Camping with the Pregnant Momma!


I am going to start off by saying these are not the greatest shots of me, but I am doing this so you all can see how big (I think anyway) the belly looks since the last pictures (the ones of me in the geometric dress, taken just Thursday, where as these were taken on Saturday!) So please bear with me and realize that I had just been camping in the wilderness all weekend :)

We decided we needed a little break from everyday life this weekend and went up to the mountains for some relaxing and camping. It was really fun, just the two of us and the dogs. We ate lots of smores, went on a hike with the dogs, relaxed and looked at some baby names. We have both been feeling restless lately as it rained all last weekend and work has been really busy the last few weeks, so it was nice to get away. Camping is so easy here, we only had to drive an hour and this is what we found! We did decide though after this trip, we are going to need a mid-size tent to house me and the belly with Bj and the two dogs comfortably! We looked so funny in our little two person tent, the air mattress the size of the tent and the two dogs...we were nice and cozy and warm though!

We even had a little rainstorm with some thunder, which we always enjoy! It was just the perfect amount of rain, it only required running under the tent, and the fire managed to weather it very nicely!
Overall it was a very nice weekend and we were glad we were able to get away for an impromptu, cheap weekend!
