Jennifer Love Hewitt is reminiscing about the days when her life was about to change forever.
The 39-year-old actress took to Instagram on Thursday to share a sweet throwback photo of herself from her first pregnancy. Hewitt, who gave birth to daughter Autum in 2013, holds her arms across her chest as she poses on her profile in the pic, showing off her bare baby bump.
"#tbt First pic my husband took of me pregnant. I was 14 weeks and had no idea how much my body would change. Life would change and my heart would grow," she captioned the black-and-white shot. "The best thing I have ever done will always be marrying him, having our kids and watching them change and grow everyday. #grateful #happymommy #happywifey #luckygirl #mylittlefamily."
Hewitt married her Client List co-star, Brian Hallisay, in 2013, just before welcoming Autumn into the world. The couple became parents for the second time when Hewitt gave birth to son Atticus in 2015.
The actress has taken a step away from the spotlight in recent years to raise her children, but will return to TV with a role on Fox's9-1-1 this fall.

MILLCREEK, Utah — Salt Lake City Police have released body camera footage from an incident at a Millcreek gas station in which an officer attempted to apprehend a man.
According to Capt. Jeff Kendrick of SLCPD's Liberty Patrol Division, the incident occurred shortly after 2 p.m. on November 3 at a gas station near 1100 E 3300 S.
The officer was on his way to respond to a report of vandalism when he ran a routine license plate check. According to Capt. Kendrick, the license plate check showed that the plate belonged to a vehicle registered by 36-year-old Robert C. Ortega.
Ortega was wanted for a board of pardons warrant for aggravated sexual abuse of a child, a first-degree felony.
The body cam video shows the officer following and approaching Ortega at the gas station before attempting to take him into custody.
At one point, the officer deployed a stun gun in an attempt to subdue Ortega, but the stun gun apparently had little to no effect.
In the video, Ortega is seen entering a red car as the officer continued to stop Ortega from fleeing. At one point, the officer drew his gun and pointed it at Ortega.
"Do you want to get f---ing shot?" the officer yelled before quickly holstering the weapon.
The video shows Ortega fleeing the gas station in the car as the officer briefly draws his weapon again.
The officer then used his police radio to report Ortega's location and direction of travel to dispatchers.
Unified Police officers apprehended Ortega and booked him into jail on November 5.
At some point during the incident, a Salt Lake City officer fired a shot, according to Kendrick.
Unified Police captured Ortega on November 5, and they're also conducting an investigation of the November 3 incident.
SLCPD's internal affairs division and Salt Lake City's civilian review board are also conducting their own separate investigations.
Donald Trump has informed the Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas that he intends to make the highly controversial move of switching the US Embassy in Israel from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem, Abbas's spokesman said.
'President Mahmoud Abbas received a telephone call from US President Donald Trump in which he notified the President (Abbas) of his intention to move the American embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem,' spokesman Nabil Abu Rdainah said in a statement reported by Reuters.
ReutersU.S. President Donald Trump and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu shake hands after Trump's address at the Israel Museum in Jerusalem May 23, 2017.
The statement did not say whether Trump elaborated on the timing of such a move, though more reports and perhaps a statement are expected in the coming hours.
'President Abbas warned of the dangerous consequences such a decision would have to the peace process and to the peace, security and stability of the region and of the world,' Abu Rdainah said.
The apparent move, almost universally seen as a set-back for the region's dormant peace process, follows several years of speculation, and comes after Trump was under competing international pressures today over whether unilaterally to recognise Jerusalem as the capital of Israel and whether to move the embassy.
The leaders of Turkey and US allies Saudi Arabia and France urged the US President not to make the highly controversial moves which would infuriate the Palestinians in the sensitive region, while evangelical Christians and Israelis lobbied for the change amid confusion after Trump appeared to miss the deadline for the embassy shift on Monday.
The US, the UN and almost every country in the world currently refuse to accept that Jerusalem is Israel's capital, with most major embassies functioning in the sea-side business capital, Tel Aviv. International consensus is that East Jerusalem is occupied territory, just like the West Bank.
