Pregnant mom takes amazing picture — but look who shows up to the right

For parents-to-be, taking pictures of the expectant mother’s baby bump and documenting the pregnancy is a great way of capturing the joy and excitement of starting a new family.

For the rest of their lives, the couple can flip through their maternity pictures and remember the time just before they welcomed their beloved child into their lives.

And while all pictures of pregnant woman are beautiful in their own way, some are simply more memorable than others…

Beach in Jacksonville, Florida and take some pictures.

The beach is loved by locals and is a popular place to relax, go for a stroll, and take pictures.

Suddenly, Dan felt inspired and asked his wife, Angelina, to pose for some pictures with the ocean as a background.

He picked up his camera and snapped some pictures.

With a big smile on her face, Angelina stood in front of the ocean waves and showed off her baby bump.

But when Dan saw what was in the background, he immediately realized that he’d taken the picture of a lifetime…

What was it that showed up at the perfect moment behind Angelina?

A dolphin, which leaped out of the water just as Dan was snapping the picture!

Dan knew there were dolphins in the area, so it wasn’t completely unexpected. But he never thought he’d actually catch one jumping in the background of a picture of his pregnant wife.

“When I took it, I was like, ‘Oh, my God!’ Unfortunately, she totally missed it,” Dan told AWM.

Dan and Angelina credit their son, Courtland, who was born on January 27th, for the picture. The couple joke that Courtland summoned the dolphin from his mother’s belly.

Dan explained to Yahoo a little more about how the amazing picture came about: “Someone started yelling to us that there were dolphins, and we could see their dorsal fins. Then, out of nowhere, this thing just jumps out of the water.”

Maybe the dolphin knew what was going on?

“The dolphin actually jumped twice, but I liked the first jump picture best,” Dan said.

Although Courtland seems to be dolphin whisperer, Angelina and Dan aren’t going to change his name. Dan confirmed, “No, we’re not changing his name, as some have suggested, to Dolph Finn.”

MY MIL “ACCIDENTALLY” DROPPED OUR GENDER REVEAL CAKE – BUT HER SMILE TOLD A DIFFERENT STORY. When I say my MIL ruins milestones, I’m not exaggerating. She wore white to our wedding (“It’s cream”), posted our pregnancy before we could, and blurted our baby name to her bridge group—then “forgot” it was a secret. So for our gender reveal, I kept things small. Honestly, I didn’t even want to invite her. But my husband said, “She means well. She won’t ruin a simple cake-cutting.” Oh, how wrong we were. We hosted it in our backyard—close friends, family, pink-and-blue treats, and a gorgeous cake with the big reveal inside. Jenny, my SIL, picked it up right before the event. Everything was perfect. Then MIL arrived—late, wearing hot pink (subtle), fake air kisses, and circling the cake like a vulture. “It’s so tall,” she said. “Are you sure it’s stable?” Then—right as we were about to cut the cake, cameras ready—she lunged forward. “Oh no, I’ll just move it a little closer—” The cake toppled. Smashed. Frosting and layers everywhere. Gasps. Silence. And MIL? Standing there, hands over her mouth, smiling. Not a big grin—just enough to say, “Oops… guess it’s a girl! Granny knew first!” I turned away, fighting tears. One moment. Just one memory she couldn’t ruin. AND THAT’S WHEN IT HAPPENED. My SIL, Jenny, burst out laughing. “Just like I expected.” She went to her car… and came back with a BOX. ⬇️

MY EX-HUSBAND’S WIFE THREW MY DAUGHTER’S SEWING MACHINE IN THE POOL – I DIDN’T THINK TWICE ABOUT STANDING UP FOR MY DAUGHTER. I (46) am a mother to my 16-year-old daughter, Rachel. She usually lives with me but occasionally stays with her dad and stepmother, whom she despises for being controlling and cruel. Rachel’s stepmother enforces strict rules and gives her no allowance. When her dad refused to help financially, Rachel got a job to save for her dream sewing machine. Rachel worked hard, and I doubled her savings to help her buy the machine. She was thrilled and spent her free time sewing, hoping to turn it into a career. But her stepmother was furious, claiming it was a distraction from chores. After an argument with her for not washing the plates, she THREW Rachel’s sewing machine INTO THE POOL as punishment. Rachel called me, devastated. I immediately went to confront her stepmother, who said she was just teaching Rachel responsibility. Furious, I took Rachel home and decided to teach my ex’s wife a lesson. The next day, her screams made it clear she realized how badly she’d been tricked. What she discovered the next morning left her screaming—keep reading.
