A post of random stories.

Before I had this blog, I was so sure that I would constantly have stuff to write about.  Instead I have has a bit of Blogger's block (that's a real thing right).  Well I have decided to share some stories that probably aren't long enough to warrant their own post. 

D is pretty clueless when it comes to pregnancy and babies, despite the fact that I am constantly talking about babies or watching baby shows.  D's cousin is pregnant and asked us to bring her some gingerale a month ago when it was like -30C outside.  Her and her fiance don't have a car.  So D and I walk out to the car to get the gingerale.  D has a very concerned look on his face, so I ask what is wrong.  He said "I am worried about Trish, can being pregnant make a woman sick."  It took every ounce of self control I had to not laugh.  I explained what morning sickness was and how some women have it worse than others and that it doesn't always occur in the morning.

Just a couple days ago D went to visit this same cousin.  He then called me when he was on his way home, to tell me how the visit went.   Here is how that conversation went:
D:  She's doing good.  She showed me one of those pictures they take of your gut
Me:  You mean an ultrasound?
D:  Yeah one of those, the baby looked like a bean. 
I really should have asked what he expected it to look like.

Please don't get me wrong, D isn't stupid, he just doesn't pay attention to things that don't interest him and in the past babies and pregnancy held no interest to him. 

Now to show you what a goof ball D is, here is a picture of D wearing a purse I knitted as a hat.
He's so cool.
