OK, I know pregnancy brings on a whole new ray of hormones (the good, the bad, and *sometimes* the ugly)...but, with my last three pregnancies, I have experienced laughter at a brand new level. I know this is a good, no GREAT thing...but, it is a bit silly.
Tonight, we were driving out on some back country roads on our way home. We drove into a neighborhood to look at some homes. This one house had the most rocks for their landscaping that I have ever seen. I was dazzled! I couldn't believe how many rocks there were! Big, huge rocks to medium outlining their yard, trees, flowers, making paths on both sides of the two driveways~ seriously, I wish I had my camera. Anyway, Terry and I were talking about the rock landscaping, and I was commenting over and over how many there were. Then he said it. The sentence that threw this pregnant, hormone flaring mom overboard! He said, "That yard rocks." Oh I lost it. I laughed, and laughed, and laughed. I had tears streaming down my checks. I could barely talk. Yes, he thought I cracked (or was on it), and Nathaniel said, "I don't understand what is so funny!" Know what? Neither did I!! The only logical explanation is that I am pregnant, and it struck those pregnancy hormones into laughing hysterically. I had to think really hard to NOT think of his funny comment. Just writing this still creates a bit of a chuckle.
OK, now you think I have gone nutz-o, too. It's alright. I just say, "It's because I am pregnant." It's what pregnant people do. Every good and bad thing that happens during pregnancy..."The baby made me do it!" It's my story and I am sticking to it.
Exactly! That's definitely my excuse right now, too!

ReplyDeleteI know your humor, you would have laughed even if you weren't pregnant, lol. Maybe not as hard, but still would have tickled your funny bone!
ReplyDeleteThats what I say too!! Or if I really want something, I will tell my hubby, "The baby wants it." This is a funny story!! I was laughing like this the other day too..tears and all. Reading this story made me laugh!!!
