She does continue to be very active and elegant in her own dancerly way. (I'm supposed to "count kicks", but she never kicks. It's more like she mimes. Fortunately, any motion counts as what they call a "kick".) In the meantime, I finally stopped working due to inability to sleep. (I would have kept going because work is fun, but alas!)
Why am I telling you this? Because it explains why I've been so quiet lately. Being enormously pregnant is like having a second full time job. That said, I have no plans to become a different person. I still don't own a car, and I still believe that sustainable transportation will save the world. I'm also still taking pictures and thinking artsy thoughts as exhibited by the self-portrait above. I still love music. And I will continue to blog.
[Some words about the photo: I probably wouldn't wear a dress like this even without the additional weight and human life. But it arrived with my maternity hand-me-downs, and it seemed a shame to let it go to waste completely. So, I included it in my photo shoot the other weekend.]

As a visitor to your blog, your self-portrait is beautifully lit, calm and a wonderful summary as your life pivots.
Photos don't explain, they just show. Best wishes on the coming adventure.
My blog, "Put Carts on the Public Bus" laterally, addresses the issue of transporting yourself, your baby, your stroller, and a couple of bags of groceries.
A couple of months ago, I suspended the process of designing a cart adapter for the bus. Add one more design requirement: Board and transport both carts and strollers on the public bus.
Add in a rainy day and a slightly sick baby and you have what has been described as the ultimate test of a public transportation system.
