How did I miss your pregnancy announcement!

Many congratulations and keep those tears a rolling - crying is a great release as far as I'm concerned...:-)

Oh man, before I was every pregnant, I only cried at the TV when I had PMS. My family has a couple moments they remember from my high school years. Really embarrassing moments like some crappy made-for-tv holiday movies (The Christmas Goose) and one of the worst movies Pierce Brosnan ever made (Dante's Peak). When I was pregnant, I cried at EVERYTHING, and now even though Charlotte is 14 months old, I still do. The worst one when I was pregnant? Liberty Mutual commercials - the ones where they show people being nice to each other just because they are good people. Made me bawl every time.

I think I was watching "Stick It" with you..."Bring It On" came on next (I LOVE that silly movie!). It was my second time seeing "Stick It," and this time I was teary, too...such big revelations for that stubborn girl!

I can't say that I am overly emotional or hormonal, I am neither pregnant nor expecting to be any time soon (though we did have a scare a couple weeks back), but even when I was with child I can't remember any emotional drama over seem to be nothings (Maybe it's pregnancy amnesia)…

My son however has been having those emotional outbursts. At first, it was the blender that would have him in an irrevocable state of tears. Now it is the washing machine and dryer too. And saying no to him can cause a whole new set of tears.

From a child who smiles at everything and everyone (I have strangers smiling at me in the street and then I realize it is JR who they are smiling at, (he flirts)…), he has become way more cautious.

A couple weeks ago we were having a nice weekend brunch at IHOP and he cried every time our waitress came close to the table. She was so nice and smiley to him and he was smiling back at her at first, but then suddenly he was terrified of her. She tried sneaking around him to give us our order so that he wouldn't start again, but that didn't help - he HAS TO KNOW who is behind him, and he wouldn't have it!

It would have been funny if it wasn't so embarrassing to be "that couple" with the noisy kid in the restaurant…

coolteamblt, that would've made me cry, too.

Sammy, I'm so glad I'm not alone.

Well...I'll give you fair warning because the tears brought on by nothing at all does not get any better. In fact, it only gets worse...especially when people convince you that the 2's are as worse as it comes and then they turn 3 and you realize that God makes kids funny for a reason...so they'll survive another year! I'm so sorry because it's tough. They seem to turn into these other people over night and you're left wondering what happened to your sweet baby!!!! *Sigh* good days and bad days...good days and bad days. I think this is part of that whole in sickness and health, in good times and bad...only with parenting.

I cried once during an episode of FULL HOUSE. How sickening is that? It was the episode where the grandfather died. I'm not sure if it was before or after my grandma died, but I can't watch any funeral or deceased relative things anymore without getting sad. I cry at anyone's funeral, so I hate to go to them now. I mean like, sobbing, no matter how well I know the person.

Oh, and I get choked up at the end of the Ghost Whisperer when the ghost goes into the light. Every. Time. ???

As far as Axel, toddler + separation anxiety = raving lunatic. I'm so sorry, I knew this day would come, but I was hoping he'd have a milder case than Michael. Sweet little Axel has turned into a toddler.

When I was pregnant with Julia I burst in to tears rather suddenly because one of my cats had walked by. And I just LOVED THOSE DAMN CATS.

I am a huge sap too. It wasn't even two weeks ago that I was crying over 'Back to School For Franklin."

I'm nine months pregnant over here, and I cried because this guy in the grocery store with a pink and blue mohawk stopped and helped this little old lady get a twelve pack of soda off the shelf above her head. He didn't work there, he was just being nice. I booked it around the corner and sobbed into the collar of my shirt. Hoo boy!

I cry during that Pampers commercial too, and I'm not even pregnant. My hormones may be back to normal but I've remained extremely, pathetically sensitive when it comes to babies and children.

1) Congrats on a gorgeous son and another child on the way!

2) I also choked up last night when the coach told her he's proud of her, and I don't even have the excuse of being pregnant.

Love the blog!

If it's any consolation, I am NOT pregnant and I still find myself crying at some very surprising times. Case in point: Oprah. I think that woman pipes subliminal messages into her show because I wind up crying almost every time I watch her show. She's canny, that one.
