You Capture – YOU

August 7, 2009 by Elaine

Okay, so I’m a day late doing this post but I forgot (story of my life these days) what the subject was this week for You Capture. But, I still want to participate, so I am. I’m instituting the “better late than never” clause. So HAH!

Here are my couple of shots, taken while in Chicago…


And I also said I wouldn’t post today but whatever.

Visit Beth for more You Capture. Her photos are wonderful, as per usual…

    Hi Elaine

    Beauty Full photos! I love, love, love that belly shot and those shoes are so cute. I will have to remember this idea for later down the track, get myself some cute shoes and borrow your idea!

    So happy to read that you had a lovely lunch with some new mums you have recently met.

    How wonderful to be able to go back “home” to have a baby shower. This will be such a special and fun time.

    I wish I had some quick fix remedy for swollen feet, but I am afraid I don’t. Oh, how I remember my obstertician telling me that my swollen feet and ankles were the most swollen he had EVER seen – boy did I feel special! All I could do was try and elevate them and get around in comfy slippers!

    Now that your parents are here for a visit I hope you are getting more opportunities for an afternoon siesta.
