 Happy to be back in a challenge!! :)

Not sure if anyone noticed, but I have been quite absent around here lately..........apparently growing a human is hard work!!

Yep, you read that right. I am 4 months pregnant! Jason and I are expecting our first little one at the end of July. :)

This all came as a huge shock to us at the beginning of December, since we were not really planning on having a family just yet. It looks like the universe decided for us!

Here is our announcement photo, that still makes me laugh. :)

Looks like our roller coaster ride has just begun!

Thank you for all your kind comments and votes, and now that I am out of my first trimester, I hope to have some renewed energy and creative flow!

We already talked about your pregnancy in PMs, but congratulations anyway :-) I am so excited for you! And I can't wait to see the new little model in action ;-) Oh, and of course, congratulations on the ribbon: the lighting on your body and the shadow of the fingers are simply fantastic.

Wow a huge congrats. I hope the new addition to the family doesn't prevent you entering all these wonderful entries.

Love the "Days to baby" photo - that would surely have won a ribbon on here too.

My highest rated image of the challenge.

One nit pik. The hands seem a bit wonky. Really not proportionate with the reaper himself

Geesh... Christophe's staking out half-buried effigies of you, YOU are depicting yourself as at death's door (or in his hands anyway), things aren't looking too good for the Trans of the world right now :-(
