*also known as The Most Heinous Postpartum Photo Ever Taken Of Anyone On The Face Of The Earth EVER. But it's Christmas, so have a hearty laugh slash gasp of horror on me.

Oh holy night, these are amazing. Four months is my favorite!!
I LOVE the one for 8 months!! That's a keeper as far as I'm concerned. And the 9 months face?? You better get used to that one for the teenage years! LOL Thanks for sharing
You want to talk heinous? You should have a post where people post links to their first post-labor picture. Mine would frighten small children (and adults too). My face was bloated to 3 times it's size thanks to all the iv fluids I got during labor. I forgot to wear waterproof mascara. There was blood and schmutz (sp?) all over my hospital gown. You get the picture.
Emily, you are hilarious! Loved both sets of pictures!! I'm sure if I EVER have a child and my husband is brave enough to snap a shot after squeezing something the size of a watermelon out of something the size of a walnut, well... I can imagine the picture will not be pretty! so thanks for sharing :D
I was going to go all MEAN MOMMY! on you, but you're right, that IS the most heinous postpartum photo ever and with that, maybe you have made up for the blow out photo. STILL. When Lucy finds out about this post, tell her Auntie Maggie will take her in.
Long-time lurker here, delurking. This. This is why I love you so much. Because I have a post-partum pic that looks almost identical, but I can't say that I would ever be brave enough to post it. Glad to know I'm not the only one who doesn't look picture perfect after giving birth. Good grief...
Eight month picture--I'll put $5 on the spunky little one in the pink kitty outfit! He may have size and strength, but something tells me she'll be running the show somewhere down the line!
Oh!!! This is SO FUNNY! Great idea. And I have the most heinous post-partum photos ever in history, not you! Way to skip the makeup for baby's trip home MANDA.
(Nine months is my fave, btw. I can tell that Lu will TOTALLY fit in with us eye-rolling broads over here. Hee!)
Awesome! Thanks Emily. :) 9 months - the look on her face is awesome. She probalby wasn't making that face intending it to imply 'all the derision in the world' but is sure looks that way. Too funny. Merry Christmas to you and your family, as well.
This is a truly wonderful post. What a novel idea to post the outtakes! I LOVE it! Makes me want to stop deleting the "bad" pictures, because really, they're pretty fun too! You made my day :-)

That is . . . not the most flattering photo of a new mom that I've ever seen. But those thighs at 8 months have me saying NOM NOM NOM!

7 months and 9 months are classics!

Hilarious! And everything about the 9 months shot is just perfect :)

Love this post! Especially in comparison to yesterday's photos - what a great idea to show out-takes. Thanks for the laughter - she's still adorable!

Oh Emily, I laughed out loud. Awesome.
Also, ten months? Shocking similarity:
