The Mommy Problems

I recently saw someone use the hash-tag #MommyProblems on twitter, and got a pretty good laugh considering every single day I do something and follow it by stating out loud "mommy problems".  So I thought I'd compile a list of my most recent mommy problems.  If you're a mommy who hasn't experienced at least one of these, I'll be shocked.  And I'll kick you in the shins.
Here are my top 10 mommy problems, in no particular order:

1) The "I haven't washed my hair in four days because every time I have a second to shower, I'm distracted by other things (i.e. Facebook, Blogger, Twitter) that I can't do while chasing a toddler" problem.

2) The "holy crap, I want to gouge my eyes out if we have to read ANOTHER round of 'Moo, Baa, La La La'" problem.

3) The "chicken nuggets and mac & cheese are fine for dinner...again...for the third time this week..." problem.

4) The "I had to scream to my husband to come finish putting the baby to bed last night because I had a diarrhea attack" problem.

5) The "babies should be born with full sets of teeth because molar teething is the devil" problem. (Also see: the "it's ok if the kid sleeps in our bed tonight if it's the only way he'll stop screaming and we can all get some sleep" problem.)

6) The "sometimes I still wear my maternity leggings or nursing tanks just because they're super comfy" problem.

7) The "my do-it-myself manicure is all sorts of screwed up because I had to chase the toddler before it dried" problem.

8) The "I keep forgetting to take pictures and videos of my kid because before I click the flash, he's trying to run up the stairs and subsequently dive off of them like Evil Knievel" problem.

9) The "my kid gets a bath every night because he has an affinity for running his fingers through his hair...during dinner time" problem.

10) The "All I can talk about is my kid because he's so freaking adorable-amazing-smart-sweet-hilarious-insertanyadjectivehere" problem.
