Seven months


"That's seven months. Uh-oh, hello, five months! Five months, not much." Sorry, please excuse my inability to resist Martin Short quotes.

My talented friend Alisha offered to take pictures of me while great with child. I don't have very many pictures of myself while pregnant--most notably I do have a few frightening shots of when I was in labor with Theo and my belly was so large and box-shaped that the nurse said, "Wow, you have to take a picture of that." These, though, are treasures. Thank you, Alisha!










Now Katie can make her guess whether it's a boy or girl. It's pretty much a tie at our house--the boys think girl and the girls think boy. Sometimes I think girl too, though. I can't decide. I guess we'll find out soon enough!

I also like that I have a record of the maternity shirt that I wear almost every single day.

Katie said...

These pictures are great! Your friend is very talented. My heart got so happy when I saw these, I just want to fly out there and give you a hug. So cute!

Okay, now on to my scientific predictions. I really think girl. Just for reference I thought Ida was a boy. And I think everyone you met told you that you would have a boy with Theo so there wasn't much guessing there.

Well, all I know is you are one cute pregnant lady. I am so hideous when pregnant, and there is not an ounce of that going on in these pics!
And, your kids are so stinkin' cute.

So cute I just want to hug all of you. Eliza is the cutest pregnant lady ever and those children are the most adorable in the world.
Love, Grandma

You were a great model to work with and for the record, you are all photogenic.

Thanks for letting me practice.

Those kids sure look suspicious in the first photo. I wonder what they're whispering to each other and the baby.

So so cute! Alisha is an amazing photographer, and she had great subjects to work with! I always feel lame and self-conscious taking preg shots of myself but I always wanted to have some and then feel bad afterwards that I didnt get any. I don't know why I feel strange seeking them out.

I'm probably the 1,000th person to say how good you look pregnant. I'm going to guess boy, but either way he/she will be so cute just like their big brother and sister.

You look so great! I love the pictures. Those will be fun to have always.

Karen said...

Such a very cute 7 months pregnant lady!
Great pictures of you and your little ones. You will love having these in the future.
It made me laugh to read your comment about wearing the shirt almost every day. I always seemed to have a favorite too.

I'd say I wish I looked like you when I was pregnant but that would make me be 13 again. So, you look great! And you and your kids always look cute. How do you do that?!

Dave and Mel said...

ELiza--you are beautiful!! These are such great photos of the three of you and something I wish I had done. I would say, "Dave, take my picture" and he'd kind of roll his eyes, snap a shot of me in my pajamas at home and call it good. I think it's awesome to capture the growing belly photos, especially if the belly is as cute as yours :)

Melissa said...

These make me wish I had more photos of myself pregnant! Gorgeous! And cute shirt... My "everyday maternity tee" was definitely NOT as cute. :)
