Maternity Pictures at 33 weeks and Joshua's first photo shoot!

Last Saturday we were blessed to conduct a photo shoot with a lovely lady name Zoe at Sunset Cliffs. Zoe is a fellow nurse of mine who has many gifts, one being photography. We had so much fun with Zoe and Joshua, as you can see. Zoe even got wet for us. While trying to snap a shot, a nice wave from the ocean hit her and she was soaked. We all laughed it off and Zoe was a good sport about it. She thought it was worth it to get a great shot of Joshua and us.


After we left the photo shoot Wes said that he would never forget that day. We felt so close to each other and our son as we took time to make the best kodak moments! I would not even say it was gorgeous day because it was very overcast, but it did not matter with all the love that was in the air for each other and Joshua. As you can see Zoe made the best out of the day too, with the great shots snapped of our little Champ as he is still growing in momma's womb.

If you are interested to get some great photography done in San Diego, let me know. Zoe is open for new customers and I will pass on her information.

33 weeks and Nesting has began!

The nesting instinct is the name given to the distinctive urge to clean, tidy, and organize that occurs during pregnancy. One of the many pregnancy symptoms that you will experience, the nesting instinct generally kicks in around the fifth month of pregnancy, however it can also occur much earlier or much later. Many women acutely experience the nesting instinct in the final days of their pregnancy, and this can often be a sign that labor and delivery is close at hand. Nesting tends to vary from woman to woman; in fact, some women don’t experience the nesting instinct at all when they are pregnant. Others experience mild forms of the instinct while others feel the urge much more severely.


I am very excited I officially started to nest last week when my mom arrived to help me with Joshua's nursery. Before she arrived I was actually discouraged after having all three of my showers and feeling just a little overwhelmed by all the gifts and Joshua's belongings that need to be organized(by the first picture you can see that it was quite a bit to do). I just did not feel the urge to began the process. I can now say that I am on a non-stop nesting run and we are ready for J.J! We are just waiting on the rest of his furniture. This was purchased by his wonderful grandparents and will be personally delivered by them next week.(Stay tuned for more pictures to come once the entire nursery is complete).
