More pictures....

Okay I'm not going to share all of my maternity pictures because, well, I really only did them for me. I have this amazing photographer friend, Ashley. She has done some great work for me in the past and when I asked her about doing maternity pictures, she was quick to jump on it! She's the sweetest girl I know! I had so much fun doing this shoot and she captured some wonderful shots! I thought I would post a few more of the sneak peek she has given me so far. I'm starting with my very favorite picture.

Now before I post my very favorite picture, I should probably explain a little bit about why this picture was so important to me. The picture I'm going to post as my very favorite is one of me & Riley, my dog. I have had this dog for almost 7 years. He's always there and loves me even when I'm at my most unlovable.  He's the most wonderful dog on the face of the planet. I love him with my whole heart and even though he has 4 legs instead of two, I consider him to be one of my children. He's very mellow and laid back and is always sweet to pretty much everyone. He's the most perfect dog. This picture meant the world to me to get. I love everything about it. I hope you enjoy a few more of my maternity pictures and I hope you like the one of Riley & me as much as I do.

Maternity Sneak Peek!

So yesterday marked 35 weeks for me. I decided I should probably go ahead and get some maternity photos taken since I don't plan on ever doing this again! I had a sweet photographer friend do a session with me and the dogs for the maternity pictures. I have only seen a few of them and decided I'd post the ones I got to show some of my friends and family. I hope you all enjoy them. If you need a photographer, my sweet friend Ashley is amazing!

Twins....

No I'm not having twins! I've been asked this by several people the last few days and well, the next person to ask me that is getting a punch in the face. Seriously, people don't think before they speak and sometimes the words that come out are hurtful. I've been asked several times the last few days if I'm having twins. It's been a little hurtful to me. I feel enormous even though I'm not as big as what I probably could be. I know people that gained over 50 lbs when they were pregnanat and I've only gained around 20. It's frustrating to me. What makes people think that they can just say what they want to? I mean, us pregnant women, we wear our feelings & heart right out there on our sleeve. So I guess what I'm getting at is....if you don't know if it's twins or not and you think you can ask if it's twins.....smack yourself. Don't ever ask a pregnant woman how many babies she's carrying. Simply ask if it 's a boy or girl. If that woman answers "boy" take that to mean it's only ONE! Asking if she's sure it's only one baby only hurts her feelings. It's not like we have a beach ready body when we are at 33 weeks pregnant. And we definitely don't need to be reminded of that. Sorry, I've been frustrated today about stupid people who I so wish were mutes.

Now I'm going to share a picture of the baby bump at 33 weeks because well, my brother and sister in law moved all the way to Illinois and I thought they would want to see. So here's me & the baby boy in my belly. He doesn't have much longer! Soon we'll be posting pictures of him on here!!!
