Photo Essay: A very merry Joshua Tree birthday

Posted by betsydionne on December 20, 2015

Just a few shots from my friend Chelsea’s birthday weekend at Joshua Tree. We had so much fun climbing I barely took any pictures. I think these few sum up the weekend pretty well.

Officially 40 weeks today! No signs that she will make her debut. Did you know the average first time mom gives birth at 41 weeks and 3 days? Babies are not “late” they usually just are waiting till they are good and ready to come out! I can’t believe there are going to be three of us soon! 🧡💛❤️#inspiredpregnancy #outdoormamas #fitpregnancy

Just about a week to go! I’m working hard on staying focused and calm but I’m so excited! I know childbirth is different for everyone, there is no normal, and there is no right way to bring a baby into this world. I can still have goals for my birth experience though and I must say I’m pretty excited to go through the process. I’m preparing for birth in the same way I prepare for a hiking a big peak. I know it’s going to be hard, I know I may hit a wall, but I also know I have the power to keep going. I am strong and capable, and at the end all the blood, sweat, and tears will be worth it. #39weekspregnant #inspiredpregnancy

There is less than four weeks to go to when little baby squishy is expected to enter this world. I’m so excited to meet her! We spent last weekend moving into our new home and I’m in full on nesting mode. If you would have told me three years ago this is where I would be right now I would probably have laughed. What my life looks like is changing but I’m so excited for that change. I went back to look at my Passion Planner from last year and three of my big goals were to buy a house, get pregnant, and travel to Scotland. Well now I’ve gotten those out of the way! Looking forward to new goals and new adventures💕

Taking life slow and in stride these past few weeks. We are preparing to move into our first home, getting ready for baby, trying to wrap up work projects, and still trying to make time for fun. I’m appreciating this little life I have so much lately, and I’m so excited to start a family. Also pregnancy has clearly made me overly sappy 😜don’t hate, just blame the hormones! 📸- @sherrockjs

New post on the blog about a hidden jem of a spot, the Santa Rosa Plateau. It is the perfect place for a mellow family hike, where you can learn all about the history and biology of this special place. link in profile #santarosaplateau #riversidecounty #socalhiking

I’ve been thinking about how life has prepared us for having a baby. I don’t think you can ever really be prepared for such a huge change, but life does teach you how to role with the punches and deal with stress. For example this photo was taken on a trip to Death Valley where we got a flat in the middle of nowhere without the right tools to fix it. We figured it out, as a team, and now it’s a great story. I remember on that misadventure telling @sherrockjs if we can do this we can handle a baby. I know becoming parents will be challenging but I can’t think of anyone I would rather do it with. We got this. I can’t wait to meet our little one. 💕
