Stopping to smell the roses … at Costco

I hit the 20 week mark in my pregnancy on Monday, which marks the pivotable point in my pregnancy at which my doctor told me that I need to “slow down.”  Knowing that the end of my freedom was coming, I was anxious to run a bunch of errands this past weekend.  We spent Saturday hanging out with Jen, Neil and Kelly; so Sunday was the only day left for errands.  Instead of rushing through my errands as I usually would, I took them all at a leisurely pace.  (This is partly because I can no longer walk as fast as I used to, but also partly due to the fact that I wanted to take everything in and enjoy these last few days out of the house.)  We ran a bunch of errands; we went to mall; to DSW; to the grocery store and to Costco.  At Costco, Seth and I meandered up and down ever aisle.  I checked out every new item and every item that has been there since it opened last year.  I made sure to sample EVERY one of the samples — after all it will be months before I get to try these samples again!
