My husband can be a bit overdramatic at times. He has several stories from his childhood that involve "traumatic experiences." For instance, his parents once took him to a seafood restaurant and ordered oysters. When the waiter brought the oysters to the table, they looked so disgusting that Jason immediately threw up in the middle of the restaurant. He hasn't eaten seafood in the 15 years since.
Today, he comes up to me and says in a solemn voice reminiscent of a police officer waiting on your doorstep with bad news, "Baby, you're gonna need to go in the baby's room. There's been an accident."
WHAAT?!
Oh, the dog had an accident. The dog pooped in the floor and he's too squeamish to clean it up, but he makes it sound like I'm walking into a nightmare. Maybe his nightmare is having to clean up poop off the floor, but mine involve a hurt baby! I've asked him to tone down the theatricality a little bit, but we still have incidents like this...
Jason is giving Jackson a bath when he starts screaming "EMERGENCY! EMERGENCY!" I run into the bathroom expecting to have to give baby CPR (which I don't really remember how to do) to a drowning toddler, only to see that Jason is holding a laughing Jackson in his arms.
"What the HELL?" I say, clutching my heart as it tries frantically to beat out of my chest. "WHAT is the freaking emergency??"
"Oh, Jackson pooped in the tub. I'm gonna go put him to bed, you clean that up."

Let's Lighten Things Up A Little Bit
Does your husband do anything that you find completely ridiculous?

12 love me:
Bwhaah!
My hubby is the king of overdramatics. Now Maddie is doing it too.
Her favorite is to act like daddy, grab her chest and yell "Oh it's the big one!"
Who doesn't want their 4 year old pretending to have a heart attack?
My hubs is a drama queen when it comes to being sick, but I think most men are like that. lol
AAAAHHAHAHAHAHAHAAA! That's a great story, thanks for sharing! I needed a good laugh.
Now that is too funny! My husband doesn't do too much like that, although last year when Marlee got the flu, and threw up all over me, he just sat there and watched instead of getting me anything to help me clean it up. All the while he was gagging and it didn't even smell at that point in time!
Oh man, not sure I could handle all the drama without a heart attack! My husband likes to try to tell me stuff that isn't true to see how long until I figure out it's a joke.
omgosh - while funny that would drive me nuts!
That is so like my husband! It drives me nuts!!
I. Think. That. Is. Hysterical. But only because it's your husband, and not mine. :)
What is it about men and poop??? My hubs is the same way, overly dramatic.
Oh my gosh that is so funny! I can relate my heart would have jumped in my throat with both of those stories thinking about a hurt child not poop! LOL
My hubs is the same way with any poop, he gags, hates it ... but not sure he has ever really yelled in a way that scared me, except maybe one time when he wanted me to quick and come see their lego robot they built as if it required the scream that sounded like something went wrong ... LOL
I laughed as I read this but I had to really think about it before telling you how funny it sounds because I'm sure you don't find it all that funny everytime, LOL.
Talk about "the boy who cried wolf"!
I would have to say my biggest pet peeve is my husband FAKING sleep. He'll sit/lay on the couch and as soon as one of the kids or I ask him a question he'll pretend to be asleep.... THEN, as we give up and walk away, he does this fake, startled gasping of breath and makes his eyes REALLY wide. As if we actually woke him up.
He just won't "wake up" while we are yelling his name. He waits until we walk away. LOL. DRIVES ME NUTS.
puke is probably my DHs "thing", if one of the kids pukes, he's bound to do it too LOL
