HATCH Maternity

I recently got some photos taken with my kids by the talented Sara Welch when I was home in the US this summer. Because I’m usually the one behind the camera it’s rare to find a photo of me with my kids, so it’s a special treat to have these photos. It’s also sort of fun to document my growing baby bump, no matter the qualms I have of my big pregnant body. I keep telling myself that this is the last time I’ll ever be pregnant, and I should enjoy my body, enjoy this feeling of carrying around a baby inside of me… and all the pains (and gains!) that come with it.

I wore my shirt dress from HATCH for the photos. I finally decided to invest in a few of their dresses, and I’m so happy I did. I’m really psyched about them because I think I’ll still be able to wear them even after the pregnancy is over and my body has (hopefully) gone back to normal. A worthwhile investment for sure!

Anyway, I wanted to share these photos with you. Might be the last time I ’show off’ this baby bump. I’ve got 10 weeks to go!

Really really lovely photos, you and the kids look lovely. I love the first one when you are looking down at your bump and your eldest son is looking up at you. They are definitely photos to be treasured.

Just divine. Do you mind me asking where the shoes your beautiful boys have on are from?

21. Lily | August 25, 2012

I think the boys are wearing birkenstocks
