This might look like any other family session, but I have a SURPRISE to announce!
We’re pregnant with #3!
I’m so excited to share this news with all of you, dear readers. I’m 12 weeks today, and even though this means I’ll be giving up my much-coveted dream closet / office, I couldn’t be any happier with how things turned out. Back then, when I was pregnant with LWG, I was truly worried if I could ever love #2 as much as Roman. I quickly found out that I could – and I did – and now I’m feeling a bit like a veteran when it comes to the idea of a #3 joining our family. I cannot wait to love on this precious new member!
Roman is a super big brother to LWG, and he’s already showing his loving spirit to this teeny peanut inside me. I like to ask him where #3 is and he always replies, “In Momma’s belly. Baby #3 is sleeping in Momma’s belly!” Then he’ll press his little face to my belly, and say, “When are you coming out to play, #3??”
Thanks to fellow photographer Katherine Davis of DeepEnd Imagery for shooting our sweet family session at Alfred Lily Pond. Roman was obsessed with the ducks and Rhys, well, in typical LWG fashion, he just wanted to explore everything and everywhere! We can’t wait to see what #3 will be like.
p.s. Scroll all the way through to find out whether we’ll be decking out our new nursery in pink or blue!
