Brian & I did a maternity photo shoot when I was right at 36 weeks pregnant. We had a great time...as the photographer really shot "us" first & then focused in on the "belly"! We had a great time at Mike's studio here in Roswell. He's out on 8 acres of land & has his studio on the back of the property. There are more than 200 photos, so I tried to pull some of my favs. If you want to see "the complete collection", let me know & I'll send you the site & password info.
I would recommend that anyone who is pregnant definitely have maternity photos taken. As conscious as you might feel about your weight, you will only be pregnant & really "look" pregnant one, two or three times in your life. You should capture that for yourself & your child. I would love to have seen my mother's bare belly when she was expecting me!
Baby White also wanted to be a big part of this shoot...you can see him/her sticking his heel/butt up on my belly - specifically the shots where I'm laying on my back. Check out the difference in the one that's in color to the one that's in black & white. I was laughing so hard during the shoot...my belly looks like a camel!
So, as of today, we're 8 days away from Baby White's due date. I have an appointment tomorrow to find out I've dialated any further. Last Wednesday, the doctor said I was "the tiniest centimeter" dialated, so we should continue to expect a December baby! I have to admit, I'm finally ready. The discomfort in my back & recent carpal tunnel have made working, sleeping, etc. a bit miserable...but all in all, I have so little to complain about...We are so blessed to have a little baby for Christmas! We are just so anxious to find out if it's a boy or girl...who he/she will look like...who will the baby act like!
Enjoy the photos & we wish you & your families a wonderful holiday season...Check back here for more info on Baby White's impending arrival!

Those pics are absolutely priceless!! You can just see the anticipation on your faces.
Isn't it amazing to realize how much excitement is behind your little one's arrival? I wish I could come see you in the hospital. Please give Bebe White a special kiss just from Chicago Beth!
