Babymoon!

J and I got a much-needed break over the weekend. Claire spent the weekend at Honey and H's, and we had a little "babymoon" before the big day. We decided to stay close to home, so we packed up and headed down to the Riverwalk for a couple of nights. We stayed at Hotel Contessa, and it was sooo nice. They upgraded us to a river-view suite, but we enjoyed their rooftop pool/terrace the most. On Saturday, I spent a glorious morning at the spa, then we checked out the new farmer's market. We headed back to the hotel for a relaxing afternoon on the roof enjoying the perfect weather and reading our books, then went back down to get ready for dinner. We ate at The Lodge and it was really great food. We went with the 4-course dinner, but after all the treats the chef sends out throughout your meal, it ends up being 7 or 8. I was so full. It was magnificent. We slept 11 1/2 hours (!!!) Saturday night, then woke up to a lovely brunch at a new French place--Brasserie Pavil. Yes, the whole weekend pretty much revolved around where we were going to have our next meal. What more could a pregnant lady ask for??

I love it!!! I am so jealous. YOu totally deserve it. I think you should do this at least five more times before the little lady makes her debut!
