Expecting
As the months passed, the Brooks family was finally able to confirm the happy news: Marisa was pregnant! Even though Marisa was a little worried about how this would affect her career, she was happy to be having another baby. Blake couldn’t wait for the birth of his second child, and he was secretly hoping that it would be a boy to carry on the family name. Marisa vowed to enjoy this pregnancy and this time in her life. She soon took up the serene practice of meditation, which helped soothe her nerves tremendously about her hopeful career change and the upcoming labor.

“Oooohhhmmmm….I am a tree….ooohhhhmmmm”
With this new pregnancy and the new freedom she found in meditation, Marisa decided that it was time for a new look. She was tired of looking the same on the outside when everything on the inside was completely different. So, she went to the beauty parlor and got a fabulous new haircut! Not only was it adorable, it was much easier to manage than her long locks from before. She couldn’t stop checking out her reflection in the bathroom mirror every chance she got. She was definitely a new woman.

“It’ll be much easier to be a tree with this haircut.”
Camie was probably the most excited about the new baby out of the whole Brooks’ family. She had always wanted a baby brother or sister. She didn’t quite understand how the baby got to be inside her mommy’s belly, but she couldn’t wait for it to come out.

“Does this have anything to do with all those fireworks I’ve been hearing?”

Eeee! Awesome story as always, and the repair woman stuck in door shot makes me giggle madly.
I vote for Cynthia, Claudia, Claire or Clementine!

Is it a “C” theme? I like Claudia and Claire, too… or Caitlin or Chrystelle (which is French, like Camille!).

Ooo, great suggestions once again! So far I have narrowed down the name for this baby to: *drumroll*
Daphne (from Jen)
Claudia (from Kay)
Chrystelle (from Annette)
I’m going to try to figure out how to make a poll for this decision…(I have some time before the next update b/c I am working on the next “Running From a Forgotten Past” update for my next post). All of the afore mentioned names will not be forgotten however! I will continue to refer to them for future babies, and you’ll probably see them in even more polls! Thanks for the input guys, it makes the game so much more fun for me!

Haha, so cute. As usual I love the commentary and I also love that Cammie is such a nerd.
I wonder what she’ll be when she grows up.
