Proud to be a parent for eight days now, but I know I am a father:
When my favorite store is Baby r' Us instead of Banana Republic and Best Buy.
When the things I buy online are diapers and wipes instead of Blu-rays and DVDs.
When I go straight to baby section in department stores instead of electronics.
When the books I read are about parenting and how to soothe a crying baby instead of crime thrillers.
When I drive below speed limit first time in my life with my baby in the car.
When my Netflix movies are left unopened and my movie list in queue is getting longer instead of shorter.
When my Ipod Touch becomes an expensive paper weight.
When weekend makes me more tired than work days.
When I drink more coffee/soda than water and eat more fast food than vegetables.
When I fall asleep the minute my head touches the pillow and jump out of the bed the minute I hear my baby cry.
When the only exercise I have is holding a seven-pound baby instead of swimming.

When I realize I am completely responsible for another human being.
Yeah, I am a father.

"When I drink more coffee/soda than water and eat more fast food than vegetables." - this doesn't sound so good... You need to take care of yourself as well.
