April

I can't believe it's near the end of April.. only two more weeks and we'll have our baby girl here. I'm huge to prove it. I get lots of funny comments about the way I look pregnant.. Pretty much just really big and sticking right out of my gut. One guy at church said it looked like my baby was pushing his feet against my spine and stretching out. I'm getting tired of the old maternity clothes. I've worn the same pair of jeans for the last two weeks I think, and am usually wearing one of Ben's sweatshirts or jackets. I am bravely posting two pictures for those of you who can't imagine how big I really get. Although, I don't think that the pictures come close to the real thing.

As for what we've been up to. We had a fabulous time at baby animal days a few weeks ago. Noah loved holding the baby bunnies.. which is odd because he's terrified of so many other animals. He's so unpredictable, but he must be getting better. Funniest thing we were at the zoo and we happened to walk past a peacock... he says, "i don't like that peacock, maybe we should go see the bears".. scared of a peacock but loves the bears. he also liked the pony rides at baby animal days.

Conference Weekend, Noah and I were in Bountiful spending the weekend with my sister and Ben was out on a trip. It worked out that he was flying out Sunday night to Bozeman Montana with a good sized layover, then coming right back in the morning. There was room for both Noah and I on the plane, so we jumped on last minute.. no luggage, no nothing.. just some extra dipes and my wallet and phone. it was great fun. we sat at the back of the plane and when Ben's voice came on the intercom, Noah was looking around saying "that's my dad". Noah got to go up to the cockpit and sit on Ben's lap and see all t he cool gadgets. He's a really good traveler, but insists that I keep my hand across his belly/chest "holding him safe".. it's sweet, but hard to do when I've got a watermellon sized belly. The flight was short, and Noah always falls asleep, so I just relaxed. Ben flew both legs of the trip, and it was just super fun to be on his flight. Because it was so last minute, I don't have any pictures. No more traveling for me though, not till after baby arrives.

Oh my gosh, Noah is so CUTE in those pictures - riding a pony - sheesh! What a fun post, very brave of you to put pictures of yourself on there, and you're so cute! I know you don't feel that way, but it's true. That's so fun that the baby's almost here! And reading about you jumping on the flight last minute because there was room reminds me of our summer with Skywest and flight benefits. So fun!

Camille, I found your blog via Claire's a couple of weeks ago. I think you look very cute pregnant. I think people say the dumbest things to pregnant ladies. It was fun to see what you've been up to. Good luck with the baby girl!

I think you look amazing! I must have forgotten how bad it sucks to be 9 months pregnant cause I found myself being a little jealous! You really do look awesome! We missed baby animal days this year. Noah looks so cute on that pony! Simon would have loved that! If I don't talk to you before good luck with the baby! Let us all know when the big day comes!

How exciting! Unlike Amy (who must be ready for baby #2) I am not jealous of the being pregnant thing. Mylee is 4 months old now though and no longer a newborn and I love newborns.

I can't believe she's coming in 2 weeks! I'm excited for you, babies are so sweet. Hope everything goes well. Are you a scheduled c-section?
