the last few weeks…

… that i shared my tummy with little man. oh they were rough. i had been on bedrest since week 25, i was huge and uncomfortable. i wanted so badly to enjoy the soft kicks from within, and to savor the last moments where he was snuggled inside of me. shalina had to drag me out for my final maternity photos (yes i had them done all three trimesters), and now, a year later i am so glad she did.

i can hardly believe that inside that giant belly was this little one. who would enter the world smack on his mama’s birthday. he is a gift, and i am simply not ready to accept that he’s nearly one. so now, i give you a few shots from that last session. 30+ weeks pregnant, me.
