1) Any baby birth story, adoption story, or any show about either topic.
2) The reveal on each episode of "What Not to Wear." (seriously)
3) The HGTV commercial where the Daddy dresses up to attend his little girl's tea party.
4) The "Best in Show" announcement at the Westminister Dog Show. (Yeah -- I cried, and I'm not even a dog person)
5) Every episode of Vern Yip's "Deserving Design."
6) Gone with the Wind (a movie that has NEVER prompted tears now makes me wail)
7) Any cooking mistakes in the kitchen -- yes, I cry now when my oatmeal boils over.
8) Hubby making fun of me for crying . . .but, to be honest, those are angry tears.
That's right, my "sweet" husband believes that it is perfectly acceptable to make fun of a weeping woman. It doesn't matter that I fire off angry retorts or send soul piercing thunderbolts from my furious eyes. Nope -- the BOY thinks it is ok to laugh.
LAUGH!!!!
Yesterday, he momentarily fooled me, agreeing with how sweet a commercial was. I was touched, falsely thinking that my husband had a heart and understood the reason for the river of tears pouring down my cheeks.
Then, as I looked over at him, I realized he had turned his face away and his body was shaking with laughter.
I threw something at him. Can't remember what it was but I know that it was definitely NOT heavy enough!

ah - fabulous hormones that make you cry at ANYTHING. N E THING!!!
Ah the joys of pregnancy. Find something harder/bigger for your husband. Jerk. ;) (Mine laughed at me too)
Ah the glorious hormones that come along with pregnancy. When I was pregnant with my first I cried because my brother wanted to put the new DVD player in his room and give us his old one to put the living room. *eye roll* Ridiculous.
You should def. find something harder to throw at the hubby. He deserves it :)
Ah Pregnancy hormones LOL :) I went trough it a lot LOL my hubby did the same thing!
Hit the boy on time LOL
Aw hormone induced crying, so very diff from what i'm doing!
Pregnancy made me cry too, and I'm just not a crier. I hated it and my husband laughed at me too. Keep a basket of shoes nearby when you watch tv together. They're better for throwing ;)
that was when I started crying when people won money on game shows...embarrassing...
Oh the blessing/curse of pregnancy tears! Hang in there!
I remember those hormones!
I know exactly what you mean! I was there, not that long ago sista! You won't be like this forever, I swear! The worst show for me, was A Baby Story, I would just sob during the birth!!!
If you are in crying mode, you should definitely not watch the movie "Fireproof." Walmart would not contain enough kleenex tissues...
I see a crying wife as a perfect opportunity for a hug.
Laugh? Never.
Yeah, I'm selfish like that.
Thanks for yet another delightful view into your world, Rachel.
Congratulations! I remember those days...
the joys of pregnancy that men just will never understand...im sorry...hang in there
