The Best Kind of Advice

When pregnant, it seems like EVERYONE wants to give you their advice/horror stories/words of wisdom - all of it! I know that I have a lot to learn, and I actually do like listening and learning. I CERTAINLY know that it's not going to be easy (and may not even be that fun at first), but I don't necessarily want to spend my day dreading my baby's arrival :-) Therefore, I like the kind of advice that makes me laugh the best!!!

Our Trip in Pictures

We had a great time on our trip to San Francisco and Yosemite National Park!!!

Here are a few pictures from our travels...

Of course we had to visit the Golden Gate Bridge!

Then we headed over to Lombard Street - "The Crookedest Street" in the World.

We took a great tour of Alcatraz Island,

and saw the Sea Lions at Pier 39...

We ate a yummy dessert at Ghiardelli Square,

and drove to San Jose, CA to visit the Winchester Mystery House...

Mrs. Winchester built this nonsensical house 24 hours a day for 38 years to scare off the ghosts of the people killed by the Winchester riffle that she thought haunted her!

Then we headed up to Napa Valley to see the vineyards. We took a tour of the Beringer Vineyard and wine caves.

Our first day in Yosemite Valley was cold and snowy,

but our second day was BEAUTIFUL and SUNNY!!!

We saw the granite rock formations,

and the beautiful waterfalls!

There were some absolutely breathtaking views!

I hiked a lot for a 6.5 month pregnant chick :-)

We hiked through the Mariposa Grove of Redwoods. Some had fallen a long time ago,

and some were still standing strong. I loved how small they made me feel :-)

They were the biggest things I've ever seen!!!!!!!!!!!!

We had so much fun!

Speaking of Swollen Feet....

Have you seen these????

 

They are all Crocs!!!! But they are actually kinda cute. I even like the new look of the clogs (see the last picture). Yes, I may have to take the plunge and get some Crocs this summer...my feet are already starting to get uncomfortable, and I'm not even to my third trimester yet - YIKES!