While Israel considers Jerusalem its 'eternal, undivided capital', the Palestinians regard the east of the city – occupied by Israel in the 1967 Six Day War – to be the capital of any future Palestinian state.
Critics said that Trump's proposals would further threaten a two-state solution to which the agreed division of Jerusalem would be key.
ReutersThe divided city of Jerusalem, central to any solution between Israel and the Palestinians.
The debate about the embassy's location goes back to 1995, when the US Congress approved the Jerusalem Embassy Act, which requires that the American embassy be moved from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem.
Since then, successive US presidents – both Democratic and Republican – have exercised a waiver delaying its implementation every six months on national security grounds, and official US policy does not recognise Jerusalem as Israel's capital.
There has been speculation for the past two years about whether Trump would fulfill his campaign promise to make the move, as well as recognise Jerusalem as Israel's capital. Some reports say the Trump will dramatically shift the US position on the status of Jerusalem this week.
Today, the Turkish president Recep Tayyip Erdogan said such a move would cross a 'red line' for Muslims.
'Mr Trump! Jerusalem is a red line for Muslims,' Mr Erdogan said in a televised speech on Tuesday.
And it emerged that in a phone call with Trump yesterday, the French president Emmanuel Macron expressed similar thoughts, according to a readout provided by the French Foreign Ministry which said Macron shared his concern about the possibility that the US might unilaterally recognise Jerusalem as the capital of Israel.
Macron reportedly reaffirmed the standard international position that the status of Jerusalem should be resolved through peace negotiations between Israelis and Palestinians, 'and particularly those relating to the establishment of two states, Israel and Palestine, living side by side in peace and security with Jerusalem as their capital,' the statement said.
However, in the US a group of evangelical Christians said they are praying that Trump will move the embassy.

ASPEN, Colo. --The Aspen-Pitkin County Airport remained closed Monday night and there was no timetable for when it would reopen following the crash of a private jet Sunday.
The wreckage of the plane remained on the runway as officials from the National Transportation Safety Board began their investigation Monday.
The copilot of the 22-seat Bombardier Challenger 600 was killed. He's identified as Emilio Carranza Brabata, 54, of Mexico. Two other men on the plane, Miguel Angel Henriquez and Moises Carranza Brabata, also of Mexico were injured and in St. Mary's Hospital in Grand Junction Monday.
All three men are pilots and they were the only people on board. The survivors have moderate to severe traumatic injuries.
Buses carried about 200 stranded passengers from Aspen to Denver International Airport Monday. The first four outbound flights from Aspen were canceled Tuesday. Buses were scheduled to leave for Denver at 7:00, 8:00 and 9:00 a.m.
The plane burst into flames when it crashed while landing Sunday afternoon according to the Pitkin County Sheriff's Office.
The pilot of the twin-engine jet earlier reported high winds during a previous attempt to land, according to a recording of the air traffic control radio transmission. The crash occurred about 12:23 p.m. as they came in for another try.
"Missed approach, N115WF. 33 knots of tail wind," the pilot is heard saying a few minutes before the crash.
The aircraft flipped over on impact and became fully engulfed in flames, police said.
According to the flight tracking website Flightaware.com, the aircraft was on a flight from Tucson, Ariz.
"Right now, we have no indication that there was anything wrong prior to landing. However, we do have investigators on scene," PCSO spokesman Alex Burchetta said.
Multiple witnesses tweeted about seeing the accident. Celebrities Kevin Nealon and LeAnn Rimes Cibrian were both apparently in the area.
Many pilots consider the airport a challenging destination due to the surrounding mountains. A private jet crash at the airport in 2001 killed all 18 people aboard.
Horrible plane crash here at Aspen airport. Exploded into flames as it was landing. I think it was a private jet.
Fly into Eagle with the massive runway instead of this place.
^ you are a freakin’ IDIOT!
Obviously since they were flying in a private jet they have more money, they were smarter than you! You are talking about a dead man, a human being!
My heartfelt prayers and may we consider: Accidents only proves you’re human.
lift and stall. Any student pilot knows that.
