My Fancy Hair Do.

Yesterday Jennica styled my hair for me while I was working on the computer. Aaron even helped some. Isn't it boutiful!

20 Weeks!

I feel like there is SO MUCH going on right now that I'm dieing to blog about, but I can't yet... I need to wait till a few more issues are resolved.

So for the time being you'll all have to settle for your Camille McClelland blog fix by checking out some pictures of my 20 week HOT preggo bod! lol...

Happy Easter!

Happy Easter!

Easter was such a fun day. We started with the kids waking us up, asking if they could eat the goodies from their Easter baskets. They were all being so well behaved, I wasn't quit sure where they came from and what they had done with my real children.

After that, we did our traditional jelly bean hunt inside the house. Every year the Easter bunny hides jelly beans all over the living room, and the kids have to find them all.

After that was finished up (I think it took all of 5 minutes,) we started working on breakfast.

Pancakes with slices strawberries and banannas, sausage, applesauce and juice. Yum! It was so good. During breakfast, Noah suddently looks at the applesauce and reads the container, exclaiming to us, "Applesauce is a fat free food!" Woohoo!

Then we got ready for church services. The kids looked so good in their new Easter clothes, which my mother in law picked out and sent. I think she did an awesome job! The kids looked awesome, and Noah was SOOOOOOOOO excited about his new blazer, with all the pockets, just like dads.

During this whole time Jennica started to complain about her tummy. She hadn't eaten any of her Easter candy, so knew she really wasn't feeling good.

We took some pictures inside the house and then went outside and took some together. The one picture with me in it really didn't turn out very well. I know you're all sad, but you'll have to live without it.

We went to church together, but Jennica still wasn't feeling very well so after sacrament service I took her home and had her rest in bed.

She started to feel better, so when church was finished we went back and picked up Andy and the boys and drove over to my parents house for dinner.

We took some more pictures when we got there, but Jennica had already changed out of her dress, and told me her hair hurt her head, so next to the boys all dressed up she looks a bit like a rag-a-muffin.

We also took some pictures of my nieces, Sariah and Emily. Sariah just turned 12, Happy Birthday! Isn't she turning into a lovely young women?

After dinner we took the kids outside for an easter egg hunt. My nephew, Ethan, was a madman on a mission. He collected so many eggs it was funny, but then he lovingly shared his abundance with the other children.

Later we put Sariah in charge of all the kids and my mom presented a power point presentation she had helped create for President Walker on Family History work. It was really beautiful and had so much important information. I left with a much better understanding of the importance of this great work. The presentation will be shown at a regional family history conference coming up soon.

Even though it was overcast and a bit on the cold side all day, it was a lovely Easter. I just love to be with family and spend time together. My kids are begining to understand the meaning of Easter and the sacrafice the Savior made for us.

I am so grateful for my children and my family. I am so grateful that through the atonement of our Savior we can be forgiven of our sins and return and live with him again. Easter is one of my favorite holidays.

Noah's Spring Music Program

Yesterday was Noahs Spring Music Program. It ws so cute! The whole program theme was about bugs going to congress to pass the Bugs bill of rights.

I took some great video, but I'm having problems getting it to upload. I'll keep trying, but if anyone has any tips please let me know. I'm getting an unable to upload your video error.

Noah's elementary School is a bit overcrowded. The music teacher does an amazing job considering she had to give up her class room this year. For music class the teacher has to push around her music cart from class to class. They either practice in the kids

classroom or in the hall way.

Also as a result of the size of the student body they break up the music programs. First grade and 3rd grade have a Christmas Program, 2nd grade and and fourth grade have the spring music program, and I'm not sure about kindergarden and fifth grade. They must have a program just before school gets out.

Anyway, Noah did so well and was so cute with his little buggy antenae. Hopefully I can get the video uploaded later this evening. It's so cute!

It's a BOY!

Go figure. Well, I did kind of expect it, and I can't say I'm at all surprised.

I guess this means I'll be able to sell all those cute little girl clothes I've been hanging onto from Jennica. Maybe I'll make enough to buy my new favorite stroller... An Orbit Infant System. They retail in the $900 range, but I might be able to get a wholesale deal on a demo model... I hope so. I want one.

Now for baby names. We're thinking we kind of have to name the baby Vincent.. Let me explain why.

I guess it was about a year ago, Andy and I were at the temple doing sealings. For those of you not of our faith, sealings are a sacred ordinance performed in our temples, that we believe gives families the opportunity to be together after this life. Anyway, it's a very quiet and spiritual experience to be involved it. The typical session lasts for a couple hours, and except for the persons performing the ordination the rest of the room is very quiet. During this particular time Andy and I were observing and Andy heard a distinct voice say to him, "Vincent wants to know when he's going to be born." Up until this time, Andy still wasn't completely convinced we should have another child at all, as we both would have kind of enjoyed being finished. Vincent is a family name, as almost all of my fathers ancestors come from a little town in Italy called San Nicola, La Strada, located near Naples.

Now we knew we were going to have another baby, and apparently we were suppose to name it Vincent. Honestly, I'm not crazy about the name. Maybe it's a good middle name. If it was a girl, I would have had to name her Vincenza. Vincenza McClelland... Poor child wouldn't have had a chance.

I suppose I'm glad it's a boy. This is definately the last baby, and if it had been a girl I would have felt guilty about not trying one more time after this one for little Vincent.

Oh yeah, everything else looks great for the little baby, all is normal and healthy looking. My boy is also a huge wiggler.

18.5 weeks

I know, I know, can't I find anyone to take my picture? Well, my 5 yr old Jennica is home, but sometimes it's just easier and faster to take them myself.

So here is how I look now. I'm at 18.5weeks. To be perfectly honest, there is quite a bit of fat there. This is the most weight I've put on this early in pregnancy. It was really hard to control. My moring sickness was so bad, that if it remotely sounded good I ate it. Unfortunately one thing that always sounded good were those hostess pudding pie things... Oh yum! And Budget Gourmet Salsbury Steak "dinners." I use the term dinner lightly because it's really more of a snack. Oh well. It's the last baby! That also means it's the last time I'll have to loose all the post baby weight gain.

In the pictures I am wearing my post pregnancy size 12 jeans, and I can actually button them all the way up and they are quite comfortable. That's a bit depressing then I consider after the baby is born it will take me a month or two just to get back into them. Oh well, It's all about the baby, right?

I did feel the baby move for the first time last Saturday, the 15th. I haven't felt it since, so now I'm doubting if it really was the baby I felt or not.


Here's my EXCITING news. Today, at 2:30 I have my ultrasound! Woohoo! That means we'll find out what we're having, and get to start picking names. I'm kind of hoping for a girl so wish me luck!

Rowdy bags!

I know I've posted about my FAV new diaper bags before, but I gotta do it again. I have permission to give out a special 10% discount code! Just type in "blog" at check out. How cool is that? You can all thank me later.... http://shop.rowdyproducts.com/main.sc

I do feel the need to brag a bit. One reason I am so in love with these bags is because my AMAZING Sis in law is the head designer. She's so talented!

So here's my next dilema, which one should I order. Here's my faves:

The Green Rocker

The Copper Rocker

and the Red Croc Bowler.
