Pregnancy

Round

Yesterday I took Avelyn to the Fall Fair where we looked at prize-winning produce.  I found I had a little too much in common with the pumpkin.

And will you look at that?  I made that illustration all by myself!  I have been meaning to tinker away in Adobe Illustrator for a few months now but it always got pushed to the back burner.  Last week I was asked to design a logo for work and in the few hours I spent on it I learned more about the program than in six months of procrastination.  Before you know it I’ll be just like SAJ .  A girl can dream.

PS:  Still no baby.

  • Hey, that’s good illustration! I was wondering where on earth would you would have found that picture.

    C’mon baby. We’re all waiting for you.

    I know this is cheesy and pretty lame, but every day of the TWELVE!!! days I was overdue, I’d tell myself that every day she was in there meant that she would come out that much stronger, that much healthier.

  • Very cute!!! I’m impressed!

    Would you tell that baby to hurry up? (As if you already haven’t!!!)

  • You really are getting good! I’m so proud of you. I’m also loving the illo :)

    Waiting (patiently!) for the call that you are in labour…

  • The feet are my favourite!

  • very impressive artwork, i must say. I can only draw stickmen…even with a computer program. It’s sad, really. I can’t believe little baby Hilda is taking her sweet time. Seriously child, enough is enough.

  • I feel you! My September baby kept me waiting, too. Hang in there. It’ll be any day now. Great picture, btw

  • Aw shucks. Thanks, you. I think your illo is perfect. It has what many many many artists can’t pull off no matter how hard they try. And that is a wicked sense of humor. You could be funny even if you drew with your foot (which Illustrator sometimes feels like!)

  • Did that come out wrong? I’m so bad at compliments. I totally didn’t mean your drawing looks like you drew it with your foot! Ack.

  • What is it with September babies? Two years ago today, I was soooo in your shoes! Go get a pedicure…they are a great break, and you never know, could put you into labour :)

  • You’re doing really well with Illustrator. I learned the basics in a day when I was handed a deadline at work. Once you get the basic idea of how the adobe sets up their commands you become a pro in no time at all. They also have video tutorials on the adobe site so you can watch someone go through the motions. So much easier than reading a dry tutorial.

  • I love your bedding! That crib looks so cozy and comfortable. Wishing you some contractions……..real ones.

  • Awesome job with Illustrator.

    Keeping my fingers crossed that baby comes soon!

  • Come on baby, show your cute little mug.

    What happens if I am only 30 weeks and already look like a fair pumpkin, where do I go from here?

  • you and my friend are both due this week, she’s hoping to be popped by friday. hope everything comes out okay, can’t wait to see pictures of her :)
