BABYMOON!!!!

We just got back from our Babymoon in Florida (for those of you who don't know, a Babymoon is a trip you take before you have a baby). We had an amazing week soaking up the sun at the pool and on the beach. We stayed in Marco Island for two nights and in Bonita Springs for two nights. We spent a lot of time relaxing, reading, eating and walking on the beach. The weather was beautiful- 85 and sunny the whole time. We continuously applied 70 SPF sunscreen but we still managed to get a sunburn! Don't worry, I kept my belly covered so Baby Allen would be safe from the sun. We ate at fun restaurants and enjoyed spending time together. It was a great trip!

We realized on the trip that having a pregnant belly is similar to wearing a huge sign that says "Come up and talk to me!" We were stopped constantly by people (mostly older retired people) who asked us questions about the baby. We soon realized that they were only asking so they could tell us about their kids, grand kids, friends or neighbors who have kids. We heard a lot of stories and got a lot of advice!!!

It was really hard to come home (I will admit that I had tears on the way to the airport) and it didn't make it any easier to come home to snow. We are ready for spring!!! Looking back, we are very thankful that we had the chance to take one last trip together before the chaos begins. Now the next big thing on our calendar is on July 2nd when Baby Allen is due!
