Pictures of mama...

I'll freely admit, I don't like having my picture taken but I realize that I need to get over that since it has little to do with me and more to do with documenting a history for my children (now soon to be the plural). It's an issue that will always be a work in progress because:  1.) my husband takes the worst photos of me, 2.) I'm incredibly sensitive about bad photos of me, and 3.) all photos of me are bad.

Because of this, Jamie isn't fond of taking my picture or my criticisms (see captions below). So there are very few pictures of me in existence but we're trying to change that for Nora's sake and now for her little brother. We'll do our best to capture some better quality bump photos but I have to ask Jamie to take them and he's a little scared to...

Great shot of my breasts, Jamie...not quite sure how this has anything to do with my bump unless you're counting my chins. This gets a D-.

The least flattering photo of me...ever. Childbirth photos were better. I have a mystery stain on my shirt, three chins, and what looks like a homeless street kid's belongings next to me. I give this a F-.

This I obviously took myself, not good. I give it a C.

Better lighting, definitely shows the bump, total miss on wearing my slippers and getting them in the shot. C+ at best.

This photo would be great if it wasn't so hilariously obvious that no one uses our good camera but myself. Put the phone down and setup a tripod, Barb. Oh, and maybe clear all that shit out of the way before you take a pic. Shameful, D.

Again, pick up the other camera but good try minus the lack of supportive bra, the crap in the background, and the fact that you're having to take this picture yourself. C- based on principle.
