Maternity
So, I'm really good at putting off getting my own portraits done. Here are MY maternity portraits taken a mere 48 hours before my contractions started. My wonderfully agreeable husband hiked through a mosquito-infested flower field with me in the almost-high-noon sun to take these shots of me. I know, not the best conditions.... but sometimes you gotta do what you gotta do. Especially when you are 38.5 weeks along and know that the baby could come any day! ![](http://i519.photobucket.com/albums/u355/withoutaplace/JessMaternity.jpg)

The good news is that I'm not pregnant anymore!!! Our baby was born Tuesday. I will have a full post with more details and pictures soon!
You look amazing! I can't wait to see pictures of your little girl....and hear her name?? is she named yet??
Wow! You're husband is almost as amazing as you are. I hear he makes a good midwife too. Photographer, midhusband, mosquito tolerant, ambulance driver...is there anything he can't do?
I love these photos, Jessica (Chris!) And I'm so impressed with Baby Sister's birth story. (Susan called me past my bedtime to tell me to get on Facebook NOW! So exciting! Congratulations to you all!)
You guys are amazing. I keep hearing about this story on facebook, but some of us still don't do facebook (gasp!!). So please convert the story to blogger so the rest of the world can have all the juicy details. Even though I don't know the whole story, I think you're crazy and Shawn is extremely impressed with the both of ya's! I can't wait to see this little one! What can I do to help you? Watch older sibblings, clean toliets, bring dinner? Call me and let me know.
Congratulations Jessica! Very amazing! Can't wait to see her and hear your story!!
Love you, Cute mom!
Where are these taken at? I love them! You look so beautiful girl!!! CONGRATS!
These are beautiful! I've been on and off Facebook, but finally got the story about the birth. Amazing! Great job! And congratulations!
You are so cute! I must know where you found this field! (Praying it is near Vegas)
