those bryan compliments

Bryan has said some extraordinary things. His comments that have stuck with me are all the ones he has said while I was pregnant. There are so many more than this, but I just don't have the time to write them all!

Pregnant with Isaiah  - I was complaining about my largeness, and he thought he'd make me feel better by calling me "his butterball". Apparently, it was a term of endearment.

Pregnant with Elias  - I was again, complaining about my largeness, and he thought he'd make me feel better by saying, "You're not nearly as big now as you were the first time".

Pregnant with Raelynn - He said, "you just look so much healthier this pregnancy than the others" - he usually uses "healthy" to describe overweight people.

Apparently Jim Belushi and I are similar....

Pregnant with #4 - You remind me of Jim Belushi from that show with the blonde chick because he would sit down on the couch after work and unbutton his pants and pop a beer. Wow. That is the doozy of them all. My husband compared me to Jim Belushi and I'm only 15 weeks along...what will he say when I'm 40 weeks?!

OK. OK. I have to give him a little credit, I may just unbutton my pants every night after dinner because I can't handle the tightness any longer. Maybe I should have prefaced the story with that? hehe

Anyhow, a little background - Bryan's "compliments" have never made me cry, they only make me laugh. I know he means well by what he says...well, how can you mean well by comparing me to Mr. Belushi, but I really gave him no choice by unbuttoning my pants after dinner (yet again)....anyway, back to the background. He means well, he just doesn't communicate well. I give him credit for making me laugh. ALL. THE. TIME.
