THE BUMP OVER TIME

Now that Soren is nearly 2 months, I've been feeling a little nostalgic about being pregnant with him and love that I documented most of my pregnancy in photos. It's crazy looking back and thinking about how fast the pregnancy went by. I've really enjoyed not being pregnant anymore and actually having him to snuggle with! ;) Being pregnant with him was such a special experience and I'm so thankful for everything I learned. -- This might sound a little cliche, but I am AMAZED at how a woman's body can grow life and give birth. It truly is incredible.

I'm loving this season of being on the other side of pregnancy and learning how to be a mommy. If you would have asked me after giving birth if I wanted more children I probably would have laughed hysterically in your face. Now that time has passed and some of that pregnancy/labor "amnesia" has set in, I'm very much looking forward to continuing to grow our family in the future. But right now, Jon and I will just focus on this first year with little Soren and go from there. ;)

WEAR: THE ONLY THING I'M WEARING

At this point in the pregnancy I've resorted to mainly PJs, and since I DO still have outings planned and errands to run, I decided to pick out one outfit and just wear it over and over again. :) It's taken the get creative with what you're wearing pressure off my day and I can just plan to look cool in the same outfit. ;) It's been a pretty good plan so far! And since it can be dressed up or down depending on my shoes or jewelry, I'm considering this idea pretty flawless and successful. :)

Since I want to make sure to record the last part of my pregnancy I'm hoping to pull something different together and take some maternity photos with Jon within the next week or so. We are 3.5 weeks away from the big due date, people! -- Also about this weather...so thankful this babe is keeping me warm! It's been incredibly cold in Georgia.

You *might* see another outfit post from me before baby comes, but I'm not making any promises. ;)

WEAR: WHEN ALL ELSE FAILS, IPHONE

 

If your camera battery runs out, the next best thing to use is an iPhone. ;) Jenny and I ended up doing a iPhone styled photo-shoot for our outfits this week. Lesson learned. Always charge your camera battery or bring a spare!

WEAR: FALL IS IN FULL SWING

It's been chilly in Georgia!! We've had a couple of freezing cold nights lately and thankfully my husband and father-in-law fixed our heater so we didn't freeze during the night. ;) I love the cold weather. I love hot cocoa, giant sweaters, the smell of bonfires, the community, the food...I especially love that Jon and I have to snuggle at night to keep warm. ;)

I ventured away from black for a little while after graduating from college, but for the past couple of months I've been loving it again and wearing it all the time. I especially love how it looks with my hair coloring. It's also a nice slimming color for my ever-growing body. ;) I'm loving this bump, though! I'll be 29 weeks on Monday so I'm counting this week as my official start into the third trimester. The second trimester went by SO fast, so I know that these next couple of months will fly by, which is good because we can't wait to meet Soren. :)

WEAR: MY FALL COLORS

These are quickly becoming my favorite colors to wear during the fall. Jenny and I found a wonderfully fall-ish area around where she lives and were seriously giddy over the Christmas feel and coloring of the photos. We are totally geeky about Christmas.

I'm rocking a nearly 7 month bump! Is it just me or is this pregnancy FLYING by?! I love it and love feeling little Soren grow. He's going to be born into a family with so much love. Can't wait to meet him!

Also, say hello to my new maternity jeans! I finally caved in, retired my poor stretched out jeans and belly band with a cozy, comfy pair of maternity jeans. As well, Target has so many great sweater options out right now. I picked up three different ones and they all fit my tummy perfectly. I've be living in them for the rest of the year. :)
