finding beauty, confidence, and rest in motherhood
{Me & Baby at 30 weeks} Not to sound vain, but I love sporting the not-pregnant look from my backside. I’m not sure how much longer this will last, but for now I’m relishing in the slim and trim view from behind. Then, I spin around and POOF … BABY BUMP!
Baby’s Aunt Katie got creative with the camera this weekend. Nothing like a new angle of the bump that is changing our lives.
As promised, my mom and I had a min-photo shoot this past weekend to document the 30 week milestone. I feel like we’ve moved into a new decade! Can you believe there are only 10-ish weeks left until you get to see my baby’s smiling face?!?!? {photo credit} My amazing mother {outfit credit} Summer Tank […]
Here is top number two of the Moody Mama spoils … … and to all the pregnant mamas out there you MUST get the pants I am wearing. They are Jolt Jeggings from Nordstrom’s Anniversary Sale. They aren’t maternity (can be found in the BP Juniors section), but they have an elastic waist and are […]
The camera charger is lost, so this month we had to go with an iPhone snapshot … so much for symmetry in my whole month by month project. Oh well, part of being a mom I guess. Perfection is gone forever :)
Remember when I won the Moody Mama giveaway? The spoils have arrived! This is top number one. I added the skinny belt. Skinny belts are my new favorite thing. They make me feel like I still have a waist. Even though I don’t. Keep you eye out for top number two. It’s pink and plaid […]
We woke up this morning with grand plans to visit a u-pick blueberry farm. I wanted to get a batch to eat and a batch to freeze. So, I dressed in my sweetest blueberry outfit and off we went! Only to find out that our blueberry farm was “Closed for Ripening”. So, our trip has […]
Mom and I found a fabulous photo album of her pregnancy pictures as well as the journal she kept while expecting me. Trust, storage held some marvelous treasures such as this. Who would have thought I’d be blogging 24 years later about my pregnancy … you know, an online journal. I’m sure she would have […]
Baby has been kicking around for quite some time now. I think I felt the first flutters around 16 weeks. Now, baby has quite the legs and is kicking like crazy! In honor of the World Cup, Dominic felt our little one’s movement for the first time last week (at 24 weeks). Baby must have […]
This move has left me with 2 thoughts … Stuff is a bother. Opening boxes of “Misc.” is frustrating. Who needs “Misc.” in their life? On many occasions I was tempted to just move the whole box into the garage sale pile. But then I’d stop, “What if there was a treasure stuffed inside?” Alas, […]
