From Baby Bump to Newborn

When Drew started to offer bump castings I didn't think this was something I would ever be interested in doing. However, I decided to give it a go and I'm really happy I did. Although I didn't save the original cast (something I have gone back and forth about since disposing of it) Drew captured some gorgeous photos of Sage in the cast that I will cherish forever. Since this was my last pregnancy these pictures are all the more precious. Also, when Drew took these photos at Day 12 Sage was nearly at her birth weight so it was a good depiction of her size when she was inside my womb.

The bump cast going on, Cyril stealing the show as usual, little does he know baby sister will soon make her debut.

Adorably chunky inside her cast.

Big smiles inside a tiny bowl.

Cuddles with mama, Sage was a star during the photoshoot and didn't open her eyes once!

Checking out his little sister, two seconds later he was pulling her hair.

Our favourite photo, although it's not in the cast she looks adorable here.

Drew is an incredible photographer. If you're interested in a bumpcast, pregnancy photos, newborn sessions or family portraits don't hesitate to visit her website. Drew Logan Photography

Two Months

I can hardly believe my sweet baby is already two months old, it's seems like a lifetime ago that I was sleep deprived, depressed, and in excruciating pain, not to freak anyone out that is about to have a baby! I've actually been meeting up with some new mums and one of the girls had a really easy labour and didn't struggle at all to breastfeed, in fact she was out and about with her baby girl 3 days after she was born. I wish I could say the same, fortunately Cyril and I have made tremendous progress since then and I have one well behaved and content baby, well most of the time. On Sunday a group of girls and I went to a friend's house for a Baby Calm Workshop and Cyril was very content the whole 4 hours, smiling and interacting for a good portion of the time, and sleeping in my arms the rest of the time. From the books I have been reading since Cyril was born I didn't feel the workshop really benefited me, especially since Cyril is already sleeping 7

Bad Ass Baby Soper

                                   VS             This Rad Hat                                These Bodysuits                          I think the decision is obvious                               While perusing several "baby friendly" websites to get an idea of what the little guy might need once he is born I came to the conclusion that cute  bad ass boys clothes are few and far between.  I would call Josh over to have a look at a few potentials, and his response was always "Eh, not really bad ass enough for our child, don't they have any surfy stuff."  I always commented about how many adorable and stylish options there were for girls but how the boys department never stacked up, I mean grown up men wear fashionable clothes and they're not all baby blue with donkeys and giraffes all over the place.  I know it's a baby, but come on people, no child of mine is going to be caught dead in this  I'm Cute Dinosaur Romper .  So I continued my search,

Nearly Halfway There, Yikes!

Well life just seems to be getting ahead of us at the moment.  I swear I need another full day every week just to get caught up on the growing list of things I need/want to do before Baby Soper arrives. Technically I was 19 weeks last Friday but Josh and I have been far too busy, and with the nights closing in on us we had to move the chalkboard photography indoors, otherwise I would have taken my 19 weeks photo this weekend, outdoors, but then I would have already been 20 weeks! ABOUT ME How far along? 19 weeks and 6 days Total weight gain/loss? From 133 (pre-pregnancy) to 141 for a total of 8 pounds! Maternity clothes? Yes and no.  Maternity clothes are more comfortable but I still fit into some of my pre-pregnancy outfits. The skinny pink  corduroys  are a definite no no however, and so is my itty bitty bikini, which means I'll be wearing a maternity bikini in Tenerife and looking like a beached whale! Stretch Marks? Thankfully those haven't appea
