Weekly Photos {31 weeks}

It's been a super long time since I've posted.  Mainly because I don't care about blogging.  I do, however, enjoy going back over the past couple of years to read my blog posts and see what I was thinking and doing "this time last year".  

I have a terrible memory.  One thing that helps me remember "specifics" are photographs.  I can look back at a picture from 2 years ago and remember that specific day's details that otherwise, I would have completely forgotten.  For that reason, I take a lot of pictures.  I upload them to my shutterfly account at the end of every month and order the one's that I want to print, and the rest get stored away on a CD so that years from now I can look back and really remember.  

That's why I've decided to take more pregnancy photos.  It feels a little silly taking a bunch of weekly photo's, but I know that one day I will want to look back and remember every detail of my pregnancies.  I'm not a fortune teller, but there is a good chance that this, our 3rd pregnancy, will be our last.  I think I'm okay with that.  After I gave birth to Ingrid I went through such a mourning period of no longer being pregnant.  Every time I saw a pregnant woman jealousy would swell.  I think that's because I wasn't done yet.  I'm not sure how I will feel after this little girl is born.  My hope is that I will be able to feel contentment in the time that I was able to carry her.  

I decided since this could very well be my last-I am going to photograph it more.  I don't want to regret not having enough photos of this pregnancy to look back on.

GlassLion

Just wanted to share a link to something I'm loving right now...

GlassLion is a shop on etsy and I've purchased several of her screen prints lately, some of which are the vintage claw foot bathtub, carrots, onion, lighthouse, and vintage camera prints.  Can't wait to hang these in our new house! 

Take a look around!

March begins

Pretty much the only thing anyone talks about around here is the weather-and for good reason, high's in the 70's in mid March is unprecedented!  It feels so normal and natural to get outside without jackets and scarves-only to realize-it is not normal given the time of year.  You won't hear us complain one bit, a true lover of winter -yes- but this girl (and her girl) are going stir crazy-with an extra emphasis on the word "crazy".  Bring on the warmth!  

We've been enjoying Popsicle's, walks, parks, and shorts!  Doesn't get any better!

 {I am usually the one doing the "picture-taking", so it's rare that I get any decent photo's with my girl-these are some of my favorite to date!}

MOA

This is the last time we took Ingrid to the Mall of America...

Last week we took her back to enjoy some time with my sister and her boyfriend.  It was a blast!  Ingrid did a great job walking in the crowds, she held on to our hand the whole time, and when she got tired she contently sat in her stroller (a rarity).  

A few pictures...
