Yes, being pregnant is wonderful. Yes, I am enjoying every blissful minute of my relatively few aches, pains and sickness. But somedays, it just down right sucks! Like this morning for instance when I cried because Doug was doing the laundry. That's right, because he was doing it...not because he wouldn't help me, but because he did and I didn't even ask him. And no, these weren't tears of joy, they were most definitely tears of sadness. Because I knew if he did all my laundry today, all the clothes would be piled up in a big heap on my bed when I got home waiting for me to fold. Plus, the loads would be overstuffed and everything would come out wrinkled and I just really didn't want to iron tomorrow morning before we picked his mom up for breakfast at 8:30. Seriously, what is wrong with me?? I should be jumping for joy that my husband wants to tackle this chore, right? So I had to ask him not to do it, which of course annoyed him. Which in turn made me feel bad, which made me cry. It was my own fault I suppose. I asked him to take the clothes downstairs for me. When he does that I can go down and do the laundry myself and I pull out what needs to be hung up as soon as it's out of the dryer. The rest can sit in baskets until Doug brings it back upstairs and then I fold it. I hang up a lot of stuff, so mostly all that goes in baskets aren't important items anyway. Maybe I'm just being too sensitive or something. If he was willing to pull stuff out and hang it up, I'd be the happiest wife in the world, but since he can't/won't, is it too much to ask for me to want him to do it my way?
On to other things, remember this crib set? I saw it at OUAC last night for $20. Even cuter in person! My mom was with me and she loved it too. I think she almost bought it for me right there, but we decided to wait. We kept talking about it though and she said she was going to try and talk my dad into getting it for me today for a Mother's Day gift. So we'll see. I still really like the set I already got, so if I don't get it no big deal. Still though, it's such a good price!
ETA: The lady I bought my mobile from last weekend called today to say that she found the remote. She's going to drop it by my work one day next week. :)

I hear you on the hormones. If it makes you feel better Josh (most of the time) does the same thing with the laundry! I shouldn't complain when he is always the one that does the laundry (he doesn't want me going down the basement stairs. There isn't a handrail and I'm notoriously clutzy.) But when I'm exhausted and ready to go to bed and there is a pile of wrinkled clothes on the bed to be put away BEFORE I can go to bed. Well... I get a little bent out of shape.
Yay on the monitor and I LOVE that bedding set. BTW, you still haven't posted pics of the one you got. Just saying. ;)
