DC

John and I got a 24-hour get away to DC this past weekend. It was heaven! Exactly what I needed. It was only 24 hours so I didn’t have to miss them for too long. It was just enough time to let me regroup and miss their cute little smiles and hugs! It was also nice bc although the time was very short I got to go and get on an airplane and do adult stuff, like traveling. Just like back in the days before kids. I only packed for me! Everything in my purse was all for me! Stuff I am so not used to anymore. John was asked to speak at a conference on a Sunday. He said no way but his boss really needed him to do it so after a little negotiating I got to go too! We stayed at a 4 seasons and had the best time. Did a little window shopping, had a great dinner, watched a movie in bed, I lounged in bed in the morning and got to take a bubble bath. Then when John got done we had time for lunch and a little site seeing before the plane ride home. It was perfect! The girls stayed home with John’s dad and step mom who they love and always have so much fun with. All went really well and I didn’t have to worry for a minute.

PS. after dinner we went walking looking for someplace John could get a drink and I could get a yummy dessert. We went back to our hotel swanky bar. John ordered a drink and I got a cherry coke. Come to find out that was a $6 cherry coke. Yikes. Well they didn't have anything chocolate on their dessert menu?!?!?! So we went back to the room and ordered a dessert from room service. $18 dollars later here is me and my yummy dessert. I guess you don't get between a pregnant lady and her chocolate.
