How We Know You've Got a Boy at Home: 22 Signs You're a Mom of Boys

We know that not all boys are truck-obsessed, mud-hoppers with a pension for farts, but let's be honest: The expression boys will be boys was created for a reason. If you've got a little man at home? Chances are you've outed yourself as a mom of boys with one (or, heck, all) of these signs.

1. You know a digger from a dump truck from a front loader.

2. You've given up on the "no balls in the house" rule and simply ask them not to throw to hard.

3. You've been the Joker to his Batman.

4. You've mentally planned your route to the closest ER -- because, really, it's just a matter of time.

5. High-five are not annoying anymore.

6. You've stopped sitting on the floor for fear a child will land on your shoulders.

7. You totally over-buy when a friend gives birth to a baby girl.

8. All of your throw pillows and cushions are on the floor. Always.

9. You say "fire truck!" out loud every time you pass one whether your kid is with you or not.

Yea.. Yea... I hear you !!

"Baby Gurl" instead of throwing balls she wants me to help her walk.... we don't have carpet in the office/music studio. However we have a few rugs and initially we had pillows all around her... But not now... that was a 'Rookie" move.... now we moving towards being a veteran. She will not break if she falls !!!!!

Well falling is all apart of walking but it would help her to learn to crawl first. Ha!
