Babymoon


At 9 weeks left and counting, we decided it was time for a little getaway -- our last adventure together before we're traveling with a stroller, diaper bag, and infant in tow!  So last Friday we headed off to San Diego and had an incredible long weekend in the sun!   We drove along Highway 101, hung out at the beach, did a little shopping, ate good food and just enjoyed our time relaxing!  

(The picture to the left is overlooking the shores of La Jolla, the town where we stayed.)

The baby continues to do well - kicking constantly and creating a moving picture across my belly nearly all day long!  We've been able to feel either it's little foot or hand at times....and his or her little butt likes to maneuver it's way up underneath my lower ribs it seems.  It's so funny!  I continue to feel well, except for some nighttime leg cramps which seem to creep up now and then.  "I thought the baby was coming," Eric said, after I awoke in pain one night of our trip to a cramping left calf.  Needless to say, I've now made it part of my nightly routine to do calf stretches and that has seemed to prevent them for now.  If that's the only issue with my pregnancy though, I've truly been blessed.
