Family Fotos

Today JB planned a fun post-church activity day for our family. We went to the new shopping area across the street from McGuires, had lunch on the water, and took some family photos! When we got to church today, we realized the church was planning a big "fun day" of their own. Had we planned ahead, I am sure we would have gone, but since we've been out of town, we weren't up-to-speed on this event, and already excited about our family plans for the afternoon. So we kept things the way we had them planned.

Anyways, it was a wonderful day as a family. Here's some of the photos from our first attempt at a real family portrait. I have included a picture of me as well at the end. Many of you have encouraged me to go ahead and document on the blog this part of our journey as well. This seems to be a very tasteful photo -- and so I have included it. Thanks to my wonderful online friend for the "loan" of a great maternity skirt!

Enjoy!

We missed you guys at the church picnic. Great pictures though. I wondered why your hair was down today at church. It is unlike you to wear your hair down and wear a skirt. I should have known something was up. Jocelyn is looking forward to her playdate with you, Isaac, and Scrubs tomorrow.

Very cute. For framing, I like the one on the stairs the best - good coloring and lighting :)

And, please don't feel guilty for posting pictures of your growing belly. You deserve this pregnancy as much as anyone else ttc for so long - enjoy it!
