Never obsolete

Before boarding the boat!

Sorry it's taken a bit since our trip for me to update!  Matt and I had such an amazing time together on our babymoon - my only wish is it was longer.  We headed out of Ft. Lauderdale on Royal Caribbean's Liberty of the Seas.  It was an amazing boat that stopped once in Cozumel where we chose to do a shore excursion of exploring the Mayan ruins of Tulum.

Even though eating was one of the highlights of our trip ;), I will say that my favorite part of the trip was just spending quality time with Matt.  While we are excited to have baby X in our lives, the trip made me realize what an amazing husband I have and how much our relationship has gone through.   Meeting when we were 17, not dating until we were 22, breaking up for a year, getting through Matt's law school years,  engagement/wedding, and now taking this next huge step together.  I can't imagine anyone else doing this with and I'm glad we had one last chance to get away and just focus on each other (even though we thought about little Xavier the whole time =P).  I walked off that boat even more in love that I thought I could be with this guy I've been looking at for the last eight years.


Here are a few pix to peep from our trip:

So onto the second love of my life... Xavier is 24 weeks this week!!!  Can you believe how quickly this is happening?  Only about 16 weeks away and we get to meet our little cutie pie.  X is definitely over a pound now and about the size of a grapefruit and about a foot long!  His lungs are forming more quickly and he's starting to plump up and really start to look like a little baby.  We're planning on visiting X again and getting a 3d ultrasound around 28 weeks, so we can't wait for that.  Who do you think he'll look like?!


And let's not forget our Hump Day Bump Day pix!

22 weeks!

23 weeks!

24 weeks!

To our little Xavier:  I hope that when you grow up that you end up as loving and caring of a man as your Dad.  He does everything he can to make me happy and has been amazingly supportive during this pregnancy.  All he thinks about is how to keep you safe and how to keep me smiling - you're so lucky to have him as your Dad.
