time is flying by, i tell you. eleanor turns 1 years old in 2 short weeks and i am half way through this second pregnancy. before you know it, we'll be putting back up those christmas decorations! ;)
i swear my belly button popped back out by day 5 of this new pregnancy (perhaps that has something to do with my abs never fully coming back together from the first time around.... and you really wanted to know that, right?) but i fortunately haven't really experienced morning sickness or food aversions yet (still able to eat meat over here!) so all is good. it makes me wonder if i'm carrying a boy this time (we're not finding out the sex again until the birth) as it's all been pretty different this time around. but who knows, right? we'll see....
i think we're confusing eleanor since we're always pointing to my growing belly and saying "baby!" and then again using the word whenever we are out and about and see an actual baby. but i've been re-reading most of my pregnancy books and whenever there is a little photo of a baby on the page she loves to lean in and give it a kiss. it's kind of the cutest thing ever. i'm really looking forward to seeing her as a big sister.

oh lady, you look gorgeous! she's gonna be such a great big sister--can't wait to see that!
Life is so Wonderful :) and you look lovely!
UM, ADORABLE!!!!!!!
so cute! both of you!
Love your tights! Can't wait to watch Eleanor become a big sister - how sweet that she kisses pictures of babies!
Aw! How cute!
Wait until you're pregnant with number 3:) You'll pop out even quicker!
I had 3 babes in 3 years...with #2 and especially #3 my belly popped out FAST!!!! How far apart will yours be?
So exciting! Beautiful pic. Thanks for sharing:)
Looking fabulous!!! I am six weeks behind you :) you are soooo lucky you don't have food aversions. I have never been a picky eater and am now the worlds worst!!! Missing food :(
It's going to be too cute to bear when you have a mini Eleanor. Can't wait! x
How exciting for you guys..aaand you look amazing! I bet you're going to have a boy this time - eleanor will make the best big sister! Love seeing your updates :)

Cute overload with your baby bump and little eleanor :3 <3
you both look so adorable! can't believe you're half way.
OMG your little on is so CUTE!!! Your super cute!!! Love your blog always excited to read it :)
ooooh! you look fabulous!
The dress and the denim jacket is a great combination!
Im in my 24th week and my belly is like the Madison Square Garden! LOL!
you are the cutest!!!!!
How exciting!!!
you look beautiful! and Eleanor ... she is just the cutest! doesn't it go so much faster the second time around?
and for the abs, i don't think it's too uncommon. i believe there are exercises you can do after the pregnancy for the abs to come together again so there isn't that gap in the muscle. if that's what you are referring to ;)
You look gorgeous...your little family is such perfection!!!

you're just inspiring, lady.
I'm myself excited for the baby, cant wait!! you look beautiful and E she's so adorable and cute!!
goodness -- so sweet!

happy monday! xo
Oh, you just look gorgeous. The pregnancy suits you. xo
love you adorable people.

love you adorable people.

You are the cutest pregnant lady ever!
You look so good! Eleanor is going to be such a good big sister!
Eleanor is going to love being a big sister (to a boy or a girl) and it is so great to have two kids so near in age. There is an 18 month difference between my brother and I and we are so close. Wouldn't change it for the world!

Hooray for halfway there! So cute.
Beautiful momma and beautiful baby girl! :)
And this is such a sweet post. Love it.
you guys are totally rockin the cuteness in this shot :)
you are so pretty <3
You look amazing. I definitely wasn't that cute the second time around.
I love how joyous you look in this photo but how could you not? And you are just looking gorgeous as ever...pregnancy really agrees with you.
Beautiful!
Same thing happened to me, abs never came back together and pop!... out came that belly right away. My son is 14 months and i'm 14 weeks, so we're quite similar to one another. My belly feels different too... a little squishier. haha... I figure it has a larger room to grow into, but I'm waitng for that nice hard pregnant belly feel. In any event, as I've said before, pregnancy looks great on you. You look absolutely stunning.
I bet your having a boy. I had NOTHING other than tiredness and dizziness with my son. This time around I had some nausea and food aversion so I'm thinking it's a girl... but we're waiting as well.
Congrats!

