Currently crying because of the Mini Olympics commercial. Then I finally just finished the women's gymnastics team final replay and suddenly I'm chopping all the onions... Nope BAWLING.
We know someone who is 8 months pregnant and has gained a lot of weight because she eats nothing but junk and greasy food, no vegetables or anything (and rags on her husband because he started gaining weight too). I started bawling to my husband that I didn't want to have a Mrs. Potato Head face with chins. I was totally inconsolable. He kept on reassuring me that this isn't our first rodeo and my face didn't get fat at all last time. Didn't matter, I thought I was doomed. Totally out of it.
Simone Manuel tied in first place during the 100m freestyle, receiving the first gold medal as an African American swimmer. I am a little sad that this was overlooked by the media, but her tears in her interview were so heartwarming.... and I'm still crying. ETA: Today, the media outlets are covering Simone Manuel's win. I thought all the events were earlier in the day and just played back. I guess that was just the gymnastics coverage. So happy to see she got the recognition she deserves
@Carly79 I had a similar day this week. Something small set me off and then I was crying because I was stuck in traffic and then had to go to a different grocery store. My hormones are making me crazy.
Furniture shopping today with my inlaws. Really everything was fine but there were a lot of choices to make and I really just wanted to talk to my husband about it and not have my mil included. I sat down in a chair and lost it. My mil came overy to see what was going on and I just blubber ed that I needed space. Thankfully my husband jumped in to help get her to go away for a few minutes. She really did nothing wrong, I think I was just overwhelmed at everything.
ETA: The reason my IL's were with us was because we were looking for a new recliner and they offered to get it for us as an early Christmas present.
I've been in tears multiple times today because DH had some emergency at work that came up this morning and he's been in the office for 10hrs straight now. I just miss my husband dang it!
Aw @mommywesley, I know these feels! They always act like you're crazy too when they finally come home and you're so happy to see them haha.
I had to go to a conference a couple of weeks ago and found myself waking up in tears a couple of nights in a row because I missed OH. When I got home, I of course blamed the baby and was like, "The baby missed you!"
That new Amazon prime commercial where the baby is obsessed with her stuffed animal lion but ignores the dog. So the dad orders the dog a lion mane... And then the baby reaches out and pets the dog
@krissycole510 yes! Everytime. I hug whichever pup is closes to me and tell him I will make sure that baby loves him. I admit though that the Golden doesn't have the sad eyes that I think the dog should hsve in the commercial, the dog always looks like he is pissed off, judgy, or too noble to worry about baby. Lol.
@krissycole510@AmRe214 I have definitely cried over that commercial. It makes me so sad though because that is not a brand new baby and they seem to disregard the dog until he gets the lion mane. I get so sad for the dog and then so happy that they can be a happy family. It's just too much.
I went to a wedding yesterday and it was in Spanish. I could follow along for everything up until the sermon because Catholic mass is the same in every language. Not sure how because I couldn't understand the priest's accent well, but I lost it during the sermon. My husband looked at me and goes "Are you understanding everything?" and I go "No, I can barely understand him, but it's just so emotional." My in laws were very entertained.
My husband wrote a song for the baby and sent it to me this morning while I'm away on a bachelorette weekend. I ugly cried in my room this morning listening to it over and over. He mentions in the song "it's hard to write a song about a girl you've never met, but then again I wrote one for your mom" which makes me tear up because he wrote me the sweetest song after we had only been on two dates. Ugly cry, I tell you.
The husband has been on edge all day and I went into the bedroom where he is installing new flooring to give him the supplies he requested from home depot. I wanted to say something to him so I asked him to turn off his music, he gave me a mean look and said "no" if that wasn't enough, i went to hand him the bag and tipped over the lamp that was sitting on the floor and broke the bulb. Cue ugly cry he found me crying and started laughing. I didn't think it was funny so it made me cry more.

Today DH found me crying because after he took our big boys to church (I stayed home with sick littles) he came home and had to work again and I was upset that I "missed" his only 3hr break today because I had to stay home with sick kids. I didn't want him to find me crying, because this weekend has been over the top stressful for him and the last thing I want is for him to feel guilty about it! He was very sweet and took a 20min break to comfort me. I hit the jackpot with that one I tell ya! (And of course he laughed at me because of how ridiculous I sounded trying to explain my tears to him lol)
I was curious to see the Amazon Prime commercial @krissycole510 was talking about so I looked on YouTube. This is the video I clicked first. https://youtu.be/u9H_1hhC350 Spoiler alert: it's a video made by someone with a strange sense of humor who decided to change the ending of the commercial. I did eventually find the original commercial. @AmRe214 you're right, that Golden didn't look really sad. My Golden has the saddest eyes I've ever seen. She would have been perfect for that commercial.
I cried because I saw a video of a baby kuala that was snuggling a stuffed animal kuala because it had been abandoned or its mother died they didn't say they just were like "cute baby kuala!" And I was like "where is its mother!!! Why is it snuggling a fake mother?!? It's all alone in the world! What if I die!" And basically it was all downhill from there.
Less funny reason my right hand work partner is leaving for a new job, I own the business and I don't know how I'm going to do it without her and now I'm not sure if I can take a maternity leave and I sobbed all night and felt like I had been through a break up. Still gonna cry about that I think
DH agreed to name the baby Michael, after my father who passed away when I was 17 and whose birthday was in January. DH really wanted a third, but finally understood how much it meant to me. I freaking lost it and was crying my eyes out - roughly two minutes before our company was about to pull in the driveway. Did I mention I had full eye makeup? Whatever. I'm so happy!
I read an article about feeling grateful for motherhood, even when it's hard. One of the last lines said, "You're children will never again love you as much as they do right now," I looked at DD, who'd been exceptionally trying, and just lost it.
I cried the other day while making chicken fried rice. Something about having chicken and eggs in the same dish made me so sad. Pregnancy is weird, guys.

