Waiting for Julian.

Our family is 36 weeks pregnant with baby number two! Our second son will be here in approximately 4 weeks! As I spend my days focused on Nautas, feeling large and tired the days really fly by and he'll be here in no time! A recent saving grace (to my feeling large and blah) has been that the fabulous (yet currently busy and slightly retired) Katie Elmer was able to come shoot some maternity pics for us and leave for me to edit! So so great! I am actually not even done (Nautas has a hard time letting me have any time away from him STILL.) but I really love them so I want to post what I have so far.

This time around I wanted the photos simply lifestyle photos and of how we spend our time, lounging, swimming, in the backyard playing and such. Nautas was on him worst behavior this day so he is not in as many pictures as he should have been and many of them were of him whining and crying. little pill.

There is nothing like having beautiful pictures taken when you are feeling large and at your worst to remind you of the beauty that is pregnancy.  Hope you like them as much as I do!  And brace yourself.... some are swimsuit pictures. Fat girl in a little swimsuit. LOL

Love my boy

I truly wish I could find time each and everyday to take pictures of ourselves but I guess I do pretty good as I have a billion photos of my boy and occasionally I guess star in them. These I took last week and love how they came out. The light was just right in the bedroom and he was in just the right mood! :) I'd like to find him in that mood sometime soon so around the golden hour and we can get out to the park and get our pose on. ;)

this was a great game of peek-a-boo.

Apple Hill 2012

We took a early trip to Apple Hill to scout out Mia's birthday party location and made a fun day of it. Nautas and Mia had a blast running around the Apple Orchard at High Hill before we packed it up to come home. 

  Okay what we have here is a 'can I get away with it' type of photoshop fix. I took the sunspot off of his head but have looked at it for too long since then. Still not sure if I can get away with it. what do you think?

 Running with Mia

 He watches Mia very, very closely.

 These cutie pies LOVED the blanket, once it went down they didn't want to leave it.

 More running....we couldnt get enough of the cuteness.

 dirty as a boy should be.
