belly shots




 after getting the exciting news from my doctor that the baby could come at anytime now, i thought i should take some pictures of my belly before bed one night in the mirror - just in case it was the last night i would be carrying around this bowling ball physique of mine.  alas the baby did not come that night, nor over the weekend while michael was here (i was really hoping he would and walked around more and did more for two days in a row than i have since being put on bed rest).  after spending most of sunday day recuperating from my failed attempts at putting myself into labor, we took the time to take some photos of baby in belly with what we think will be his name just like we did before ezra was born.  the name is 'indy' and it has been the most often referred to name - especially by big brother ezra.  he added the middle name max and always refers to the baby as indy max.  we like it, but still have a few other names just in case he comes out and doesn't look like an indy max.  whatever his name will be, i do hope he comes very very soon!  i don't think it shows in these pictures how big my belly really feels.  i am ready to hold him on the outside in my arms!

  4. Oh awesome! Good idea sweetie, the photos are great. You are so funny, sorry your labor bringing attempts didnt work. Just a thought, maybe you should wish for indy to stay in, then he'll come! You know kids, often doing the opposite of what you want.
    I didn't want my pregnacys to end, and all my babies came early!
    You are gorgeous!
