Since this blog is "my new baby" and I'm introducing myself and my journey I thought it would be fitting to post about my real baby. I have so many things I want to share and so many ideas I have about where I want to take this new venture. It feels like when I was pregnant with my now 2 year old. The excitement, nervousness, and vulnerability of preparing a new phase. I started thinking about those final weeks preparing for my big round bundle of joy. I started reminiscing about my maternity pictures. I was huge and swole, but I had a blast shooting. I had the big preggo face and feet, but taking the pictures gave me a reason to glam up and made me feel cute. The photographer was Ah-mazing! In fact, she was so great I had her back to shoot him once he arrived. For real, Y'all check her out! IG:@choldenphotography www.choldenphotography.com
I plan to have many "real" conversations about motherhood and how being a mom had changed my life. As I stated before, I'm no expert. You won't see perfectly staged IG pics with me. I'm learning on how to get a handle on shit. Chile, my rambunctious toddler wears me OUT! I love him and he's a blast and such a cool lil kid. He's my lil homie, my ace, but lord knows he keeps me tired. I wouldn't trade it for anything in the world! I will introduce him and his wild personality at a later time as we dig deeper into the topics of parenting.
For now, I feel that the maternity pics fit the analogy of this blog. I'm preparing to give birth sort of...Which made me think of these beautiful pictures and I wanted to share. Looking back at them gives me all the feels.
Y'all these are from two years ago. I am NOT pregnant. In fact, I'm drinking at 2:00 PM on a Thursday as I type this. LOL!
Enjoy! Talk to y'all soon when we meet to talk about these crazy ass kids!