You and Eleanor both look too sweet!
Im so excited for you! Eleanor is going to be a great ig sis. Thats fun you guys are waiting to find out if its a boy or girl until delivery! Exciting!
oh my. I'm a far cry from having a family myself...
but everytime I see you I could change my mind right away. who needs an arts degree anyway?
you look amazing and so does your little family!

This is so cute!

How cute are you! That is soo sweet Eleanor gives the babies kisses. I'm sure that makes your heart melt!
you have the cutest little baby belly! definitely lucky :) so happy to hear your little girl has lots of love already!!
Cute belly!
kisses.
you look amazing! eleanor is the cutest baby girl in the world!
Beautiful girls, beautiful belly, beautiful outfit.
congrats! super cute photo
Your are the cutest! :D
You both look amazing.
I can't wait to see this next baby!! Eleanor will be a wonderful big sister and you look amazing pregnant, mama. xo! flyfromthehighestswing.blogspot.com
You guys are too cute and your walking in heels while pregnant! Amazing!

that is so sweet!
and eleanor might just be the cutest little girl i've ever seen!
xo, cheyenne
Aaaawwww.... You look lovely!!!!
can you adopt me? I want to be part of your super cute family!
their closer in age so she has a chance to be happy about this.
i wasn't. i had five years to myself and it kinda shows in how i treated my younger brother. it's still rocky, to say the least.
but if your youngin' ends up like that sweet and adorable eleanor, i think you'll have nothing to worry about.
Anyone who looks as good as you do now pregnant and as good as you did after pregnancy should have a ton of babies. I feel guilty admitting that I don't want one right away because I still feel fat from the first one.
oh my gosh, she is going to looove having "her own" baby! so many sweet little kisses in your future :)
So cute! Love both of your outfits!
Beautiful picture! Congrats!
You're looking great! x

20 weeks already? you're halfway there! or, if this pregnancy is like your last, you're 1/3 of the way there! ;)
cutest picture ever! i love this!
As always you look lovely, and so does Eleanor.
Love your red tights and shoes!
i would say you're in the clear for morning sickness, lucky you! you look lovely. xx
I am in love with your blog, I can't believe I just discovered it! It looks like your whole life is stylish and classy! I am a beginner blogger - http://dianamamlieva.com/
Love love love! Those tights, shoes, oh and the beautiful little girl on the hip is pretty cute too!!!

You two (three!) are adorable! I cannot believe that Eleanor is almost one, and you are half way done with your second pregnancy! Time really does fly!
Your bump is visible and so cute. Awww...now I really want to make my daughter a big sister too.

Mygoodness, there is so much happiness and joy and beauty in this photo. YOu are the most gorgeous pregnant lady and your daughter is the cutest baby! TOTES ADORABLE!
Kudos for NOT finding out the sex. I'm 23 weeks and we are not finding out either. And every time I say it, people respond, "Oh, you are one of thoooooose people".
can't believe E is almost one!! you're both adorable. so excited for baby #2. i think it's a boy too :) just a hunch
so cute you guys are!!!!

oh my gosh words cannot describe how adorable you are and how adorable it is that Eleanor kisses pictures of babies! in her own little mind, she's probably excited but maybe not sure what she is excited for?! just a thought! SUPER cute.
-jessica
You're little family is so adorable! I hope you have a little boy but as long as baby is healthy that's all that matters.
You're glowing & beautiful.
Congrats :)
oh my gosh, this is seriously the cutest thing ever. What a beautiful pregnant woman you are!
I am one week away from the due date for my second baby...mine will be sixteen months apart. It must be similar to your two! I must say, it has been fun to try to teach my son that there is a baby in my belly. He gives my belly kisses...and whenever we get together with friends with babies I try to show him their babies too! Well, good luck with the second half of the pregnancy!
What a great picture of you two! Such happy faces!

How cute are you?!
HELLO beautiful baby bump! You are doing quite well baking that baby, not to mention taking care of yourself and little E!--speaking of which, I can't believe she's turning 1! My little boy was born in March so his first birthday is coming up as well and I'm totally becoming a basket case about taking in every moment that he's "still" a baby. He kind of just looks at me like, "Mom, calm down."
That's very exciting that you're waiting to find out the gender! Maybe you're right and it's a boy!--he would be a very studdly little man, no doubt <3
Oh, it's really fantastic and you're so beautiful!
I'am a new follower of you great blog (and I'm French, sorry for my pityfull english...)
What an adorable photograph! LOVE the dress on you, especially with those red tights!

