Maternity leave.

As most of you know I am expecting baby #4 (our final addition) at the very end of December and have decided that once she arrives I will be taking an extended maternity leave to focus on my family most likely from December through April.  Following my maternity leave I will only be taking a couple of sessions a month through the end of 2010. 

What this means for clients hoping to book a session in 2010?  Contact me as soon as possible to find out availability.  Sessions will be booked on a first come, first serve basis. 

Six!

I think six is going to be my favorite age yet :)  I am so blessed.

38 weeks 2 days.

And, yes, I'm fully aware that I am getting WAY BIGGER!  :)  In fact, as of today's appointment I have officially gained the most with this pregnancy and am truly starting to despise the clinic's scale! :)  Thank goodness she's going to be here soon.  We are all ready to meet this little girl!

Had to cheat and flip this one in photo-shop because our Christmas tree is on the wall I had been using for these.  Wouldn't be able to tell except for my freckles and my belly button are different on this side.  Oh, and the jeans and missing ring... oh, well.

And the rest of the series...

34 weeks 1 day.

27 weeks 4 days.

20 weeks 6 days.

Birthday boy... almost.

Noah turns 6 years old on Tuesday and I have to say, I think I"m okay with it.  We'll see what his actual birthday post says, but for now I'm good :) 

Here are some pictures from Noah's Bakugan themed party today :)

Ella and Nora.

I meant for my baby bump to show more but  I have to take what I can get :)

Zoe the cat.

I have been meaning to post this picture since Friday when Nate discovered that our cat, who we got as a kitten when I was pregnant with Noah, had passed away in her sleep :(  Our kids and I cried (alot) at the news as they were finally getting to the age where she could come and lay by them without being malled (with the exception of Aidan!)  So not only did we get to carve pumpkins, go to a party and trick or treating on Halloween, but we also had to bury our very loved cat and give her a mini-funeral for the kids who wanted nothing more than to buy flowers to put on her new grave.  Here's an oldie of her from a couple of years ago that has always been a favorite of mine.
