"A portrait of my child, once a week, every week, in 2013."

Quiet moments around the house have been become our new normal.  Patiently waiting for spring, indulging in naps, talking late into the night. Pure and utter exhaustion have plagued everyone in the family this week - not just your pregnant mum for a change.  Thankfully, you've been up for some extra cuddles and sharing popsicles on the couch with both of us.  Happy, lazy days just planning away, preparing and dreaming...

Joining in with the lovely Jodi of Che & Fidel
