I have to say that in addition to having a lot fewer pictures of the new baby at this point as opposed to the vast number of pictures taken of Brittain, I’ve also immediately taken cover if anyone attempted to take a picture of me. I don’t know what it is…I guess it’s that unrealistic expectation that we as new mothers have on ourselves. We allowed ourselves 9 months to become huge and let ourselves go while we house this other human, then suddenly when the baby is finally out we expect to look like we’re ready to walk down the runway immediately. I have certainly NOT been runway ready, and for some reason it has taken me even longer than the first time to even get to a point where I didn’t mind being seen outside of my own home. All of this to say that these pictures were taken almost 3 months after Coleman’s birth, and I ain’t likin’ what I see. But I still love these because it’s with my two sweet babies…
