A Baby State of Mind

Wow! Not a post since September. Perhaps it's because I've been trying to avoid becoming one of those people who has kids and then can talk about nothing but their kids. I've realized I can't hide what I've become any longer.
It is what it is and, though little Baby M still has over a month of baking left, David and I have let her and the excitement of her arrival consume our spare time.

The recent weekends have been spent on activities largely centered around the little munch. The weekend of Sept. 19 some of our favorite people came for a visit — Jen, Tyson and Brody. Jen and Becca threw me an awesome baby shower with adorable decorations, delicious eats, and excellent company.

The next Saturday Ben and Becca arrived at our house
bright and early and we spent all morning doing a maternity photo shoot. It was fun and, thanks to their talented shooting prowess, the photos turned out great. David and I are so blessed to have such good friends! (You can see more of the maternity shots and baby shower shots on their blog here. Plus all of there other excellent camera work.)

This last Saturday was spent watching General Conference, but even that seemed to be different as we listened to the messages with the new perspective of impending parenthood. Not to mention the baby shopping we crammed in, in between sessions!

We're still the same people and of course we'll still do lot's of non-baby stuff. For now though, Baby M has stolen our schedules — right along with our hearts — and life is fuller for it.
