So here’s something I rarely share on our blog… photos of myself! But I wanted to share a few photos that Liz took of me and my husband, Mike, and our little guy on the way. I’m in “week 40” of my pregnancy right now… so any day now! I’ll be sure to let everyone know when he does decide to arrive!

I wanted to do something a little different for my Maternity shots, versus the “in home” photos that I do a lot with clients, so we ventured with Liz around Tower Grove park. And I personally love outdoor photos, but I will say it was a tad bit difficult changing in the car when you are 39 weeks pregnant! BUT – it IS possible – even with super swollen feet and legs like mine ; ) So, to my future maternity clients, beware, now that I’ve gone through it I may ask more out of you. (kidding. sort-of). And I will say I’m glad I had my new Toyota RAV4 to change clothes in – instead of my tiny Toyota Celica that I use to drive around. Changing would NOT have happened in that Celica : )
(although I miss that little car)

So … on with the photos of my ENORMOUS belly. Thank You (again and again) Liz for the photos!

And you’ll be seeing my new little boy out here pretty soon! : )

seriously, am I holding a basketball under that dress!?

notice how my toes won’t bend on either foot… SO swollen…

this one I’m framing for his room : )
