52/52



52/52

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

That's it! That's a wrap. I cannot even BELIEVE that I made it a whole year. Obviously, I'm a little behind, but I am still so incredibly happy to be standing here at the proverbial end of the 52 Project and looking back at the memories made this past year. How incredible. We're all incredible. I have to thank Jodi for being such an amazing inspiration and host, that woman is a true talent. She brought about such a wonderful community of moms and dads, and even though I haven't been commenting much, I've been browsing around everyone's photos and am continually blown away. This photo-documenting business is no easy feat, and this project has taught me, shaped me, in more ways that I can even articulate at the moment. I've thought long and hard about this, and I will be continuing in 2014 in a brand new space with an even loftier goal~~~

I hope you'll join me.

(I'm just a tad bit terrified!)

Week 27 Update

Hello fellow internet peoples.  Decided to give a HD video update for the beginning of my third trimester.  (WE SO EXCITED!)  It was a ton of fun to make, this time we were at home in Chicago.  Erick had a bunch of lighting equipment after all the interviews he did with the chicago school councils, so before he had to ship them back we took full advantage ;)  I'm learning more about codec and h.264 and prores 422 and although it makes absolutely no sense to me, maybe it will be useful knowledge in the future.  What do I know? It was obviously a very gesture laden, emotional, 10 minute interview.  I hope you all enjoy it.  It really is longer than I expected but instead of completely chopping it up, I decided to leave it how it is.  It's pure, natural, pregnant-y goodness of brain farts, odd humor, and searching for the right words.  If you make it to the end, remind me to give you a gold star or something.  I'll do it. ** A ...

bump : week 23

The sub-zero weather has kept us indoors, but it hasn't kept us from having the most amount of fun possible.  I've been enjoying hot cups of tea served with teaspoons of sugar and condensed milk, curling up with my favorite blanket and enjoying the tap-tap, nudge-nudge of the littlest De La Rosa.  Though I find myself playing catch up yet again (I'm 24 weeks!) I'm not complaining in the least bit.  I've had this little family of mine all to myself for a full four days with no work, no emails, no agenda and no pressure.   Ahhhhh... happy winter celebration, little baby. PS- did you know Erick finally launched his website ?  It's up, it's responsive, and it's gorgeous. I'm a proud muma bear.
