The place where these pictures are taken is at the top of a beautiful mountain... Isai's and my picnic location. Usually, if you can make it to the top of the mountain without anyone seeing you, your chances of being "alone" are good. Now, if any one sees you at any point... no hope. You will for sure have a crowd within minutes. The children in these photos were some of the "spectators"; laughing and giggling at every pose. We figured... you want to watch us take photos, you mise well be in one or two! The interesting thing here, or should I say "culturaly different" is that many woman don't talk much about being pregnant, and they are much more emotionally detatched during pregnacy and birth. I beleive it may have something to do with the amount of deaths both inside and outside the womb, although thats just an opinion. Some families don't name there child until within 10 after the baby is born; while for us... we usually have names picked out months before, if not even before conception! I would have to say that is what made taking pregnacy pictures out in public a little akward. As many people watched, I wondered "what was going through their head" as they saw Isai and I being affectionate and loving towards eachother and our son to come. Even among most husbands and wives here, outward affection is rare - so rare that they often ask Iasi & I are you brother and sister? Of course, we naturally are affectionate always with one another (we can't help it!). Well, enjoy these pics and expect more to come! All our love...P.S. Today is birthday day for me... Isai is making me a flan (my own, just for me!)