@ Micsull: as a Certified Flight Instructor who has some familiarity with KASE, you would be wise to check the AF/D and get your facts straight prior to assigning blame on the PIC. Due to noise abatement procedures this PIC may have had only one choice for a landing direction. Granted a diversion to KEGE would have been a prudent decision; however, neither of us are privy to the PIC’s decisions made prior to the second landing attempt. As a professional pilot you should allow the NTSB to do their work and refrain from making uninformed and quite insulting judgments.
I think it was President Obama’s fault. Am I correct Righties?
Repeated reports of wind shear on frequency.
The plane has a 10 kt tailwind restriction. The pilot acknowledged the there was a 30 kt tailwind, and still attempted to land. A diversion should had been made.
It appears from the tower tape the decision had been made to stop arrivals with 3 on approach.
Eagle handles 727’s in any wind. Those bozos at Aspen should have made him turn north, he got blown right off the approach.
The pilot made the wrong decision. Why we may never know. With over 17,000 hrs. of flight time I have to admit to I have made more than one bad call. Too bad it happened and it will happen again no matter how much flight time you have pilots are often under pressure to the demands of others or desire to prove themselves.
Good bless them and them families. Dios los bendiiga a Ellos y sus familias.
RIP and may the injured men heal quickly. Prayers to all family and friends.
John Moorhead comment re altitude. it is closer to 7,000, not 700. Re John Denver – he lived in Aspen but the private plane he was piloting went down in the ocean. Don’t know why discussion with tower and pilot wouldn’t have directed them to Eagle. Sardy Field is not a place to chance it.
I hear customs and DEA stripped the plane in Tucson when the final destination was logged to Aspen. Dogs big time.
I am very sorry to hear about this terrible accident. Who were they flying into Aspen and pick? Sounds like the pilots were under some kind of pressure to pick someone up?
Their flight originated in Mexico City, stopped in Tucson then on to Aspen. The plane holds 22 passengers so anyone’s guess on who they were picking up. You can bet it was some wealthy aristocrats from Mexico’s upper crust or drug dealers???. Aspen is full of world travelers at Xmas time. See and be seen crowd, most with their noses higher than the Rockies. I still love Aspen – you just have to avoid the chosen ones. In retrospect, they should have flown into Eagle in the Vail Valley, some 70 minutes from Aspen.and a much safer airport.
Game and 50 Cent haven't spoken in years, but that doesn't mean that a possible collaboration is totally out of the question. The BoomBox caught up with Game, who is currently working on his upcoming release 'The R.E.D. Album,' and with a new outlook on both life and his career, the Compton native explained that when it comes to 50, he's ready to put the past behind him.
"You know what? I think that's up to 50 these days," he told The BoomBox about getting together with the Queens rapper for a track. "I'm up for anything. I love making music. I'm in a space in my life that I feel good about everything. I ain't got no problems with nobody, unless you pick a fight with me then I gotta come in lyrically and expunge that problem. But other than that, I'm coming in with smiles on my face every day, chilling with my kids, going in the studio with my homies and trying to finish my project."
The feud between Game and 50 started back in 2005, when Game was signed to the same label as 50, the Dr. Dre-helmed Aftermath, and placed into G-Unit. His debut, 'The Documentary,' heavily featured 50, including the track 'Hate It or Love It,' and as a result 50's own album 'The Massacre' was put on the back-burner. While it seemed 50 genuflected to the Game, letting him into his hip-hop scene, Game wasn't exactly reciprocating the favor. He refused to partake in several G-Unit feuds and beefs with rappers like Ja Rule, Fat Joe and Jadakiss, but continued to ride on the success of the 'The Documentary,' which 50 felt he deserved more writing credit for, as well as the street cred of being a G-Unit member. The tension and jealousy eventually led to 50 denouncing Game from the G-Unit crew. Game retaliated with the stellar diss '300 Bars and Runnin'' and 50 followed suit with 'Piggy Bank.' The rest is hip-hop history.
