Reflections In The Waves

We're on vacation right now, and I couldn't be happier. This trip was a last minute one, spurred by the thought that I wasn't sure when we'd be able to get away again, with a new baby on the way. After I booked it, though, I had those second guesses, like maybe I shouldn't spend the money because I'll be on maternity leave for six months, but now that we're here, I realize that life is too short for those second guesses.





Money doesn't matter. What does matter is that I'm eating up every minute of the giggles and squeals, the thrilled little voice shouting, "Water park, water park!" the three of us cuddling in the king sized bed, eating junky food (I'll regret this when I step on a scale!), and just having this time for us. We head home tomorrow, but I know the memories we're making will last forever.

Good for you! How wise to keep your priorities in order. You'll never regret the trip you took and the happy times - the only regrets are the things we could have done and didn't! Your pictures are great and your son looks SO happy! Someone asked my dad when he was in his eighties what the best part of his life was and his answer? The vacations that he and my mom took.

Looks like you guys had a wonderful time! :) I bet it was hard to leave. Did you happen to stop at the outlet mall while there? It's not the best one, but still pretty good.

What a cutie! I wish that my youngest was not so afraid of the water so we could do that.
