Best Husband Award

I haven't had too many cravings this pregnancy.  I'll eat something for about a week and then get sick of it.  There haven't been too many times when I've HAD to have something.  Only 2 that I can really think of. 
But wouldn't you know that when I've wanted those things it's been late at night?  Of course it has.
And wouldn't you also know that my sweet husband has come through both times?
The first one was a turkey sandwich.  I just had to have one!  We drove all around Edmond looking at Subways and other shops.  All closed.  Of course it was around 11:00 at night.  We finally found a place open until midnight.  It was the most delicious sandwich I've had.  And Jeff never complained once about the time it took to find it.
A couple Saturdays ago, after working on projects for our house and nursery ALL day I just HAD to have a sugar cookie with frosting.
You would think this would be an easy task right?
We started at Uptown Grocery.  No luck.  All they had was those gross Lofthouse cookies which I refuse to touch.
Next it was City Bites.  They close at 8:00!!  What??  I was so annoyed.
Then we tried Sunflower Market.  Where as luck would have it they had sugar cookies but no frosting readily available.  (That's what you get for going to an "Organic" place.
So we bought 2 cookies and headed to the next stop.
We thought surely 7-11 would have a can of frosting so we stopped by the one near our house.  Nope.
I was just going to give up, but Jeff wouldn't.
He was determined that I was going to have a sugar cookie with frosting.
He drove all the way across town again to the Walmart Market and got a can of frosting.

I swear it was the most delicious cookie I've ever eaten. I even had a leftover for Sunday the next day!
And yes, that is Judge Judy in the background.  We Hales' LOVE court tv.  It's a staple in our home:)
He really has been the sweetest most supportive husband throughout this pregnancy.  I can count on foot rubs whenever I need one.  And always done with a smile.
I simply ADORE him.  Everyday I think how lucky I am to be married to him.  He was DEFINITELY worth the wait to to turn legal:)
To show my appreciation I try to make Jeff food once in awhile...... Jeff food is meat and potatoes.  I made these ribs a couple weeks back.  They were so good I almost cried.  The picture doesn't do them justice.  A little crunch on the outside and tender to the point of falling off the bone on the inside.
And that is probably my biggest secret to a happy husband.  Give that boy some meat and he's putty in my hands.
Love you SO, SO, SO much Jeffrey!!!!!!!
Thanks for taking such great care of me and little bird.
