It's a.................

GIRL!!! Yes, we are going to have a new little girl to add to our Cameron family!! We were excited to go to UC Baby last Saturday and see what this little one looks like! Turns out, of course, my lack of willpower made me give in and I "needed" to know what it was! I was very surprised (along with everyone else!) when she said it was a GIRL! I really did think that it was a boy again, despite the fact of how I'm carrying a bit differently. But everything else has been the same as my pregnancy with Colby. No morning sickness, gaining weight, heartbeat... and the list goes on. So I cried quite a bit lying on the bed when I found out it was a girl, both out of shock, surprise, and sheer excitement!!! She looks SO similar to Colby, it's crazy!! The ultrasound tech said she looks like Mommy, but she definitely has Gerry's little mouth, Colby's chubby cheeks, little button nose, and dimple above her top lip. I absolutely loved the opportunity to see our little girl in ultrasound before she arrives!! What a great moment and day!! This pregnancy has gone by SO incredibly quickly and I can't believe there's only 3 more months until my due date!! With summer here, I'm sure it will go by very quickly too!!

Last Saturday, we also purchased Colby's toddler bed and mattress. The "office" is not ready for him to move in yet, but slowly, we will get there. Everything is coming out of the office and we will move Colby to his new "big boy" bedroom with his new "big boy" bed. He has been very curious and enjoys his new bed already, so hopefully all will go well with the transition! Colby had a great week with Auntie Jody and Auntie Mandy. He plays so well with Kendra and Hailey that I'm not concerned to leave him at all. Thank goodness! :) After a difficult time with Katie and Auntie Kathy at our house on Sunday night, I was pretty scared of how he'd do with the other girls this week.

It has been a crazy week at school, as the end of June always is. Long days, late nights, and little sleep make for one tired, pregnant Mrs. Cameron!!! We did a lot of walking, little field trips, swimming at the pool, and stuff to keep busy after report cards are all done and teaching is finished. So now I have one more day at school on Monday (staff meeting, class list creation, and of course, lunch!) and then I'm off until September 2010!! Seems so far away, but sadly, I know my year off will go so quickly! I can't wait to spend some quality time with my little man before the baby arrives and then of course, have my two beautiful children at home for the year!! Such a great job I have, being a Mommy!!!

Gerry and I are going to finish bringing home my classroom boxes and begin to get ready to go camping next week. We're leaving on Tuesday night through Sunday to Gull Lake, which will be a lot of fun! Have a great weekend everyone and take care!
