Tessa and Jenn are right, you would be a Lacto Ovo (milk and eggs) Vegetarian. There are three main kinds of vegetarians: Lacto Ovo (No eat meat but they still consume milk and eggs.), Lacto (no meat or eggs, but they still consume dairy products.), and Vegan (no animal proteins or animal by-products).

There are many other types of vegetarians as well. I recommend that you visit "veggie123.com" The site is compromised of a free e-book (that you don't have to download, just navigate it by the menu on the side). It has all of the essential information you will need to become a vegetarian.

You may also want you search Yahoo and Google with "Lacto Ovo Vegetarian" and "Vegetarian" for websites, groups and support pertaining to vegetarianism.

I hope this helps.

I think you would label yourself a vegetarian

That would be vegetarianism.
Specifically, you would be a lacto-ovo vegetarian.

lacto ovo vegetarian
(lacto meaning you drink milk, ovo meaning you eat eggs)

You're probably a vegetarian. Are you avoiding other 'hidden' animal products? Things like gelatin (ground up tendons and hooves) are used in candy, yogurt Jello and other things. Rennet (calf stomach) is in some cheeses. Lard is animal fat.

If you are watching those things too then yes, you're vegetarian.

lacto ovo vegetarian

Lacto= dairy
Ovo= eggs
Pesco=fish

those are the things that some vegetarians incorporate, a lacto-ovo-vegetarian is the most common, and most people just refer to themselves as a vegetarian even though technically they are lacto-ovo
