We are officially under 4 weeks until our due date and while people loveeeee to tell a pregnant woman that her pregnancy "has just flown by!" I can assure you that I've been with child for at least 97 weeks :) Last August, when we found out, feels like an eternity ago.
As of Friday, I was 1cm dilated which was very exciting news.
I was chatting with a friend of mine who recently had a baby about how sick I am of leggings and sweatshirts (pretty much all I can fit into right now!) and she suggested treating myself to a dress I'm excited to wear postpartum so that I have something to look forward to. That day I ordered a beautiful navy and white Indian block-print caftan from Emerson Fry after she told me she lived in hers with her newborn.
One of the things I always miss most about living in the city is my regular Hillstone dates with girlfriends. Yes, Hillstone. I also miss all of our small favorite restaurants but Hillstone will always have a place in my heart. I have many a memory of meeting friends there for dirty martinis and a hodgepodge of spinach artichoke dip, yellowtail sashimi salad, and french fries after work...
Anel and I are off today on a little two-night babymoon to Rhode Island. I'm so excited to do absolutely nothing but with a beautiful backdrop. We don't have a single plan and that's exactly how I wanted it. We thought it was important to have a few days alone to relax outside of our home before our life changes forever!
