Babymoon

Peter and I have been wanting to take Simon on vacation to a beach where it's actually warm, so we finally did!  I was so happy that we managed to squeeze in a trip before the baby comes because I really wanted some time for us as a family of 3 since that will soon be changed.

We picked San Diego because Peter wanted to do a couple (okay, 3) Spartan races at the same time and we had heard that San Diego is amazing.  Let's just say that it did not disappoint - at all!

 When we first arrived, we stayed at an apartment in San Diego  (that we found off airbnb.com).  Peter did his first race on our first full day there so we were pretty ready to settle into vacation mode after that.

 After a few days in San Diego, we moved to a condo right on the beach in Oceanside where we spent the remainder of our time.  The day that we switched places, we decided to hit up the San Diego Zoo which was so fun!  It is huge and so colorful with all the foliage and plants everywhere.  Simon loved it.

Yes, they have playgrounds right on the beach!

So many beautiful sunsets

Lots of rock throwing

30 weeks!



I am so thankful that we were able to go on this trip and enjoy this time before baby comes.  Can't believe we are only weeks away from being a family of 4.  Part of me is so ready and part of me is so nostalgic about my time with Simon.

Did you ladies take babymoons?  I want to hear your stories!  This was our first one and I loved it.

Hope you all are having a fantastic week!

XOXO
