hello.
so i've been pretty behind on my maternity series posts. so sorry for those of you who are following the little birds growth. i've been posting about a week behind because i am just that kind of person who seems to always be running late. then to top it all off, last week i was so busy that i didn't post the photo's for the week before, week 15, and so now here i am in week 17 and... deep breathe... i now have three weeks of baby bird to share with you, so i apologize for the delay. enjoy.
BABY BIRD: 15 WEEKS.momma'a wearing: vintage grateful dead tee that belonged to my mom in high school. vintage chevron stripe skirt. (click on images to enlarge for detail.)
here i am at 15 weeks. feeling like a whole new person, really. this 2nd trimester burst of energy is a godsend. i feel great and am really loving being pregnant this time around. to be honest, i didn't really like being pregnant before. in fact i kinda hated it. i was so uncomfortable and was embarrassed by my excessive weight gain. i was of course expecting the same feelings towards this pregnancy, but i am pleased to be wrong. i made a little pact with myself that i would really do my best to enjoy this time and embrace my new baby body. i think that it also has to do with the fact that i am older now and can appreciate the more important things.
i am a huge music fan. i listen to music most of the day and have always exposed my little ones to good music. i don't really do the children's music, sorry wiggles, but you're no good. my absolute very favorite artist or all time is john lennon and my kids love him too. i spin vinyl most days, we also listen to a lot of the beatles, dylan, elliot smith, and many other great singer/songwriters. the baby bird loves it too, i just know it.
BABY BIRD: WEEK 16.momma's wearing: vintage 1950's plaid dress. vintage mary janes. yellow plastic children's barrette.

my sixteen weeks photo shoot was so far, my favorite because we just found out it was a baby girl. so exciting!!! i immediately made a shopping trip the next day for her little self. i bought her this ultra soft onsie by kicky pants. if you are expecting or already have a little one, you should grab some kicky pants, seriously the softest little thing i've ever touched. i've been on cloud nine all week. i am so excited and now i can really start planning for the baby bird.