I couldn't even post this, last week because I was so upset. My twin sister had to put her cat down, last week. Her name was Thumbellina (because she has an extra toe on each paw.) It always looked like she was wearing mittens. She was the sweetest most lovable cat. My sister was on vacation and I had checked on her cat even though my sister had a sitter for her. The sitter wasn't giving updates to my sister. I went to check on her cat, and the house smelled like cat urine. I saw my sister's cat on the stairs, and she didn't even lift her head when I came in the house. I told my sister to make a vet appt immediately. My sister made the appointment for the next day, and the vet told her she either had a tumor in her brain or a severe stroke, which left her cat completely blind and with severe deficits on one side of her body . She said in her cat's condition it would be best to put her down, because her cat had other issues where she probably wouldn't survive the testing to treat her. We spent the next day giving Thumbellina cat nip, wet cat food, and taking her outdoors, just crossing off items on her kitty bucket list. That night, I slept beside her bed, and Thumbellina was by the stairs. When I picked her up, and moved her to her bed, she walked right back to he bottom of the stairs. I brought her back to her bed, and she returned to the stairs. All of a sudden I heard my three year old nephew screaming, I ran to the top of the stairs, and let him know he just had a bad dream. When he drifted off to sleep, again, I went back downstairs, and there was Thumbellina. I picked her up and she growled at me. I told her that he was okay and was sleeping now. Immediately, she started purring and slept in my arms. The day my sister put her cat down, she brought her cat's favorite blanket and read her a letter about how she had found her as a kitten. Thumbellina's previous owner went home for winter break, and left her outdoors, in the winter, because she couldn't bring her home. My sister brought her inside and kept her safe for 15 years. When the doctor injected the serum to put Thumbellina to sleep, my sister read her son's favorite book called "Go to Sleep, My Love". I was sobbing as we said goodbye to her in that heartbreaking moment and hugged my sister as tight as I could. I miss Thumbellina so much. Seeing her take her last breath was do incredibly sad, but seeing my sister's pain, in that moment, is what broke my heart. I tried to be strong for my sister, but when I was home alone, all I did was cry.
Thank you. Sometimes, I still dream that it's the day we have to put her down again, and I wake up in fear of that horrible day. Last night, however, I dreamt that she was in my MawMaw's lap on a porch, in the warm sun, while my MawMaw was rocking her. My MawMaw smiled and waved with one hand and was petting Thumbellina with the other hand, and Thumbellina was purring. I woke up and cried some more, but I feel a little more at peace, this morning.

This reminds me of the very weird and random FB posting that keeps coming up in my newsfeed. If you google "Facebook egg inside an egg" you'll see it. It's basically making my brain explode.
Last night I went to the Jason Aldean and Kid Rock concert with my husband for our one year anniversary that is tomorrow...for Kid Rock, I stood up the whole time, and then when Jason Aldean came on I was tired so I sat down for a bit. I started getting a teary eyed because my legs hurt from standing and I felt bad that I was the only one in the section sitting and felt lame. Not really a reason to cry and I was like why am I crying? But the tears came on for no reason....
Ah. It felt like I cried all day today. For various reasons. The husband and I got in a big fight this morning and it just set the tone for the whole day. I went grocery shopping and it took everything for me to keep it together while I was in the store. Just having a really off day.

I am not much of a crier (I can count on one hand the number of times I've cried in the last year). Last night, I cried and cried because I am just SO uncomfortably bloated and gassy after eating a normal size meal. I also laughed while crying, because I can't believe that is why I was crying. All I had for dinner was a veggie burger! The uncomfortable-ness from being full seriously stops me from getting a good sleep and it's hard to breathe. H was sweet and kept a straight face whilst I was crying re: my gas issues. I know my problems could be so much worse, but figured i should join in on the crying party.
Crying this weekend because DH and I had separate things to attend and I keep feeling like our weekends are being taken away from us! With all the anxiety I've had the last few weeks, it doesn't help when our very limited time is having to be spent apart due to, you know, normal stuff like birthday parties and grocery shopping.....lol
I'm tired of being pregnant and not able to do anything. We are at s resort with BIL and SIL and they are doing stuff that I can't do. Being around drunk people isn't much fun, drinks by the pool, drinks at the hotel bar, couple bottles of wine at dinner. Now they plan on doing segway tour this morning and of course pregnant people can't ride. So on top of all the hormones, lack of sleep from the uncomfortable bed, I'm feeling really sad, moody and left out.
So, I'm throwing myself a pity party in the room feeling like I'm just a boring wet blanket.
Re: Why my pregnant self is crying..
Oh! And I almost cried last night because DH went and got me Mr. Goodcents for dinner!
