A Bar Bathroom Doodle.

We have entered the waiting game.   Freedom from the daily grind and any day could bring the event that will change our lives forever.  There is no other time in life like these days we are living right now.  Throughout life, we have events that we wait anxiously for, but never an event that is so utterly life changing AND we have no idea when it is coming.  The span of possibility is shortening, but still, will it begin an hour from now?  Or two weeks?

So how do we use our time from now until then?

Some twiddle their thumbs.  Others pace the room.

We go out to bars.  Pretty much every night.  Our days are filled with fun activities (lots of walks, watching movies, final details to prepare our apartment, etc)....and our nights, well...good food and a chill bar scene seems to be the staple.  Now, don't get the wrong idea.  Though we do firmly believe that a glass of wine in these weeks of waiting is great for Shayna and the baby to get movin', Shayna is not dancing on the bar these days.  Just a chill space for us to revel in these moments before the arrival of our love.

But with that said, though we can pretend that each of these nights are just regular nights of summer relaxation...our baby is on our mind.  So when I (Mel) went to the bathroom of the bar the other night and saw writing all over its wood walls, it was clear that our state of being at that moment needed to be documented for all time.  Who knows?  Maybe we'll bring lil De Lowe there in the coming weeks and take another picture? :)
