Love her charming color combos.

Old Maid

I am strangely comfortable being one.

Spent my 32nd birthday indoors, rotting at the St. Regis at Dana Point with le hubby. (Thank you, cub.) T'was a most divine weekend filled with good eats. Michael Mina lobster pot pie, root beer floats, warm chocolate-chip cookies. My hubby knows how to treat a fat lady. Sure beats the meals of McNuggets I'd been ingesting the week prior!

Le hubs and I imagine we won't be able to easily pick and go for spontaneous getaways once the womb raider decides to make her much-anticipated grand appearance. That said, we've been savoring each and every minute of alone time we could...

Fluff

in celebration of my 32nd birthday, le hubby bought me the robe of my dreams.

it's completely age-appropriate.

baby-blue goodness covered with smiley clouds.

i wish i could wear it to work.

Nice View

i don't care what the doctors say.
my baby is peeking at all of you through my belly button.
fyi, my belly button is at crotch level.

more doodles from my crash-course birthing class.

Crash Course

Because le hubby's work schedule is very demanding, we have not been able to attend couples' birthing classes that so many other concerned, caring parents do. Luckily, the hospital at which we plan to squeeze our peanut out at had the option of a one-day "crash course" birthing class... We attended it last weekend with glee and left having learned way too much, yet still not enough.

Not wanting to miss out on the gems dispersed by our teacher, Magda, I took a copious amount of notes. Ahh...

Yes We Can

Um, believe it. I just ordered these crazy-cute leggings online for Ankle-Biter Huang. Baby girl needs Stella McCartney pants. STAT.
