Sea cravings

I am now just over 18 weeks along and getting into the rhythm of being pregnant. After a few weeks of intense nausea and frequent vomiting, I am finally feeling better and – without a doubt – have got my appetite back :)
I haven’t had the stereotypical cravings of pickles & ice cream, but my sweet-tooth is lever-present in the food cravings department. Another thing I am craving is getting back in the water….the salt water.

I am craving the sea.

I was able to ride my mat up until several weeks ago, but now I just want to body surf and swim. I know the water is creeping into it’s wintertime temps and it will only get colder come January & February. But for now, the problem is my wetsuit won’t fit over my bump!

(“Bump” is what Rob and I are affectionately calling the baby since we aren’t finding out the gender until it’s born!)

Any ladies in North County know of someone (tall) who wore a wetsuit during pregnancy? I’d love to borrow one and satisfy my salty cravings.

One Frame: Baby Beau

Beau is 1 year old! His photos coming soon!

Baby Photography: Emma

Here is some cuteness to add to an already exciting week. This is the first shoot with my friend Reeda’s new baby girl, Emma. You’ll see her again in December for her 6 month shoot, but in the meantime, here she is at 3 months!

How cute is her nursery?!?! Seriously.

 

Emma recently discovered her right foot, and as you can see, she was all about grabbing her toes!

 

 

 

 

Remember what I said about elephants in babies’ nurseries? Here they are actually included in her theme

 

 

 

This one is my favorite

 

 

Baby Photography: Lincoln

I was so thrilled when my friend Michelle asked if I would shoot her new baby’s photos. Michelle and her husband Jon are both from San Diego and have always been beach goers and ocean dwellers. They now live in live in Del Mar, so we decided to include some quick shots by the coast. Aside from photos at home & in Lincoln’s nursery, we opted for a few quiet photos in the park by the water rather than fight the massive crowd on the beach.

How cute is Lincoln’s Nautical themed nursery?
Michelle’s sisters threw her an adorable shower and handcrafted a lot of the details for the day. Some of the decorations, like the bunting, are reused stylishly in the nursery.

I a firm believer that elephants in a baby’s surroundings are good luck.
(I almost can’t stand how cute they are!!!)
