Waiting .... waiting... waiting...

Giving women a specific due date as to when their baby should arrive can be a bit torturous as the date draws near.  Not only do you feel less than fabulous with the added weight during the last month and frequent trips to the bathroom, the anticipation of when the baby will come is enough to challenge even the calmest of individuals.

So, in my last week of waiting, I tried to maintain some sanity by doing the following:

Checking out the animals as the Safari Park,

 Enjoying time with Andy and Harrison,

Eating this deliciously healthy serving of fried foods on the patio at Torrey Pines,

Soaking in the sun and palms at the gym,

 Relishing in time spent just with Harrison,

(pictured here with his new backpack from Gigi)

 Walking on the beach,

and eating out as much as possible (I love the expressions in this photo taken at my favorite breakfast spot, Swammy's)
