Practicing her parental duties, expectant momma Hilary Duff spent time with hubby Mike Comrie and family friends at a Los Angeles, California park this afternoon (November 25).

Looking to be at ease with the little ones, the former Disney darling showed off her burgeoning baby bump in a tight black top, brown pants and knee-high leather boots.

Meanwhile, Hilary is already prepping for her return to the music world post-pregnancy, telling press she'd like to debut her next record sometime between 2012 and 2013.

Hoping to make her next album a hit on the pop charts, Duff says she'd like her next set of tracks to cater to her fans that like to hit the dance floor.