Can you get any cuter with the belly and little E? That's great you're waiting find out [again]! I think I'd like to do that someday but I know it won't happen. I'd die of curiosity!

aww she will be an awesome big sis... you look lovely and so happy... cogratulations again!! xo

wow, i can't believe you're already halfway through! time really is flying by!
Beautiful pic :)
I want mine close together too, and was always worried that the older one might hate not being the only one anymore! but since she's already kissing little baby pictures, i am not worried anymore! haha, so precious. and so is your dress! where did you get it? i've been looking for one like that for lightyears.
you couldn't be any cuter! love it!
so sweet!
That is just the cutest thing!
You look amazing!! I wish I looked as cute as you, I'm 26 weeks along with my first. :)
So sweet to see you both with such big grins!
oh goodness! look at you two! very adorable and so fashionable. i would be curious to see how you would dress a boy, since you have such an unique style.
leyla.
such adorable baby!! can't wait for the second one :)
The Beautiful Mind
you look great! and I always love seeing how you and your little girl dress!
First of all, you look beautiful and glowing and fantastic! Good for you for stylin' it through your pregnancy!
The same thing happened to my belly button with my third boy... it popped out super early. Turned out I had a hernia (which happens a lot with subsequent pregnancies). Just be careful lifting up baby E so you don't end up with a bad hernia! Mine was pretty painful, but I'm almost 5 months postpartum and it is finally closing back up.
Love your blog, by the way!
what a happy picture!
You both look beautiful :D
adorable!!
i'm sure she'll be a wonderful big sis!
I love this photo! So much joy coming out from you! May the Lord always always bless you so very much! <3
love your shoes :)
what a sweet picture! i'm almost 20 weeks with my second also and my belly button popped out before my belly. my morning sickness was also way better this go around and i am having a boy, so perhaps you will too!
my 18 week bump:
http://marlamichau.blogspot.com/2012/01/week-18.html
super excited for you! when i first saw you were carrying eleanor i was so pumped and surprised. can't wait to see if its a girl or a boy.
Aww Eleanor is going to be such a good big sis & can I say- you must be one of the most stunning ladies [pregnant or not], you look glowing!
absolutely precious!! gonna be such an exciting year for you to be a mommy to two babies!

Eleanor is too cute! I love that you're waiting to find out the sex of this baby too!
Adorable! Love the way eleanor is peeking over. I hope it's a boy!
You look so great for being 20 weeks along, and honestly, how adorable is your daughter? With children like this, I say have 20. But then you may become that awkward TV special, so maybe 10 is a better number. Hope you'll continue to feel great!
http://achaiforme.blogspot.com
Awww that is all too cute! You look fabulous for being half way and just lovely in general. Eleanor is cute as can be and will probably be too cute as a big sister! Good luck with the rest of your pregnancy!

SO cute! My two are 16 months apart (2 and almost 8 mos, now). People make strange comments about how my hands are so full... but I say they are full of love. How exciting for you!
That's adorable about eleanor kissing the babies, so sweet! You look fantastic for being in your 20th week, I hope everything continues to go well :)

Congratulations!!! Our first two are close (15 months apart). I wouldn't have it any other way! They're inseparable.
You look fantastic! So happy for you and your family. I love reading your blog everyday and following you in your fun adventures. I love that the focus is family. Reading your blog always puts me in a good mood. Thanks for letting us into your world!
Hello from spain!!!! I read your blog every day and for me it is an fantastic break...
Big kisses!
cute cute cute! the photo, Eleanor kissing photos of babies...everything! It's great that you're not feeling sick this time around! :o)
heehee! this is one of my favorites of you two. i love the juxtaposition of your poses, both leaning different ways. it's like you're balancing each other out. what a good team. ;)
this is a fantastic pic!!
you are so perfect...and...i don't know...special...really special!!

