21 weeks
I feel like a bulb about to burst into bloom. Now that the whole house thing has fallen through and it looks like I'll be birthing my babe in our present house, my mind is turning towards serious changes/nesting. Wanting a feeling of openness and flow throughout the house. Extraneous possessions either tidied away or donated. A look at essentials. A feeling towards the gentleness of white wool and soft gray and sunshine and houseplants. Working on the garden will be the main thing. I imagine we'll find a house within a year or so and that this is the last summer I'll be able to spend with it, so I can focus on annuals and vegetables and colors. A major clearing out is going to occur, even if I have to be out there in may on my hands and knees working our compost in. June is the perfect time to have a new little one, and he's going to have plenty to look at as we spend time out there under starry skies or a morning sunshade!

well not matter how big you get.. you look beautiful!
wishing you continued patience and calm joy as your next home will surely find you. :)
Just found you via you find me on Flickr -- what a beautiful belly! I remember having a similar feeling, and carried very big.
It's funny, my little guy is 2 now, and I'm quite recently struck with a much stronger urge to nest and purge than I was when I was pregnant. Fingers crosses I stop thinking about it and get going with it.
my belly is huge! its a gigantic basketball sitting atop my body. it moves in waves. it vibrates at night in rhythm from baby hiccups. i can't believe it could be so big. you are right, june is the perfect time for a little one. love your pic!
Oh lovely mama-to-be! it is indeed a structural impossibility! let me assure you it will become even more improbable. Really, its just the start of the miracles that occur with the coming of a child! many blessings for the journey!
YOU are one beautiful pregnant lady!!
You look utterly beautiful Brooke. Your belly could get a LOT bigger :~) Happy nesting ~
