Sometimes a mother knows best. Last Tuesday, Ailee and I were scheduled to take outfit pictures for the blog, but something told me I wasn’t going to have many more opportunities to take maternity pictures, if we didn’t make it happen fast. Ailee was leaving for San Francisco on Thursday and I starting getting Braxton Hicks (practice contractions) at Thanksgiving. Since having Knox at 34 weeks (and being 35 weeks pregnant), I was getting a little anxious that baby brother could be making his appearance soon. I didn’t have much hope that my last-minute text would amount to anything, but sweet Ailee rearranged her schedule and made these beautiful memories happen two hours later! The next morning, we checked into the hospital and Drew arrived at 5:30pm! I am so thankful to have these precious memories (as I never took maternity pictures with Knox).
I will share more pictures of our sweet baby this week, but I thought I would keep things in order by sharing maternity pictures first. 😉 Stay tuned for a birth update and pictures of our perfect little Andrew Nolty Knapp! Thank you again for all the sweet comments and messages!
