Ah, the romance
There's just something ridiculously romantic about an open bar, early 90's rap music, and wedding cake. Or maybe it's just that we were alone together without the kids somewhere other than our living room.
But love was in the air this past weekend.
We'd both spent the entire day racing around after the kids, nursing babies in strapless gowns and stuffing tired toddlers into teeny tuxes.
When we finally had a chance to sit, breathe, and gossip about my mother-in-law's hair, my adorable drunken husband pulled me over (mostly to help him stay upright) and whispered sweet nothings into my ear.
"C'mon honey. I want to make another baby. And then I'll get my balls fixed. I promise."
Let's just say that got him a couple of other blue things to match his vest and tie.
LOL!!!!
At least he offered to get the snip afterwards. That's a step in the right direction!

You carried the first three, he carries the next three. I think it's only fair.

You know what's funny? This would SOOO have turned me on! Nothing makes me climax faster than the dirty thought of my husband impregnating me - and I HATE being pregnant! ;)
It totally turns him on too! Anytime we need to get things going, we "role play" the intention of pregnancy (even though we're not actually trying) and it works every time. There's something kinda hott about fertility.
Well, my husband also thinks me being pregnant is super sexxxy - so go figger.
Er.. umm.. perhaps that was TMI. Is there is such a thing in MU land?

That's ONE way to attempt to make a girl hot...not a good way, mind you (especially because you haven't even had baby #3 long enough to forget that you don't want to ever do THAT again!) Husband's always seem to have a knack for knowing the right thing to say, eh?

Hahahahaha. Wasn't that something Lou Rawls used to sing?

I don't know what's more romantic, your situation or the time my ex got me a toolset for our anniversary.

@Issa -- No, he didn't. And then when he "came to" he said he was just trying to get me horny.
I can think of about 10000000 other ways to do that.

I write for PC games and more than once I/we've written female characters who have flirty dialogue with a male character and always ALWAYS some man remarks about their m!character getting the other f!character knocked up.
In a freakin' game. As in their mighty cyber penis must impregnate the female modeled sprite with their uber-seed in a GAME.
It's creepy beyond words. The wistful little tone in their voices as say it, then smile like it is supposed to be cute or charming.
It is fucking creepy and I don't understand it at. all.
Some men just yearn to be put out to stud I guess. Assholes.

I think that's right up there with the pre and post shower weiner shake the hubby does to get a gal in the mood.

There's nothing like being around extended family to remind you that your smaller family unit is way more awesome than the rest of those people.
And about having four kids... you might have to join some of those large family blog rings.

I'm going to use that line on my wife tonight...just to make sure that we DON'T end up with more than the two kids we already have.

I hope you were the one nursing babies in strapless gowns, not your hubby. And your kids are uber-cute.

Did he remember it the next morning?
Posted by: Issa | May 13, 2009 at 03:26 PM
I'd have snipped him myself right then and there!
Posted by: Jill | May 13, 2009 at 03:11 PM
I call bullshit on that promise, yo. And I hope he wasn't touching your ear with his lips while he whispered because, hello?
EXTRA FERTILE, you two.

Don't do it...
Posted by: mommysaidwhat? | May 13, 2009 at 02:39 PM
hilarious!
maybe if he was the one who had to gain the weight, nurse the kid, get up in the night, take care of every need, etc. you would consider it.
ha!
Posted by: Amy H | May 13, 2009 at 02:35 PM
Well. At least he's offering to get snipped. Although maybe someone should tell him that he probably shouldn't mention another while the last is still nursing.

Promises, promises....

1st - your tired toddler looked so adorable.
2nd - I can't believe anyone picked that blue for a wedding that was past the year like 1987. But the pics amused me all weekend long.
3rd - I think I would've done more than just give him the gift of blue... like maybe using the blue bow tie to strangle him.
