If You Got Drama, SQUASH It!

This past weekend was our 2nd Baby Shower in "The Mitten!"  Future Grandmas Lucy and Nile did a great job planning and hosting the event.  Everything was perfect, even the random "brown out" that somehow made it feel like we were in the Philippines.  We are definitely lucky to have such a generous and thoughtful family.  After receiving so many wonderful gifts, it's official...Baby Campos now has more clothes than her parents!

So over Weeks 29-32, the once little parasite will have a major growth spurt and nearly triple in size!  Now that she's as big as a butternut squash, it's really starting to get cramped inside the bump.  Plus, her bones are starting to harden from absorbing all the sweet, sweet calcium that makes her punches feel like Pacquiao beating up on another Mexican.

Even though Mommy isn't a big advocate of pugilism, the aches and pains of pregnancy can certainly make one's patience short.  The other day while going to get lunch, a businessman was perched on a bench outside the building, enjoying a cigarette while blowing billows of smoke into the air.  Walking by, Mommy casually waved away the lung-poison before it neared her nostrils.  Suddenly the man blurted out: "You know, there are other exits to this building."  Shocked at his disregard for an obviously pregnant woman, she summoned the will of 100 virgins to not turn around and give him the Rick James face-handshake.  What would you have done?  Needless to say, confronting this soul-less creature would've induced unnecessary stress for Baby Campos.  So like gang members were encouraged to do in the 90's PSA video below, Mommy decided to "Squash It" with hopes that karma will sort it all out in the end..."karma" being Daddy's nickname for his fists.
