When something inspires me, I like to just dive in and go for it. It probably drives my hubby crazy because I don’t take the time to think a lot of things through and am impatient and inspired all at the same time, leaving little room or time for something to change my mind. Maybe it’s a middle child thing. Maybe it’s just crazy, but when something – ie. an idea –Ā comes into my mind, I find it very hard to to let it go…
What’s new in my brain, you ask?
Underwater photography.
Yup, trust me. IĀ was freaking out a little dunking my camera under the water for these shots, soooo nervous the casing would leak …Ā but after a while, it was proven to be quite safe. So with a few gadgets to keep me under the water, and with some ideas bursting from my brain, Heather, who is 8 months pregnant, sweetly agreed to model for me and try it out.
It was so much fun, but a LOT of work. Especially for two pregnant mommas. Thankful for hubby’s help with this project – he was great, even if he did nearly drown me by rigging up a leaky breathing apparatus. š
Four things I’ve learned from this venture:
1) pregnant woman are very buoyant …
2) I don’t breathe well underwater with a snorkel kit. No kidding.
3) Charlie Horses are not fun.
4) This is definitely something I’m going to love!
And just for fun … two bellies for the price of one … my belly on the left (29 weeks) and Heather’s baby bump on the right (33 weeks)…
I have lots to learn but am totally going to love the process! Maybe it’s time for a backyard pool …
{Big thank you to my client and friend, Janet, for letting me use her pool! You’re soooo sweet!!}
