I've now begun the countdown to Ellie's first birthday (ok, I know, I know, I started that countdown a long time ago, but this time it's for reals!), and I can just already tell that this is going to be a very emotional week for me. I've already gotten teary-eyed once or twice thinking about how awesome and toddler-like my daughter is, and looking back at pictures of her as a teeny tiny newborn makes me all kinds of sentimental.
This week's flashback is a little collection of pictures from my pregnancy. I took "belly pictures" almost every week from about 8 weeks on lol! I just wanted to document my pregnancy so that I would have something to look back at, but also so that I could show them to my child one day. I will definitely do the same with any of my future pregnancies, because I believe growing a baby is truly a miracle and it is something special to be cherished.
Speaking of future pregnancies......Ellie turning one is totally giving me baby-fever. She's just not so much of a baby anymore, and it makes me want another one! Plus, I kind of miss being pregnant, and all the excitement that comes along with it. But, we will just have to make our own excitement, just the three of us for now! I look forward to the day when we can have another baby (or two or three), but we're still young, and there's plenty of time for that........
