Root Canal and Maternity/Pregnancy Photos

I had my root canal completed yesterday. It was not as bad as the last time during it but it is worse this time after. I am still in pain and was most of the night!

WARNING: You are about to see my bare baby belly bump. Leave NOW if you do not want to see this! ;oP

The maternity/pregnancy photos that I held the poll on are now upon you. My brother-in law Jon took them. These were taken almost two weeks ago. No one objected in the poll to my showing full blown bare belly. Most of you WANTED to see it. :o) While I do feel a little uncomfortable about having these on the Internet I realize that I could look worse - I could have stretch marks...I realize I will never be pregnant again and wish I had these done when pregnant with Jenna. Anyway, enjoy...


This giraffe is for baby.



Family, if you want to order any of these please let me know and I will send Jon the photo number and we'll get you all set. :o)

Let me know what you think. People in the area, if you like these, take a look at Jon's site. He is working on updating it and Little Miss will be featured there as well.

Thank you again, Jon! Can't wait to do pictures with both my girls!

I think you look amazing. Love the pictures of you and Jenna. I hope you start feeling better now that the root canal is done. The pictures are great and you should be proud to show them. Take care

Those are awesome! You are so lucky to have such a talented photographer! I haven't done any belly shots ... and I think I'm going to show my hubby these and see if he thinks we can do anything similar! You are beautiful - and I can't wait to see the pics of you with both your girls!

They're beautiful! I had them done with both my boys, and am SO glad!

I love the pic of you on the purple, although they're all beautifully done! Wow! How will you ever chose??! ~Nancy Hood

Love them! My faves are the first one of you and Jenna and the last one of you in white. What priceless pictures:)

Lisa said...

Oh, those photos are just gorgeous! You & your baby bump look beautiful, and Jenna is adorable as usual. These pictures will be such precious memories to cherish. How lucky you are to have a brother-in-law who is a photographer! After seeing how wonderful your pictures turned out, I vow to get professional photos taken with my next pregnancy because it will probably be my last! Thanks so much for sharing with us.

Wow! Jon did an awesome job! Aren't you glad you took pregnancy photos? I wasn't sure about it at first, but I am so thankful I did it. I don't know if I will do it this time around. My bedroom is full of belly pics from my first pregnancy!

ARe you going to get Jon to do a newborn session? I highly recommend it!

I keep telling him to finish updating his website. His old one doesn't do him justice!

Erica,
Thank you. My tooth STILL hurts but hopefully by tomorrow it will feel better.

imagoli,
Thank you. I can't wait to do pictures with both my baby girls.

Jenny,
Thanks. I'd love to see yours.

Nancy,
Thank you too. I like the purple one too. I have 300 something and it was hard narrowing it down to this many. I think I may have him make a collage of some of these.

Casey,
Thank you. We had some trouble with Jenna because she wasn't "the star" but the ones we did get of her are cute.

Lisa,
Thanks. I wish I had done them with Jenna now but back then Jon was just getting started and to be honest, the thought never occurred to me.

Leslie,
Thank you. Jon did do great. I am glad I did them. I do want to do a newborn session and probably have Jenna in some too. And I agree about Jon updating his site - I've seen what he has done so far with the new one and it is awesome.

I have to chime in -- those are absolutely fantastic! I'm so glad you shared. :)

I was considering getting some belly shots done, too, but I'm kind of shy of my bare belly. At least right now. We might just end up doing "expectant mommy & daddy" portraits for family around Christmas time. I should be looking more pregnant than pot-bellied by that time. ;)

Kelly, Those photos are all gorgeous! I love them all, but my favorites are the ones of you and Jenna-pie (esp. the one where she is standing) and the one of you on the purple cloth. Jon did an amazing, creative job on these photos (even though he had gorgeous gals for subject matter - all 3 of you!) He is truly an artist. I'd love to get prints. Momma Deb

DeltaSierra,
Thank you. If you do take some, I'd love to see them. Hope you are feeling well.

Momma Deb,
Thanks! Just email me which ones you'd like, how many, and what sizes you'd like and I'll get with Jon and let you know much much, etc. Please drop us an email sometime.

Kelly,

The belly pix are great! I did that with Grant in the belly and I treasure them. I'm sure you will too! Love-char
