We have been on some fun adventures this past month! We went to DC and to Monticello where Thomas Jefferson's home is. It was great fun.

DC was awesome. We parked at Subway near the Temple and road into downtown. It was way fun and less stressful to find parking. We ate at an African restaurant in china town. Josh couldn't of been happier. He kept saying "oh this is just how I remember it!" We went to the temple that night after our big busy day downtown. While josh took his turn in the temple, the sister missionaries were so sweet and set me up in a room with the Legacy movie, allowing Andrew to crawl around. 

Andrew really enjoyed the Metro DC. He was smiling and laughing and the people on the train were laughing too.

the front of the Discovery space ship! Josh and I reminisced about seeing it fly over Utah  when we were in elementary school.

Tummy time with Dad



Monticello, was neat. We first stopped at Carter mountain and picked apples at the orchard. At the barn they had the most amazing apple slushies and apple cider doughnuts! After we went to Thomas Jefferson's Home. They didn't allow cameras so no pictures of that :( My fav part of the tour was how Jefferson was a very well rounded man. He tried a little of everything and was very organized. 

 


Andrew was very interested in the action of  picking the apple. 

Always so focused and serious when there is a task at hand. He get that from his Dad.

VA Beach

Since the baby is due very soon Josh and I went on a "baby moon" to VA beach this week. Josh had a whole week off for spring break so we had to take to the opportunity. Josh's parents had an extra week on their time share and were so nice to let us use it! We had a lot of fun just chillen. We read lots of books on the beach, flew a kite, slept in, Josh swam in the freezing water, and we ate a ton of food, including an all you can eat seafood buffet... we ate about 70 crab legs between the two of us!
It was nice to have a week off from work. As it gets closer to April, I am starting to "slow down". Unfortunately as much as I try to avoid it, the Waddle is my new gait pattern. We are getting excited for our little one, just 39 more days until Andrew Is here! (unless he chooses to come earlier.... or later... ah I feel like I am just going to be prego forever :)

Christmas Cruise



We had so much fun with our Families over Christmas Break. It wasn't until I got home that I realized we had no pictures during our time in Utah! If anyone has some pics of the baby shower let me know! Here are pictures from our Cruise! It was a pregnant woman's dream, the sun, the beach, and the endless supply of food!

We did a lot of snorkeling on the trip one of the highlights was in Bon-Aire. We were taken to a coral reef park. It was AMAZING! HUGE coral and lots of turtles and we even saw a barracuda! 









The tour guides were really nice and said they were grateful how "daring" our family was with free diving. You can see in some of the pics how deep Josh goes. 


This pic is one of my favorites of Josh from the trip




Josh teasing an animal... again.

This was at Grenada the "spice" island, this is a coco farm



We love the Beach!







Frisbee while pregnant? Of course! Josh had to keep reminding me not to dive after it. Oops sorry baby!


Playing in the ocean :)




A little reminder that is was Christmas!
