34 week belly pics

I have so much to blog about from the last two weeks... 

• A trip north of Bogota to the town of Villa de Leyva, considered one of the finest colonial villages in Colombia where we visited an ostrich farm, ran around a dinosaur park, swam for hours, toured the town itself, and got a bit lost before finally finding the town of Raquira.
• A two-day-turned-five-day vacation at a finca (a rural holiday home/estate) with three other families we've met since moving here. Eight adults, nine kids, horses, a pool, tennis courts, amazing grounds, wonderful food... and mandatory maids to clean up after us so we could just enjoy our time. Oh, and HUNDREDS of bug bites.
• Our Easter that didn't feel much like Easter.

But for today I'm going to post some "self" maternity pictures I took yesterday. I have to get better at clicking the remote and hiding it quickly while keeping the boys out of the frame AND POSSIBLY REMEMBERING TO SMILE. I look angry/sad/depressed in most of them. But it wasn't as painful as I anticipated, so maybe I'll try again in a few days. Definitely once I get my hair cut this Saturday... if I go through with it (since Peter still isn't on board with me getting dreads).

(It might also inspire me to change out of my pjs on a more regular basis...)

So these pictures were taken yesterday at 34 weeks + 1 day,

(See those three large, empty frames above the couch? Know what they say about the cobbler's kids' wearing hole-y shoes and the mechanic driving a car about to break down? Yeah, same thing with photographers. Or at least with this photographer. Empty frames or just no pictures AT ALL.)
