Aubrey transitioned to one nap while I was in the throws of morning sickness. I would have prefered two naps a lttle while longer. That being said, I am also looking forward to one nap.
We are so excited about our visit and your visit too! And...we used to have a Cheeburger Cheeburger out here too and it's also closed. It was so tasty. We miss In n Out also, but we have a restaurant here called Char Grill and it's very similar to In N Out. Can't wait to see you guys!
I'm still missing my pre-pregnancy body. No matter how hard you work out, it just seems that some things will never be the same!!!
