remembering now : december 20th 2012







The Remembering Now Project, 2012

Catch the rest of the series here.

This day, exactly a year ago, we made sugar cookies just you and I.  You were six months old and too little to help, so I wore you against my chest. This year you are much bigger, able to laugh and cut out stars, to proclaim excitedly "coooookie!" and of course - taste the sweet reward for putting in all that hard work.

    Ahh, so fun! What a great tradition to start :) I love her romper. And her hair! and her! Oh my, where have her pudgy legs gone? ;) I love the Remembering Now posts. I'm feeling inspired to document more for my family. I also love that you are sharing your weekly pregnancy photos. I know you aren't fond of being on the other side of the camera, but I am happy to be seeing more of you :)

    This is gorgeous! I wanted to do this with Everly so bad this year, but - alas - we had 45 degree weather yesterday so we decided to leave the oven off, understandably! Next year for sure. x

the birthing of alba mae

From the beginning, this pregnancy seemed so much the same, yet so distinctly different all at once. I didn't get sick, I wasn't too turned away by my favorite foods, I had occasional heartburn here and there and overall, was able to relax and enjoy the experience.  What was strange was how differently I was carrying - having been told more times than I could count that I had looked as if I had "swallowed a basketball".  I think I was persuaded a few times in my head that maybe this was  different, maybe it really was a baby boy.  Yet still, in my heart I had an overwhelming intuition I would be holding another little girl in my arms, someone so very similar to her sister yet so distinctly different all at once.
