Attempt at Maternity Pictures

S and I ventured into Alexandria today to find a park. We ended up at Jones Point Park, an old park that covers Maryland, Virginia and District of Columbia land. Although I was having trouble smiling (maybe because I'm so pregnant...), there are some decent shots that we'd like to share.

This was our first attempt to use the timer. I sat on S, which explains his face and my surprised/scared face. And a better one next to it. 

Here is the requisite picture with hands on the belly. At least in this one you can't see my poor attempts at smiling. Who knew I could be so bad at it? The one next to it is S hovering over one of the original markers separating DC, MD and VA in the park. You can see the gold lines pointing in each direction away from buried rock marker. 

One successful smile!! :-) 

A look at the historic lighthouse.

S will teach little Tuesday some strong playground skills!  

Maybe it runs in both our genes. Here are my favorites from the afternoon!

Short Update

September 1^st, means only 2 weeks until our official due date. We are technically full-term and getting more nervous and excited to meet little Tuesday. Although there is a little bit of shopping left to do, I feel like we have everything we NEED in case Tuesday makes his/her appearance early. Now we are trying to get some meals cooked and frozen so those first few days aren’t made more overwhelming trying to figure out how to feed a baby and ourselves. :-)

Nothing new to report on the job front, still learning about the Gulf Region. My coworker is in Bahrain for a month, so I’m handling the whole region until I go out on maternity leave.

We’ll try to get some pictures of little Tuesday up once he/she is born. My helpful sister can get us looking cute enough for posting on our blog. There are so many little outfits to choose from!
