While we wait

My contractions from yesterday lessened and we got lots of sleep last night. I woke up today wanting to take advantage of still being pregnant so we went for a short hike up Blue Mountain to take some preggo pictures. This is the same place we took pictures while pregnant with Madeleine. It was a lot of fun and very different from our first time up there.
First of all, it took a lot longer to get to our destination.

But once we got there, we had lots of fun playing, posing, and poking. It's pretty easy to tell that Parker has dropped and is getting into position to come out soon!



When it was all said and done, we still weren't in labor but at least one little pookie was at peace.

You're beautiful, Melinda, and you've inspired me to keep huffin and puffin on my walks and in my daily activities and not make excuses. You guys are such a cute family. I love you all.

I love that video :-) And I think the picture of you sitting with Madeleine is one of my all time favorites. Any aspiring photgraphers out there (stance...) should take note ;-) And my other favorite is the one of her sitting on Parker when you're standing up. You look amazing! Yay for famiy hikes!
