After much forgetting, we finally remembered to snap a shot of my baby belly on the way to the ultrasound last Thursday. It's by no means my favorite photo, but I haven't seen so many of you for so long . . . nobody believes me when I say I feel like a whale . . . I thought you deserved a little extra proof. ; )
I don't remember what superhero he was supposed to be . . . I'm still just amazed at his dress-up combinations! (Maybe I should title it: 101 Ways to Wear Underwear on Your Head)
We celebrated the birthday of Our Blessed Mother on Tuesday. This dessert was . . . interesting but delicious. The blue pools of frosting weren't exactly my original intent.
Rebecca has boycotted her nap for 6 days in a row now. I even "gave in" & slept in Andrew's bed the other day in hopes that she would take a rest. Instead, I awoke from my 3rd trimester stupor to this train she made out of books at my feet. At least she was quiet!
Andrew took his first single professional photos ever at preschool this week. I've never been big into posed shots at a studio; I figure if I just take a bunch wherever we are, we'll eventually have some good ones. Well, he was fascinated by the photographer. He built this camera out of Tinkertoys, set up his studio, & photographed Rebecca with assorted stuffed animals. My favorite part is the blue cloth napkins for the backdrop.
Rebecca was rather amused by the whole ordeal as well & inspired to take some pictures herself . . . too bad the camera was backwards!
How fun! You look GREAT! Every time I see pictures of a pregnant woman--my friends, a stranger, me--I am always amazed at what our bodies can do. First, knowing that the skin on our tummies stretches out just as far as that T-shirt makes me itch and ache just a little for you! There's so much more to it but the miracle of life, and how we get there, amazes me to no end!
ReplyDeleteI LOVE the new little photographer in your house. How creative! :)
