A couple of weeks ago on our way home from the post office we decided to keep driving instead of turning on our road to go home. The day was beautiful, Violet was with us, so we just cruised. One of our favorite things to do. Although these days I can only go so far before my bladder explodes, so our drives are cut pretty short. We rediscovered a little place you can pull over and look out over the country and it was full of lantanas, so we had to take pup pictures in them!!! Just a beautiful little moment of our day I wanted to document...
SAYING HELLO TO THE THIRD TRIMESTER
It's hard to believe I'm already a couple of weeks into my 3rd trimester. Time is going by so quickly. I'm realizing just how soon my little babe will be here in the world with us, and I already want to put the breaks on just a bit. I have enjoyed being pregnant so so much, with the exception of the irritations that have come along with it, like sciatica, de quervains tendinosis, raw tongue, migraines (although I've almost cured those), and a few (hundred) extra grey hairs. My body decided to get all the weird ones... Now I'm starting to feel the fatigue (but were also in a retrograde phase that just started), and restless sleep. But even with all of these things going on, I'm loving the process of pregnancy. It's been such a surreal, magical experience for me. After fearing it for years and years it's been such a wonderful thing to feel this way through it. I think my body must of just known I was finally ready for this. I hope I will be able to say the same thing about labor...
I have not taken portraits of myself throughout my pregnancy like I would have liked. But now that I'm realizing how close the end is and that this part will be all over with soon, I really want to try to capture at least one a week. I think Ava will look back fondly at these. I think I need to make a physical scrapbook for her of this incubation period. This was from last week, my 29th week. (I'm 30 weeks today).
