A Very Demanding WATERMELON

We're officially in the ninth month of pregnancy!  This has been such a crazy time in our lives and it's amazing that we've been able to get through it.  But what's probably even more amazing is how long Mommy's been sober!  If this were AA, Daddy would certainly get some credit for being such a great sponsor =)

This week also marks the final installment of the Baby Produce series.  Our sour little lemon is now a full grown watermelon!  As inconvenient as it may be carrying this heavy fruit around, there are some benefits that only a mother-to-be can take advantage of.  If anything, carrying a bun in the oven is like having a bomb strapped to your belly...people are careful when they get near you and all your demands will be met.  Walking belly first down a crowded grocery aisle will make people part like you were Moses.  Taking the only breast in that Popeye's 12-piece chicken box won't ruin your reputation this time.  All you have to do is point to that melon in your tummy and everyone becomes your personal genie!

Jealous?  Don't worry, this "star" treatment won't last forever.  All good things must come to an end and it's only a matter of time before Baby Campos throws a fit in public....definitely not ready for those evil stares quite yet.

Pregnancy: Based on the Novel "Push" by Sapphire

"I wish I had a light-skinned boyfriend with real nice hair. And I wanna be on the cover of a magazine. But first I wanna be in one of them BET videos. Momma said I can't dance. Plus, she said who wants to see my big ass dancing, anyhow?"
-Precious, pregnant teen

There's no doubt that Mommy is sporting the body of a full-blown pregnant woman.  With only one week left until term, the signs that the bun-in-the-oven is about done are really starting to show: the ostentatious outtie, those curious cankles, the wobbly waddle.  If you think mothers-to-be complain too much towards the end, you should try walking with a bowling ball between your legs!

To help understand what her body is going through and what to expect when the big day arrives, Mommy and Daddy have been taking pregnancy classes over the past month.  The most important lesson: IT'S NOT LIKE THE MOVIES.   There won't be a dramatic car race to the hospital, a profanity-laced tirade while pushing, and Baby Campos won't pop out ready for an Anne Geddes portrait.  It's actually going to be a lot more like a middle school sock-hop: a lot of slow dancing and people overly concerned about 3rd base.
