The decorating & shopping are done, we've read the books and been to the ante-natal classes. At 39 weeks we're just waiting now.

    Great set, gubbs.

    Now that is dedication to photography. Having a baby for the photo ops!

    ginger:D

    Get crackin" labs! Best photo op you all will ever have.

    (I agree on the second photo, something really special, more "expectant" than "pregnant". I would hang, definitely.)

    Thanks for all the comments. I got Erin to read through too, she's not feeling her best at the moment so the kind words really helped. She was touched :cry

    Thanks again, and don't worry Lynn, I'll keep you informed :D

    Keep your spirit up Erin, it will all be over only too soon. Then the days will rush by too quickly. You really do look wonderful. When I was 39 weeks couldn't do much but sit around...In fact I got stuck in a bean chair when I was at home by myself...very embarassingrolleyes1.gif

    Can't wait to see pictures of the wee one....Good Luck:D

    I want to be that age again and have a baby! Loved having babies! Tell your wife to hang on, having babies is wonderful! All the attention you get! Never get that kind of great attention again!

    And the photo ops. That is how I learned photography, on my last baby and the toddler, along with the older ones. I HAD photo ops then, could have KPOTD almost every day, smile.

    Enjoy it while you can! Good luck and, well, I am jealous!

    Lovely series, Jon. Things may seem calm right now, but they will soon speed right up to light speed. Get some sleep, you may need it later.

    Congratulations! Beautiful shots, by the way. Wish I was that good a photographer back in the day.

    Seems that dgrin has a positive correlation with fertility. Maybe we need to do a study.
    If not now, when?
