Sharing the best photos I’ve ever taken in my entire life. Please enjoy round 1 from our maternity shoot. This is our little boardwalk to the beach. When we first moved to Florida in January, Kilmer was 10 months old. Each time we went to the beach, I would let her crawl down the boardwalk and think to myself, soon she’ll be running down this thing. I just so happened to get pregnant the same day we moved to Florida. And soon, she was running and I began to envision pregnant me walking with Kilmer down this path. And lately the visions have shifted to holding a newborn in one arm and Kilmer’s hand with the other while making our way to the ocean. This little boardwalk has become a special place. Big blue crabs often hide in earth surrounding us. We’ve seen snakes and birds and all kinds of critters that have made it a fun stop. It’s the shade from the sun, the place we swat mosquitoes and the spot where we strip down and wash the sand off our body while playing in the hose water. I wanted pictures with her here so badly and @createanomaly made that dream come true. I’ll always think fondly on these special moments together. Life before two. Just me and my first in barefoot exploration.

You know when the tent goes up it won’t be long before baby comes down! Let the ceremonies begin ✨ This is quickly becoming a very special tradition for our family. After having a scare last week that baby was coming early, we jumped on getting the tent set up. @nicotortorella is incredible at making visions come to life and has been meticulously prepping the space so that we have all we need and more. The tent signifies something so special for me, it means it time to slow, time to ground and time to mentally shift from earth space to birth space. The final days / weeks before baby is so reverent even among the chaos of a toddler. Big thanks to Kilmer’s nana and baba for helping us all day! Stay tuned for part 2 when the tent is complete!
If you’ve been following long enough, you know I have a thing for storms and rainbows. Storms were a special for me and my dad, we’d sit on the porch watching them together. Some of my best childhood memories are watching the rain fall with him. The day he died, he sent rain. Later, he started coming to me through rainbows, especially during our infertility journey and after we experienced pregnancy loss – Kilmer is a rainbow baby. Yesterday morning, I realized I hadn’t seen a rainbow since we moved to Florida which felt strange bc it’s all sun and rain these days. Like clockwork, we went outside for our evening walk and a big bold rainbow was waiting for us. We told Kilmer all about Paw-paw Fran. I love love and grief and signs and blessings. Happy Sunday friends. *also swipe to the end for Kilmer’s first rainbow 🥹

Nothing like a little dumpster photo shoot behind the restaurant at your baby shower! Loveeeee these photos from @ashtonroyalcreative I started budgeting for event photographers for special occasions several years ago – holiday parties, bdays, baby shower etc – and it’s some of the best money I’ve ever spent. Not having to take out your phone to capture the moment is MAJOR you end up with awesome family and friends photos. 10/10 would recommend. // @nicotortorella
36 weeks today 🍒 If you all kept up with @nicotortorella insta the past few days you know we had a little scare but are doing good now. I’ll save the story for the pod but in the meantime, would love your blessings / prayers / wishes as we work to keep this baby cooking for at LEAST five more days. (preferably three more weeks for lucky 39)
