Concrete Angel

We watched this in one of my classes today. It actually made me cry.

Jared the Scientist.

We were sitting on the couch earlier tonight, when Jared got a random idea.

Jared: "I wonder if I can make Bauer yawn by yawning myself. You know, like when you're in a room and one person yawns, and pretty soon everyone is yawning?"

Char: "Hahah! Yeah right. Good luck with that one."

To my amazement, Bauer actually yawned after Jared did! I know what you are thinking. "That was just a coincidence." am I right? Well, if you are thinking that, you are WRONG.

Jared and I both took MANY turns after that yawning. With out fail, every single time, Bauer would yawn immediately after us.

Do we just have one crazy weird dog, or does yours do it too?!? Try it out with your dog, and report back to me. I mean it.

Easy? I think not.

Being pregnant is NOT easy. Sure yeah, "eat a lot of food, relax, take an extra nap." Okay, I can deal with that part, but why doesn't anybody ever mention the mood swings? I mean HOLY COW! I used to be one of those lucky girls who was always in a good mood. Being pregnant is a different story however. I can't believe half the words that come out of my mouth sometimes. Jared is always like "you choose what mood you want to be in." but I swear I cant help it :) It just happens.

Some days are like this:

Other days it is the complete opposite. Nothing but sunshine and rainbows. I'll even cry because I'm so happy sometimes. Jared will come home from school, and ask me "whats wrong? why are you crying?" and the reason? "Oh i'm just so happy you are home!" not even kidding. True story.

However, this is the face Jared gets to see most often:

My pouty sad face, with tears rolling down the cheeks. Reasons? Most of the time I have NO CLUE why. Just part of being preggo I guess. I'm just glad I have such an amazing husband who supports me through all of these roller coaster emotions I am going through. Couldn't do it without him. Not even for a day.

ps I felt the baby move three times this week!!

Just another week

We went to the cabin for our Memorial day weekend. We brought Bauer, and he absolutely LOVED it.

...and apparently everyone else LOVED him too. Here are my nieces OBSESSING over him. Seriously. So cute :)

We played a couple games of latter ball. aka the BESTEST GAME EVER.

And of course the trip wouldn't be complete without a card game night.

Here's the 16 week belly pic

Baby is growing!
