You know you have a toddler boy when....





1-Before he can say the word "stinky" he pulls his feet to his nose, sniffs, pinches his nose and says "EWW"
.
.
2-He shouts out "PEN1S" while you're changing his diaper...in a public restroom...at a nice restaurant
.
.
3-Everything in sight is a target to be hit, tackled or in some other way subdued
.
.
4-Before he can walk down stairs, he's trying to "work-out" with Daddy
.
.
5-There's a constant battle cry coming from your home
.
.
6-You find yourself apologizing to random strangers because your child just chest-butted them
.
.
7-You find yourself apologizing to random strangers because your child just chased their little girl ALL over the zoo playground
.
.
8-You find yourself thankful for 90 lb dogs because at least they can take the "hugs" whereas a smaller beast may have been crushed with love
.
.
9-You know the 2 greatest toys in the world are a stick and anything that resembles a ball
.
.
10-You know that at any moment, you may have to go to the hospital because the kid shoved something up his nose or in his ear
.
.
11-Spiderman, Superman and Buzz Lightyear have taken over your home
.
.
12-You find lots of treasures while emptying pockets to do laundry...rocks, sticks...small creatures
.
.
13-You discover your child has a talent for making dogs howl on cue
.
.
14-You have to disconnect the "motion sensor" baby monitor at 9 months because the child has learned how to stand in the corner not moving to make the alarm go off in the middle of the night just so he can laugh at you as you run in
.
.
15-"Toys-Sirs-Us" and "Frizz-er-bees" are your two new favorite words
.
.
16-All icky/gross things are the highlight of your child's day
.
.
17-The Poison Control 1-800 number is on your refrigerator...and in your cell phone...and posted next to the home phone...and on the diaper bag tag...all just in case
.
.
18-You do a Happy Dance when the dog eats the kazoo
.
.
19-You only really worry when it gets quiet
.
.
20-When you tell him that's the last cookie, you get this as a response...






But the best way to know if you have a toddler boy is if every time you look at him, he melts your heart
