a few lovely and delicious distractions...

i really don't mean to complain, but any woman who has been pregnant will back me up when i say that the last few weeks can be a bit unbearable. i know i should be relishing this last bit of time before a tiny human consumes it all...but my body is under such strain.
i am finding that distracting myself from thinking about it too much helps...a little.

so, here are a few of the things that are seeing me through the long days:


a really good book:


sinfully delicious fruit:


and a new craving, that is now my FAVORITE cake ever...
multi-layer coconut cake (baked for me by my loving husband):



how lucky am i? yes, it is just as good as it looks.

Ugh, those last weeks are miserable. So soon, so soon.
