When I first heard about babymoon's years ago I thought it was the best idea! Your last and final big trip before your baby comes and your life changes in many different and very busy ways! So when Oren called me from work one day and said we are going on a babymoon to St. John in the Virgin Islands.... I was SO EXCITED!! And the best part was, we didn't have long to wait. We anxiously kept our eyes on the hurricane status (yes it is hurricane season) and Irene skimmed by them as a tropical storm, but threatened the East Coast. Luckily, we flew out hours before shutting down the airport in Philly, and as we flew out the pilot pointed out the outer rim of the hurricane...YIKES! So we headed off to hurricane ally and avoided the hurricane :D We got the BEST weather, and can I just say it is amazing there!! Crystal clear blue water you can walk right out into the ocean up to your neck, look down and see your feet with fish swimming around.... families stuck their babies in floaties and floated right along with them in the ocean!! We are already thinking to return with baby in tow (and family!) in 2013 (since 2012 is already spoken for) :) It was so beautiful, we came back tan, relaxed, and ready to prepare for our new little man on the way :D
Our view checking in at our Westin time share.
Our native friends....the iguanas, we saw EVERYWHERE! Even in the tree outside our balcony!
View on the way to the beach for the day! AMAZING!
Baby bump Kwiatek!! (he has been moving and kicking quite a bit these days!)
More beautiful views from our drive around the island.
Awaiting our dinner reservation with a great view :)
It's crunch time now, I have baby showers to look forward to, Lamaze classes in Nov., getting baby stuff set up, plan a bris, and only 18 weeks left!! YIKES! (and that is IF I carry to full term)...my mom delivered ALL of us 3 weeks early and my Dr. said I have a 50/50 chance I will do the same :P We are very excited for the journey we are on, and even more excited to share it with you! XOXOXO
I knew you were going out of town but did not know it was for this trip. How sweet!! It sounds (and looks) fabulous! Glad you got to enjoy yourself with some downtime before the lil one comes along! :)
