2 On Tuesday: Favorite Pictures

Hey friends! Happy Tuesday!

Thanks so much for joining me again this week for 2 On Tuesday! This week’s topic is:

What are your two favorite pictures of yourself?

Now I know some of you aren’t going to want to participate because I’m asking you to share pictures of yourself. I get it. I hate taking pictures of myself because I always think “is that really how big I am?” or “oh my, do I really look like that?” But there are good pictures of each of us out there. Maybe you don’t look perfect in them, but perhaps the picture is a special memory or a snapshot of a moment in time that you want to always remember. I want to see those pictures. It’s ok if someone else is in the picture as long as you are too!

I look like a mess in this picture. I’m rocking a double chin, my makeup went on vacation, and I’m pretty sure you can see my moustache. For once I don’t care. This is one of the most precious moments of my life, and you can see my happiness far more than you can see any of those other things.

I was 20-something weeks pregnant in this picture and had just stopped throwing up every 5 minutes. Good times. You can see the relief in my face.

I miss those shoes. My feet grew when I was pregnant and I can’t wear them anymore.

Lest you think I am vain, let me share some not-so-flattering pictures…

Apparently this is all the rage in maternity photography?

I don’t know, y’all. I just don’t know.

Lindsay said...

LOVE the picture of you and Cooper! Beautiful!

Cole said...

I think you're beautiful! And I just adore the picture of you and Cooper!

I hate having my picture taken, and people actually listen to me most of the time. I'll try to dig something up for this post...but I make no promises. Though I'll be really bummed if I end up missing a week!

Shawn said...

The picture of you holding Cooper is absolutely precious! I love any Mommy and her newborn picture!

You're way to hard on yourself, you are beautiful!

You are also very brave, I do not think I would post a picture of myself on my blog that I don't like...ever!

Impulsive Addict said...

I'm with Shawn on all accounts. I love the pic of you and Cooper. A mothers love--love at first sight! Nothing better!!

I'm not a big fan of posting unflattering pics of myself either but those are good pictures. Where are the REALLY bad ones?

I'm linking up in 18 minutes when my TTUT post goes live!

Shawn said...

I have my post ready to go first thing Wednesday, I hope you're ok with that but my TTUT was too long to add one more thing.

Kim said...

I generally hate all photos of myself, but there are a couple of wedding photos I like. And I recently took one with my daughter where she looks like a mini-me. We're both smiling and it looks genuine and I love it.

And none of your photos were bad.

AMY said...

Gorgeous Photos!
I LOVE the one with you and baby......Such a Precious photo!

Cheryl CB said...

I love the pic of you and Cooper!

And okay, the maternity photo in the bushes is kind of hilarious.

kourtney said...

I see no double chin or moustache in your picture with Cooper. Only a happy, content mom! Love the one of you by the water. Typical, happy pregnancy shot! Looking forward to those one day!

Girl in Carolina said...

You're so cute! Flattering or unflattering, still adorable! :)

Mandy said...

That one of you and Cooper? I hope you have a huge copy of that hanging up somewhere...just beautiful!

My first newborn pic of my and my kids are TERRIBLE!! I look worn out - you look beautiful!!

The photo of you holding Cooper is absolutely precious. That's definitely a special moment never to forget.

Debby@Just Breathe said...

Your pictures are so cute. Your right, I don't like pictures of myself. I know I have a few I like but I didn't have time to find them and scan them! Hope you have a great week.

Holly said...

Your maternity picture is beautiful - purple is so your color!

etta said...

What wonderful pictures! Sorry I didn't participate this week. I'm still crawling through a postpartum fog of sleep deprivation and breastfeeding. :P

Susannah said...

You seriously crack me the EFF UP! I am DYING laughing at that last picture solely because of your caption. And, I love that first picture of you! I think you look great, for realz!

Optimistic Mom said...

Great pictures. I always commend people who are confident enough to step out there and share in the online world.

My Chihuahua Bites
My Photo
Hi, I'm Andrea, and welcome to my blog! I am a 31 year old sassy southern momma to a beautiful baby boy. I'm also a social worker, and my husband is a submariner in the US Navy. I have two very loved and spoiled chihuahuas, who are featured frequently in this blog. In case you are wondering - no, they don't bite! I got the inspiration for the name of my blog from an OPI nail polish called My Chihuahua Bites. Please check back often and be sure to leave a comment so that I can visit your blog as well. Thanks for visiting!
