Hong Kong with Kate and babies to be

My friend Kate is going to have a baby boy in just a couple weeks.  I decided to take a trip over there to see her and to talk all things baby and to celebrate Kate before we both have little newborns.

Kate is 14 weeks more pregnant than me and still has more energy than I had before I was pregnant.  She’s amazing.  We traipsed all around Hong Kong looking at the prettiest baby stuff and maternity stuff.  It’s so wonderful that we’re pregnant at the same time and close enough to see each other.  Who could have ever imagined that when we were sitting in my flat in Marylbone.

I flew in Friday afternoon and a quick hour and 40 minutes later i was there!

Friday night we went to a barbeque Kate’s boss had on a roof deck.  It was awesome.  Tons of grilled meat and a beautiful view.

Saturday we had a yummy breakfast at home and headed out.  Kate’s friends had planned a surprise lunch at a yummy restaurant followed by a mani pedi for her baby shower.  It was such a fun girly day and Kate’s friends were all so sweet and so happy for her.  After a full day out we headed back to Kate’s apartment, had a yummy dinner and watched Grey’s Anatomy all night. Heaven! It was really nice to have a completely girly weekend with Kate before she becomes a mom and judging by how comfy I was the whole weekend, that is one lucky baby boy.

I miss Kate but I’m so happy we’re so close and I can’t wait to come visit and meet her precious little boy! I’m pretty lucky to have Kate in my life and to have her so close by. 

I was happy to get home to this little boy though! He loved his Hong Kong bus I brought him.
