I’m trying, not so successfully, to enjoy the last few days of my pregnancy. I have a mantra that I repeat in my head: “I am thankful that I have a loving family and a healthy child.” But in between the utterings of that sentence I am saying “f*#&-ing heartburn!” and “damn this lumpy pillow!” and other such niceties.
I can’t sleep. I can’t eat without getting heartburn or nausea. Nights and mornings are miserable. With my dad’s help I managed to enjoy yesterday and even host a wonderful playdate with my support group of mommy friends. One of them is an amazing photographer and she grabbed these shots that I have been planning to get for some time:
Today’s plan: go to the mall and walk around. Hope gravity has some effect on my situation. Tomorrow morning is my OB appointment, in which I will beg with puppy eyes for an induction.


Love the pics! Good luck.
These pics are awesome! I especially love that Kyle has a dirty little boy face. it’s so typical boy of him! He’s too cute, all lovin’ his baby brother. And it’s really remarkable how much he looks like Stew… except his eyebrows of course. Pure Tracy, those are.
I had a dream last night that your water broke. I love induction! I think it’s a fantastic idea. And if you put on the puppy eyes (and maybe a few tears), there’s no way you’ll be refused! Also helping you is the fact that he’s R-E-A-D-Y to come out.
I’m tapping my foot with loving impatience and excitement! Yay!
Those pics are all great. I especially like the last one where Kyle’s got his head and hand on your belly. SO. CUTE.
These are great pictures. I like the jelly on the face…
Great pics… keep checking in … no baby yet… soon…. (good luck, may you have an easy delivery if there is such a thing!)
still on stalker status. lol! I too am trying to patiently wait for great news.
GREAT photos! Jen does awesome work.
