* This is my Disclaimer*
These pictures are somewhat "Skin Bearing" I am in no way the 'model pregnant woman' so if you aren't comfortable with some skin, or with some otherwise 'largeness'- You should not view this post.
On the Other hand. I am so blessed and grateful to have such amazing and patient photographers in my family. Alison has been so wonderful to 'try' things with me to get photos to capture these beautiful moments in time.
I'm so grateful to be able to look back and remember the joyful and strange and happy and frustrating set of mixed emotions that comes with being pregnant for the first time and trying to learn to love what your body is going through. It is the most worthy cause I can imagine to be hormonal, overweight, tired, sick or any of the other less desirable traits that go with pregnancy.
However. I do sincerely love and appreciate that I have the opportuinty to be in this situation. It is difficult for me to imagine the lives and struggles of women who struggle with pregnancy, infertility, miscarriages and the like. My heart truly breaks for them and would not think for a second to complain about my circumstances of discomfort or weight gain- especially considering that they would give about anything to be able to be in this situation.
I love this little boy more than words can say. I feel like I already know him and that he's just on a long journey and in 13 short days (considering his "flight" isn't delayed) He gets to come home to his daddy and me. It makes my heart so full.
