
-When you look in the mirror, you seem to bear a striking resemblance to one of those paparazzi pictures of Oprah without her "TV mask" on...
-Your idea of exercise (that you keep reassuring yourself with) is lifting a carseat and hauling children around
OK now that you all think/know I'm gross...I hope we can still be friends.

I'm glad I'm not the only one. I personally relate to each and every one of these.
P.S. I need new sweats. Tell me when they go on sale.
Newie I will still be related to you--we are stuck forever! And I am so glad about that. What a funny post! I am sure I had the same issues when I was in your situation. Motherhood is a bit confining isn't it? I am not so sure about having thousands and millions of spirit babies in the eternal future. It sounds like a bit of hard work. Love ya! Fofa
This is hilarious because it is so true! I really did LOL at the whole not washing your face when you didn't put on any make-up thing. That is SO me! Needless to say, I rarely wash my face @ night. Let's just say moving to Minn dropped me to an all-time low. I am the epitome of this list. Enough about me...
So funny and so true. Iam so glad that I am not the only one who doesnt get dressed. Maybe some day I will care again.
I love it! All of those are so true!! Guess what I am wearing as I type! I love those too!! LOL
Ha ha.... it seems I have let myself go, because I relate to everything on this list! Maybe now that I'm not hauling a carseat around anymore, I really should start exercising? Glad I'm not the only one who fits this list!
Those are my FAVORITE PANTS EVER!!!!!!!!!! I probably have 5 different colors. Seriously the best. YAY!!
Ha, I think it has to do with the whole "going from one to two" children thing, because I also relate to much of this!
