Growing Bump

My very talented friend, Toni of Toni Larsen Photography took this series of photos for me, and it reminds me about just how amazing the pregnant body is. Perhaps its the overdose of hormones I'm expierencing from giving birth that is making me all sappy, but I really feel that growing a child from love and protecting it for 9 months in the womb is what the female body is made to do. And although I don't think we'll be having any more children anytime soon, I can see why some people want to have more. The whole expierence is pretty amazing. It's wierd. Now that Wyatt is out, I kind of miss feeling him inside me. That gentle nudge or kick to remind me that for 9 months I had two heartbeats inside me.

It's been my first day at home with Wyatt. Last night was spent frantically putting together the cot and going through boxes to find all the baby supplies (I told you we weren't really moved in yet, right?) It's a bit nostalgic pulling out items that had been packed away and forgotten from when Luca was a baby. Things like the Boppy, and the cute newborn onesies...it almost feels like xmas all over again.

But at the same time it's also a bit sad. Sad that I think this might be the last time we will ever have a newborn, and this time around I know just exactly how fast those days go by. So believe me, I'll be taking full advantage of every cuddle, every smile, and every baby moment of every day b/c we all know they don't stay babies forever.

If we had a endless supply of income, and maybe a nanny I think I'd want to have a few more kids. But for now, two is just perfect.
