Since the moment KG and I met, we knew that everything we wanted was about to become reality. He was everything that I needed. It was so ridiculously obvious and right.
I was his inspiration. He was my hope and determination.
The past months have been such a blur. We just moved into our new little house at the end of August. It's so surreal. To have a space to fill up with our art work, our dreams and our love. We have a little studio space with plenty of room for his work and mine. He's been busy painting, learning and leaving me in the dust when it comes to skills. I stopped painting in oils for now because I am not sure what that might do to our baby. Instead I have been sketching and relaxing. And eating. :)
These pictures are tid bits of this journey, from the beginning to today.

It's a boy! His name is Michelangelo, named after Michelangelo Merisi da Caravaggio. Yes, this is a picture of his weewee. He was very obvious but hid his face from us so we got this view of his bent legs and booty.
The circle area on the left is my placenta, not his belly. |
 |
| in the elevator at my 2nd appointment for ultrasound |
 |
| He finally showed us his profile. I think he was smiling and I felt that he knew exactly what he was doing. hehehe |

My Handsome, spraying some varnish on his finished painting. I can't believe he did this
in 2 weeks when it would take me a year, at least, to learn. |

I am happy to finally share all of these pictures that I have kept in the journal i write for Michelangelo. He is kicking right now so I should probably go snack before he gets impatient. hehehe.
Sorry about the lack of blogging. I hope this makes up for it.
