Dreary day out there…
But that’s okay because I love rainy weather. By far the best type!
Especially when you wake up before the alarm and get to spend a few minutes awake in bed… with tea… and toast… on a weekday. Trying to soak this laziness up as much as I can before BabyHTP arrives. Although – maybe BabyHTP will become a lazy toddler who likes to lay in bed in the mornings, too? Does that ever happen?! Or do I have to wait until teenage years? Hah.
Plus fruit.
While sipping the tea, we reminisced about our last trip to London (we’re thinking about taking the baby to Europe next Christmas so he or she can meet the Husband’s grandparents). If you ever go to London, I HIGHLY recommend going to tea time at The Ritz. It’s a really cool experience – honestly, it’s probably the best tourist thing that I’ve ever done in London.
We were so ridiculously high on sugar and caffeine and carbs by the time we left.
I make a pretty good cup of tea… but The Ritz kind of blows me out of the water.

I really think BabyHTP is a girl. I’m getting so excited for you! My husband and I are still a couple years away from starting our family, but I’m your age, and your bravery in taking this next step has been so amazing. I, too, feel like I’m in the nebulous stage where all our friends are married, but not many have decided to take the leap into parenthood. I love your attitude–take one day at a time, do the best you can to prepare, don’t panic. It’s so hard to tell when my husband and I will feel ready, but I’ve learned from you that there’s no perfect time, and at a certain point, you just have to decide that you’re ready enough. You and Kristien will be great parents!
