Little get-a-way...

This past weekend me and my honey went on a little getaway.  We just went to the city about an hour away and stayed in a super nice hotel for a couple of nights.  We had no plans...just resting and relaxing and enjoying each other's company.  I just needed a break from all of the planning, cleaning, organizing, etc.  

We love to travel and do so frequently.  We wanted to go someplace farther away for this getaway but we just didn't get it planned in time.  Also, when I mentioned flying somewhere at 30 weeks to my OB he didn't seem too excited about that idea.  He didn't tell me not to...he just said that it makes him a teeny bit nervous.  So no flying for me.  I appreciate the fact that he is a little overly cautious with me...he knows how much this precious baby girl means to us and how hard we worked to get this far.  His main concern was that I start having BH contractions when I get uncomfortable so an airplane ride is just asking to have them....

Anyway, we got to the hotel on Thursday, after a trip to Babies.R.Us....which was super fun!  We picked out our glider and the fabric that we wanted for it.  The glider is awesome!  I wanted one that would be comfortable for my husband as well as me.  He is six four so the back of most chairs hits him at about his neck...not good!  We are getting one that is extra tall and super comfy.  It is pretty expensive but I feel like it is worth it.  From what I hear, we will be using it all the time.  We can also use it anywhere else in the house...not just the nursery.  And you want to know the best part?!?!?!  My fantastic, awesome, wonderful mother in law has offered to buy it for us!!!  She is the sweetest :)  I am going to check and see if I can find the same one at a couple of different furniture stores for cheaper...we will see how that goes.  

After that trip we went to a bookstore.  My husband and I both love to read.  We each bought a few books and then headed to the hotel.  We walked downtown (not too much because it was 100 degrees) and found a pizza place for dinner.  

The next day we went to a maternity store because I was in some desperate need of more clothes.  I didn't want to buy too much but I just needed some basics to help finish up this pregnancy.  Hopefully I won't need to buy anymore because maternity clothes are INSANELY expensive!  

We had a great lunch and then took a nap...Shocking, right?  

For dinner we went to a dim sum restaurant...it was ok...I've had better :)

Saturday we woke up and went to the Farmer's Market.  I love buying fresh fruit...it is always so much better than getting it from the store.  We took all of our fruit to my mother in law's house.  She lives in the next town from where we were.  I made a fruit salad and we spent a few hours hanging out in the pool.  

We had a great time and it was great to get away from the house.  Even though we didn't do much it is nice to spend time together.  People keep telling us to go on as many dates as possible in the next few months so we are going to try and do that.  Although it is hard because at the end of the day I just want to lay on the couch or in the bed and read! 

I had my 3D ultrasound yesterday and I will post about that soon.  

Also, my friend A that I talked about in this post got her BFP on her 1st IVF.  She is thrilled but she now has pretty severe OHSS.  They had to drain fluid out of her abdomen and she has to keep the drain in place for 10 days.  She feels really crummy.  I can't imagine finally getting a positive and then going through all of that..can you imagine the worry?!?  She has an ultrasound coming up in a little bit so I am just hoping that little baby(ies) are growing like crazy in there!  If you think about it...send her some get well vibes!
