On December 31, 2012, when I kissed my hubby at the stroke of midnight, I had no idea what would be in store for 2013. Although 2013 is only a few short months in, this year has already proved to be one of the most uncertain, and exciting years of my life. I have been MIA on the blog for quite some time because in January we found out…..
WE’RE PREGNANT!
Although I don’t normally post many personal events of my blog, I wanted you to know why I have been absent on the blog for a while. I have been working (check out my last wedding a few weeks ago with my fabulous business-partner-to-be Rebecca Cerasani here), but blogging got put on the back burner when first trimester sickness hit. For about 7 weeks I felt completely debilitated and honestly wondered why all of my new mother friends didn’t tell me just how bad it could be. I spent many, many nights in the recliner like this…..
praying and praying it would be over soon. I was counting down the days until first trimester ended like a child counts down to Christmas with an advent calendar. Only I scribbled bloody red X’s on each day to dramatize to the hubs exactly how I felt. (Then again, looking back at the self portrait iPhone photo I took during that time, I obviously looked as awful as I felt!)
But just like all the books say, around 13 weeks I began feeling better and better each day. Today I am happy to say that I am 18 weeks pregnant and feeling 100%. So watch out world, this girl is getting back to work! And because I cannot end this post without a better picture of myself than the first trimester sick days, here are a few of my progress:
Baby Wolfe: 6 weeks
Baby Wolfe: 12 weeks
Baby Wolfe on Easter: 16 weeks
I probably won’t blog many more personal photos of baby Wolfe on the way. If you want to see more of that, check me out on facebook.
Life is precious and the moments are gone before you know it. Dream BIG! Go after your dreams! You will never regret trying, but you will regret if you don't try. For heavens sake, don't let another day go by without documenting your moments. This moment IS your life!
The day I picked up my camera and began shooting I knew I could never turn back. For the first time I truly felt creative, passionate, and ALIVE. To document and be a part of the most important, intimate moments of someones life feels incredible! I can only hope that God's plan for me continues down this road. ~Vivian Leigh
