"Great Expectations"

I had the pleasure of meeting Kristina and her fiance, Jared, today to take their photos. Kristina met me at Baby Expo a couple of weeks back where I had a booth advertising my photography, and she thought it would be a lot of fun to get her maternity pictures taken. She contacted me last week to set up an appointment...since she's due next week, we decided that the sooner, the better, to get these pictures taken.
Kristina was absolutely lovely, and had great energy and creativity with her outfits (of which she had quite a large bag full of tops, skirts, pants, and various jewelry)
We had a TON of fun- and her hubby-to-be was a real good sport!

38 weeks, and nursery pics

Here is what our nursery look like so far- I have a couple of pictures to put up yet that my sister, Mandy, gave to me of animals that they've seen at various zoos around the US. I kinda went for the jungle/safari/wild animal theme. I LOVE sitting in the rocking chair and just hanging out in here!





I am feeling it more and more each day how difficult pregnancy can be on a body. It's all I can do to try to get out and keep walking, but I have managed to keep it up about every other day I walk for 2 miles- lately I've been going to Mayfair mall because of all the snow here in Milwaukee :)
I also would like to thank my very good friends that live here in Milwaukee who came out to my house on Saturday to do a DEEP cleaning- my house looks BEAUTIFUL- it was a wonderful gift, so again, THANKS A TON!!
Here I am at 38 weeks, 2 days:
