I’ve known Lara since our high school, Freshman year Biology class. That was almost 15 years ago!! It is surreal for me that I am actually posting these photos. So much time has passed and our friendship has stayed just as strong ever since we were teenagers. I am beaming from ear to ear for her and Louis as they expect their first child: baby girl Olivia. 

Lara is my first really close friend to be pregnant. I get to ask her all the crazy intrusive questions I have about pregnancy, nesting and motherhood. Thanks for going first love (hehe). We woke up early and snapped a few images on the beach on Marco Island. The way that Louis looked at her all morning might be my favorite thing about these images. Here are some of my favorites from the day!
