Seattle Babymoon

I am pretty sure no one ever really knows what the hell I am talking about when I say babymoon, but I have adopted the word into my vocabulary. Just like you have a honeymoon to celebrate your love and your wedding day, you can have a babymoon. A chance to get away with your love before your world gets rocked by an infant! We had our babymoon before we had Dillan in Hawaii and this time we went to cold, rainy Seattle and had a blast! I had never been to Seattle and we wanted to go somewhere that actually felt like winter! We bundled up and walked the city streets, did some shopping, saw movies, had amazing dinners, and slept in!!!!!! I LOVE spending unadulterated time with Dusty and this trip was the perfect time for us to connect and catch up on rest before little Connor arrives. We also got to visit and spend the day with our good friends, the Bentley's who moved there this last year. We got to hang out with their little guy Camden, who is SO CUTE! Crystal and I are two weeks apart in our pregnancies and both having baby boys again, which is so fun! We even got to have a fun dinner together that night. It was great to catch up. Thanks to both of our parents who watched Dillan while we were gone (which in this case also meant taking care of Dillan while he had the flu and then all catching it). Thanks to my husband for working so hard so we could take this fun trip together and for treating me to the most unbelievable day at the spa that I have ever had! I wish I could live there sometimes:)
