The Wife is about 6 months pregnant with child N0. 3. I figured since we had been through this whole pregnancy thing twice before, I had become somewhat of an expert.
WRONG!
The Wife infomed me that she needed some maternity jeans.
I asked her (as any normal loving husband would), “Aren’t those maternity jeans you are wearing now?”
She replied, “Yes, but these don’t fit right and they are uncomfortable.”
When you are pregnant, does anything fit right and aren’t you always uncomfortable?
That God’s way of convincing you to push that kid out. You want to fit into your favorite blue jeans again and be able to sleep through the night.
Anyway, The Wife rarely shops for new clothes and since she is the mother of my children…she desreves a new pair of jeans. How much could an article of clothing made of denim and spandex cost anyway?
*GASP*
Are you kidding me? If my life depended on it…if I was being held against my will and my ticket to freedom was to estimate how much a pair of pregnant lady jeans cost…I would die…I would never take a breath as a free man again.
I couldn’t believe they could cost that much.
The Wife was putting on a good show at the Pregnant Lady Jean Store. You know the whole, “I really like how comfortable these are, but we can’t pay that much….I guess I’ll just keep wearing these old ones that I hate and that cut off the circulation of blood to your unborn child” routine.
I fell for it hook, line, and sinker. But I did tell her that for that price, I had better see her wear those everyday until this baby is born.
And after that I might squeeze into them and wear them myself…I mean they do have spandex around the stomach area. Why don’t I have a pair?
