I was introduced to the coolest IPhone app this week called Hipstamatic. These photos were all taken on my phone and there was no need to edit or alter them, because this app did it for me. It is such a fun toy.
This first photo is taken from my perspective, looking down at Kestan. Yes, that is my belly. Yes, there is a baby in there. Yes, Kestan is trying to see the baby.
"I want to see my baby."
"I want to kiss my baby."
"I want to tickle my baby!"
I thought it was appropriate to share my exciting news with you as I celebrate my 100th blog post. In honor of baby #2, I feel a gift is in order!
Along with making a baby human, I'm also creating a new e-course that I'll be launching in a few short months. Would you like to enter for a chance to win a spot? I can't tell you what it is yet, but I'll give you a hint - it's fun, it's playful, it's creative, it's messy and it will be a great way to enjoy the lazy, breezy days of summer. (I also plan on announcing Inside Out e-course dates soon.)

Your Personal Reflection: What's your reason to celebrate today?

ReplyDeletemy reason to celebrate today - I guess my birthday counts :)
Happy news!! I'm so excited for you!! BIG congratulations :D & Kestan is so cute :)
ReplyDeleteMy reason to celebrate? In this BEAUTIFUL spring weather, I'm spending glorious days outside with my not-such-a-baby-anymore & generally feeling really really happy - for no apparent reason! If that's not cause to celebrate being alive, I don't know what is :)
What wonderful news and I would be thrilled to be entered to win your new e-course.
ReplyDeleteMy reason to celebrate? Our health. I feel really blessed that me and my family are healthy.
Thanks,
Tricia
Congratulations!!!!
ReplyDeleteMy reason to celebrate? I woke up this morning with my daughter crawling in my bed to snuggle and her scent, her hair, her little hands....
How exciting! That's wonderful news. I'm celebrating the newness of Spring and how I love the smell of the air just after it rains. I'm celebrating sitting on the back patio last night with a glass of yummy chocolate stout, painting and doodling while talking with my favorite guy in the world.
ReplyDeleteHi,
ReplyDeleteCongrats on baby #2...woo hoo!! Looking forward to seeing what your next course is about.

Congratulations!!!! How sweet are these photos of Kestan....
ReplyDeleteMy reason to celebrate? Waking up to a beautiful Spring day and the ability to practice yoga this morning with a strong and healthy body.
Wow! Congratulations!!!!! That IS a fantastic reason to celebrate!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations! I hope you are feeling good. You must be with the energy you show.
ReplyDeleteMy reason to celebrate today - breezy, low 70s. Spring.
Dear Shannon,
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful news! I'm so HAPPY for you! Having a second child is such a wonderful experience (as having a first one, a third one, and so on! lol)! Wow!!! And a new e-course on top of that? That is so very exciting!! I would love to be part of the game again this time, one way or the other!
A reason for me to celebrate? Spring time, quiet and peaceful time with my kids at home, practicing yoga and working on my personnal projects.
Congratulations again!
Big hug and kisses,
M
Congrats, Congrats, Congrats!!! SO exciting. That is one of my favorite announcements ever, when someone says they're pregnant!
ReplyDeleteI wish it to be a blissful journey for you (for the 2nd time)!
Today I celebrate...because I can. So I celebrate the sun that is shining today, despite the forecast of clouds. I celebrate the freedom to be me in a fairly quiet and slow office today. I celebrate being ALIVE and LIFE in general!
Congrats again!!
Oh wow, CONGRATULATIONS!!! So exciting! I bet you are the cutest pregnant lady ever. :)
ReplyDeleteI can't wait to hear about your new e-course, as well. I really want to take one of yours, the timing just hasn't been quite right yet. (In 2010, I've learned that taking on too many "inner self" projects at one time is exhausting, overwhelming, and counterproductive for me.) But I bet summer would be a perfect time for an e-course!
thank heavens there is a wee human in your belly !! I was thinking you had been eating waaaay to many apple pies!!!
ReplyDeleteOh Kestan will be so excited!!
I have a huge reason to celebrate today .. my own little baby human 'THE VIKING" turns 3 today!!!! yay!!!
Happy Birthday Zackary!!!
Congrats on baby #2 being on the way and all the beauty and joy of being pregnant!
ReplyDeleteMy reason to celebrate today is the joy of getting the chance to see the beauty of nature this morning after returning from dropping off my daughter to school I saw a hummingbird feeding on our roses and salvia bush, Ahh spring is here!!
Congratulations!!! That is so exciting!
ReplyDeleteMy reason to celebrate is that the weekend is near! Also, I am looking forward to your new new course! I really hope to be able to take this one!

a perfect reason to celebrate- the look of joy on my daughters face when she got her balance on her bike and I let go.....
ReplyDeleteAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH!!!!! OMG OMG OMG OMG! That's FANTASTIC news. Yippeeeeeee! So very, very excited. And it occurs to me now that those yoga videos must not be recent....... :)
ReplyDeleteOhmygoodness, Shannon, congratulations!! Best wishes for a happy, well second pregnancy & delivery--and a sweet new family member at the end of the journey!!
ReplyDeleteI'm excited to learn more about your new e-course, too. :)
Congratulations Shannon, I'm not sure how or why but I 'knew' you were pregnant although I'm not sure how.... Anyway, my reason to celebrate today is that I finally got over a horrible visit to a hairdressers here about a year ago by going into a new one and making an appointment. Might not sound like a big thing but to me it's a huge step. :-)
ReplyDeleteWonderful news Shannon, congratulations!
ReplyDeleteKestan tickling his baby makes me tear up w/joy. I'm also celebrating spring, and listening to Billie Holiday on Pandora.com:)
ReplyDeleteFantastic! Yay for your family. I am celebrating Friday and giving my all to the children I worked with this week. :)
ReplyDeleteSounds intriguing! Who could pass up an offer of a secret giveaway? Thanks for your generous offer.
ReplyDeleteI would love to win (and will likely be in the course no matter what!!). Give that growing belly a love rub for me!
ReplyDeleteToday I am continuing to celebrate my baby girl's 1st birthday, which was yesterday. Can't believe it's been a year!
Congratulations to you & the family Shannon. Beautiful news! Hmmm my reason to celebrate is just the simple pleasure of being home with my family on a glorious sunny autumn day, no plans, just precious family time. hxxx
ReplyDeletecongratulations!!! so excited for you!

ReplyDeleteAh, lovely news Shannon. Congratulations! Looking forward to learning more about your new summer course. Today I met someone who I have known for many years but had sadly forgotten about. She's very special and I love her dearly. So I'm celebrating finding her again. Who is this person? It's me.
ReplyDeleteI know I'm too late, but I can't help but tell you that Hipstamatic ROCKS! Oh, and I am celebrating my new goals!
ReplyDeleteCute photos! Congratulations mama :)
