On Friday, July 20th, Chris and I drove down to San Diego to see his mom for her birthday and to share the news about the baby. We gave ourselves enough to leisurely make our way down, and had time to stop for some food along the way. Turns out when when you get pregnant, eating and sleeping is about all you can think about. We had the best pizza at a Roundtables Pizza we found just off the freeway. I know it wasn't the healthiest food, but it sure hit the spot.
We had done enough traveling in the last few years that we earned enough points to use it for a free room at the Marriot. We had a lovely room high above to see the city...unfortunately we didn't take in consideration it was also very close to the train tracks. We found that out at 2 am.
We met up with Chris's mom for dinner at Ruth Chris's steak house where we spent her last birthday. Our plan was to wait until after we order the food. And once she found out, she was so excited she had to tell the first person she saw, our waitress Beth. Which paid off later when Beth came back with a free desert!
The next day we met at the mall for lunch with mom's friend Pat. We went to a Cuban restaurant and as I found out, outdoor umbrella lighting gives my skin a nice warm glow. I posed happily after I enjoyed my Cuban sandwich.
Mom got many new gifts from Pat for her new apartment that she was moving into, mostly purple stuff. (It's her favorite color) And I got a stack of books from mom about pregnancy and giving birth. And not to leave Chris out, he got to see his mom and his wife both very very happy!
