obligatory baby bump photo

pregnant with jonathan, 30 weeks along

every pregnancy, i tell myself that i am going to take a picture each week of my pregnancy so that i can look back and see how my belly grew over the months. and every pregnancy, i get one or two photos of myself showcasing my stomach.

because, when it comes down to it, i don't want to be in front of the camera when i am pregnant. or really, in general. but certainly not right now.

but for posterity's sake, and for my mother-in-law, who hasn't seen me since thanksgiving, when i was much smaller, here is one of the two pictures i will take this pregnancy.
