A Year of Motherhood in Pictures: The First Nine Months

May 7, 2010 /

Mother’s Day is this weekend.  It’s my first one and I can’t hardly believe it.  It seems like only yesterday that Chris and I found out we were pregnant.  This past year has been the most incredible, surprising, terrifying, gratifying year of my life.  Who would have thought that one little pregnancy test could turn my world so completely upside down?

My first belly picture
I had to start eating healthy for Bean Man.
And then my feet swelled into Hobbit feet.
And I slept a lot. Carrying around all that weight takes a lot out of you!
And then I nested like an insane beached whale.
And then I took another picture of my Hobbit feet.
I got some baby loot at a few showers and then Chris and I got into a fight about when to set up the nursery. I won.
And then Chris put together a high chair.
And then a swing.
And then Chris bought me flowers on Mother's Day and cooked me chocolate chip pancakes for breakfast.
We bought a stroller and the dogs became suspicious.
And then I had painful IV's for the even more painful ECV when they tried to get Bean to turn head-down. No luck.
And then my family came to stay for the c-section and birth.
And then he was here.

Today I am doing another blogging blitz in honor of my first Mother’s Day.  Check back for pictures of the first year of Bean’s life and my first year of being a mom.
