26 Weeks


I am posting some belly shots after a request I received from my mom:) It is amazing how on the second pregnancy it is hard to find the time to take pictures of the belly, poor second child. But thanks to my sister who insisted we just take one, we got one picture. This is not my most glamorous moment. But it gives you an idea of my day...out in the sunshine, getting messy, eating yogurt on a stick, make believing boxes are rocket ships, shooting some hoops and practicing our baseball and golf swing.