you are so adorable!!!love this photo!
what an adorable bump!
Gosh, I can't believe Eleanor is going to be one soon!! I wish children can stop growing and stay young and cute forever!!
That is exciting though, that you're going to wait until the baby comes to find out if it's a boy or a girl! I don't know if I could last that long!! If I were pregnant, I mean.
Omg you and Eleanor are adorable!! You make me want to go for #3!! Love it!
you look lovely! my babes are 17 months apart. it was a little rough at the beginning, but they are so fun together now :) best of luck to you!
Love how Eleanor is peeking around in the pic. I can't believe she's almost a year old! I started following your blog just a couple weeks before she was born, being pregnant myself and appreciating a look at what was ahead for me. Hard to believe it's been a year. But I'll bet it's even harder for you. ;)
I didn't see it, if you already answered, but where is that amazing jacket from?! vintage? It's great.
I bet you are having a boy! I can't wait to see how you'll dress a baby boy... mini bow ties like josh's?!

Congratulations to you and your adorable family! :) We have 3 of our own, and you are right.. watching your first become a big sis is one of the funnest things to look forward too.
I absolutely adore you and your sense of style and design. If you are sharing, would you share where you purchased your fabulous shoes in this pic. They are just what I have been searching for.

The second pregnancy is so precious. Enjoy it while you can. My older 2 had the same age gap. I look back on it fondly. My 3 boys are now 7, 10 and 12. x
Where do you buy Eleanor's coats? I love the red one and they greyish one. I have a 1 year old and just cannot find a cute (and warm) coat for her.
You are so cute! Love the dress!
Jealous and very happy for you!! :-)
My twins were 17 months when my third was born. I love having them close in age, it gets better (and easier!) with each passing month. Congratulations!
I realize everyone is commenting about your babies, but where did you get your tights? I'm on the hunt for opaque red tights and you are wearing what I want!
this question is out of curiosity, not spite: Do you only answer a "where did you get that" question if more than one reader asks it?
That picture is so lovely you look amazing and are so stylish ! You make life beautiful and really, thank you for showing that :)
Good luck with the pregnancy, I really hope it's a boy :)
Congratulations. You're the coolest, most creative, colourful, vibrant mother ever!
HEY, i'll remember you when i become a mother (hopefully!)
Where do you shop for your little girl?! Her clothes are absolutely adorable! I cringe at putting my (future) babies in matchy-matchy Gymboree outfits and must take notes:)
Also, the chicness that you continue to be inspires me on my crummiest feeling of days. Thanks!
xo Taylor
@taylor, thanks! i shop for her everywhere. zara baby tends to be my favorite right now.
@mallosaurus, this is my first time getting to check these comments and respond. i try to respond to everyones comments but i'm sorry if i am not fast enough for you. there is only so much time in the day! to answer your other question, my dress is the airplane dress from Hatch Collection!
@maria o, tights where from anthropologie!
@electric fringe, the jacket is vintage. thanks!
@kia, her coat in this photo is from zara. her blue one is from a consignment shop in richmond.
and i think someone asked where my shoes were from but i can't find that comment? they are from ruche.
thanks for the nice comments all! we are so excited about this second bebe!
xo
Lovely photo !!! :) congrats!!
so cool!!! congratulations!
oh no you are fine! i'm sorry if i came off rude or impatient (i guess i am impatient!) I need to be more understanding... thanks for letting me know girl!
Awe! I love the pic! I'm at 22 weeks with my third but my youngest is only 15 months and my belly button popped out super early too! I think it is cause I'm pregnant again so soon! I was much less sick with this pregnancy, my oldest is a boy (4y), middle a girl (15mo) and we just found out that this one is a boy! Excited to keep up with your pregnancy :)

i'm catching up on your blog posts and it's so funny (at least to me) that things you're posting are the same things I think about my little girl and my current pregnancy. Like confusing our 18 month old by telling her about the baby in mommy's belly but also pointing to babies when we're out in public. She seems to think now that her belly has a baby. She pulls up her shirt and says "baby." She also puts her feet on the table like your sweet eleanor does. I'm sure these things are all common things but it's always nice to be able to relate to someone else.
So glad you're waiting to find out the sex. I wish more people would do that! It's probably the best surprise in the world.
You look great. My son is 1,5 year and i have a 10 week bump. Thought I´d be fast and agree on looking pregnant by 8th week
Greetings from Denmark/Pixi PR
You look great! It's so nice to see a happy growing family! :) also, I love your shoes... would you be able to tell me where you got them? I've been looking all over for cut out wedges like those!
