Give 'Em What They Want

I've had several requests for more belly photos in the past few weeks, and while I never feel like stepping in front of a camera right now, I totally did it yesterday.  We were going to go outside and do a cute little photo shoot (it's all snowy!), but once I stepped into my warm home, I decided I couldn't brave the weather again.  After all, I did fall once on the ice yesterday, and  I was not desiring to have it happen again.


If I look huge... well, that's because I am.  My doctor says my belly is measuring a month (whoa!) larger than I actually am, which means I look like I'm full term, but I get another month of not being able to button my coat!  Actually, I'm really thankful for these next few weeks-- I have Christmas orders to finish up and a baby room to get ready.  Yep, you read that right... I haven't even started.  Lucky for me, babies don't need private spaces and beautiful rooms when they get here.  Just a toasty place to stay and lots of love.

I'll be posting a holiday DIY later this week.  For now... happy Monday!  xoxo Katie

    So adorable! I'm pretty sure I lived most of my pregnancy in sweatpants and a giant old maternity dress, I'm amazed you've managed to look so cute. Almost makes me want to give it another go. Almost.

    That dress is so cute on you! Good thing you're tiny to begin with - you can just move up a few sizes to fit that big baby. I'm measuring big too - but I was with Luke so that's no surprise. You looks so pretty - I'm excited for you. Enjoy this last month! love jill

    you look so so cute with your little belly bump!! :) did they move your due date any since you're measuring larger?? i bet that means that you're not going to have a big baby, but that she's going to visit early :) maybe??? haha...

    i love what you wear!!

    xo,

    You look gorgeous!! All the decorations behind are lovely too. :) At least you can use the excuse of not buttoning your coat to send others on errands for you, right? ;)

    you look wonderful! love those shoes... if only they were not made of leather. ho hum.

    and you are right about the whole nursery not being ready thing. we didn't have anything ready when my son malcolm was born (he was 2 weeks early). we actually didn't even have any diapers or crib bedding. but we made do and figured it out along the way. you will too, and you'll be fine :)

    Have you ever watched the movie Away We Go with John Krasinski and Maya Rudolph? It's really cute. This post reminded me of it because Maya Rudolph's character is trying to travel in an airplane, but they won't let her board because she looks over 8 months pregnant even though she's only six! You should check it out :)
