Pregnant Paradise

Over Memorial Day weekend, Matt and I headed to Palm Beach for one last "baby free" vacation.

This pre-baby trip has become known as a "babymoon" in popular culture. However, neither of us are crazy about the name. First, the name was most likely inspired by the term honeymoon - a vacation you take after the wedding. Wouldn't a babymoon be a vacation you take after you have the baby? Second, every time I hear the word I picture Matt pressing our baby's sweet little naked bottom up to the car window and laughing hysterically. Needless to say, "babymoon" had to go.

So, during our trip we tried to come up with another phrase that was suitable. Babe-cation? No because that sounds like a trip that Uncle Drew and his friends would take on spring break. Tot-iday? Nope, because again, that seems to imply a holiday WITH a tot - we are trying to convey the exact opposite. So, the best we could come up with was Pregnant Paradise. And...it was!

We stayed at the glorious Four Seasons hotel, relaxed by the pool/beach, ate some amazing meals and caught up with an old friend. Pregnant Paradise success!

My good friend Corey drove up from Miami to spend some time with us. Such a fun day catching up and we hope to see him more often!


We stumbled upon this neat little garden when we were exploring the town. (Lots of flower pictures posted for my dad!)