Game has made several attempts to squash the beef with 50, most recently last November when he posted a Twitter message attempting to reunite with the Queens rapper and gave a shout out to all the G-Unit members. "@50cent Aye n----, get on Twitter & let's get this s--- movin!!! G-G-G-G- well, you know the rest," Game tweeted. "All it take is 'ONE PHONE CALL'! U call me, I call BUCK, tell Banks holla at [Tony] Yayo & dat puts HIP HOP @ OUR MERCY!" Banks apparently holla-ed at Yayo, and Yayo didn't exactly come back with open arms. His reaction was ""F--- a G Unit Reunion N----."
Unfortunately, 50 was not feeling the Twitter love either. He not only brushed off Game's advances, but stated that their communication remains non-existent. "What are you guys talking about?" he tweeted in response to Game's post. "I dont talk to game. I have had no communication with him in years."
Throughout his career, 50 has had beef with tons of rappers but rarely calls a truce. In the case of Game, 50 exclusively told The BoomBox, that he is fine with ignoring his former protege, and anyone else who rubs him the wrong way. "If you just came out of nowhere, then I'mma assume that I can't fix that with a conversation, or that that's who you are," 50 told The BoomBox. "I'm fine with not paying them any attention at that point.
So while it seems that Game can drop the idea of a makeup session, we've gotta give it to him for being the bigger person in the argument, but he can pretty much bet that a phone call from 50 Cent won't be coming through anytime soon.
The Nazis won the elections in 1932. Salvodor Allende, a Marxist, won the elections in Chile in 1970. And now Islamist Mohammad Morsi, a leader of the Muslim Brotherhood, won the presidential election in Egypt.
These events reveal two facts. First, devoted missionaries of liberal democracy were wrong in their naive belief that the overthrow of bloody Arab dictators would bring freedom and liberty to oppressed people. The problem is that the people themselves don't share these values. Take, for example, a survey by the polling agency Free Egyptians in which an overwhelming majority of Egyptians supported the terrorist attacks against the United States on 9/11.
While free elections brought Hamas, a terrorist organization, to power in the Palestinian Authority, elections in countless African and South American countries have been won by cannibals and terrorists alike.
How can I respect the people's choice if the people choose Hitler or Morsi? How can I respect the choice of the Palestinian people if they choose Hamas? The organization wants Israel to be wiped off the map. Meanwhile, an 8-year-old Arab girl recently wrote in a United Nations-sponsored journal that her dream is to embrace her hero, Hitler, because he killed more than 6 million Jews. Should I respect these "voices of the people"?
If elections had been held in the Soviet Union in 1952, do you think anyone but Josef Stalin would have won?
Free elections are great tools in the West, when the people choose, for example, between Republicans and Democrats in the United States or Liberals and Conservatives in Britain. But in the Arab Middle East, elections aren't such a good idea. There, the people's will is solely responsible for bringing to power the third form of totalitarianism to appear after the Nazis and Communists: religious totalitarianism.
Hoping that Egyptian President Mohammad Morsi will not universally introduce Sharia law is like hoping that Allende would not build socialism. How could it be otherwise if that is exactly what he promised to do, he was elected for that purpose, and the influential groups supporting him are intent on that goal?
Of course, the Egyptian military can overthrow Morsi in the same way that General Augusto Pinochet overthrew Allende.
Or else Morsi will get rid of his military by sending it on a hopeless and deadly war against Israel and paving the way for a loyal military to be formed in its place.
Or perhaps Morsi will imprison his top adversaries in the military as the Turkish Islamists imprisoned theirs.
Or else the Egyptian military will stage a junta and overthrow Morsi. If this happens, hopefully the West will regard the military not as servants of the former tyrant, but as the better of two evils — the only force in Egypt that is capable of resisting violent Islamic radicalism.
As for me, I hope that Arab people everywhere will start building the Kingdom of Allah on Earth as soon as possible. The sooner it is erected, the sooner it will collapse. It was the same with communism. It was only when Soviet leaders actually tried to build communism that all of its myths were completely dispelled.
Sometimes you have to build a system to kill it.
