So I leave tonight. The good thing is I have a lot fewer clothes to bring with me this time so I won’t have to struggle through the tube traffic bogged down with a million pieces of luggage. The bad news is I am really going to miss everyone here in Phoenix.  London is definitely where I want to be, but saying goodbye is always hard.

Having a baby is finally starting to sink in, and the more it does, the more excited I get. I was lucky enough to not have any morning sickness, and the only symptoms I have now are tiredness and not being able to eat very much in one sitting. So I will just be eating all the time! I’m trying to drink 12 glasses of water a day and it is really, really hard. And yes Mom, I am taking my vitamins, and YES MOM, they have folic acid!!!! Luckily I have been taking a very good vitamin every day for several years, so baby Sutton is lacking for nothing. Unfortunately, giving up crack cocaine is harder than I had expected, but at least it has vitamins.

Unlike most people, I like traveling on planes, as long as people leave me alone for the majority of the trip. I am hoping to use the pregnancy to my advantage and say I have to get my rest, then secretly watch movies on my laptop…
