36 Weeks

My friend Lindsey is kind enough to always be thinking about me. She's a photographer, and kept telling me I'd regret not taking any maternity pictures... I thought about it for months. I seem to avoid the camera at all costs at the end of my pregnancies, because I mean who wants to remember themselves big and swollen? :) Well, after realizing I only took about 4 maternity pictures with Pres and wishing I had more, I decided to take her up on her offer. I'm really happy I did. She found a fun little place to take them and I had fun just hanging out with her. Thanks again Lindsey!

    I didn't take any pictures with either of my girls because I felt so big and fat and didn't think I'd want to remember that. I haven't been able to have any more children and wish I had taken the pictures when I had the chance. If I ever am blessed with more children, however, a maternity shoot is definitely something I'm going to do!! Your pictures are becautiful.

    yes, we women can be pregnant and sexy. off the subject but i am slow to email you..the best perspective i have ever heard on dealing with the death of your child and in the case of this man, multiple children is an interview on the Mormon Channel "Conversations" program with Gary Ceran. You can access it from lds.org
