Staycation

Since we couldn’t travel very far this weekend we hung out in the city and had such a great time! On Saturday we went down to the Brooklyn Bridge Park and saw the Telectroscope - http://gothamist.com/2008/05/22/telectroscope_t.php
After that, we had ice cream from the Brooklyn Creamery and then hopped on the water taxi to the South Street Seaport where we shopped and had a nice dinner.

On Sunday, Morgan and I took a trip down to Coney Island and I finally got the corn dog I’ve been craving for the past week! It was such a great beach day. We walked the boardwalk and then got our feet wet in the ocean.

On Monday we went up to Prospect Park (along with everyone else in Brooklyn). We sat in the sun and read non-baby books for a while and then our friends Allison and Geoffe picked us up and took us to Bay Ridge for SPUMONI GARDENS (the best pizza in the world, for those of you who don’t know). It was a fantastic weekend and it really helped take our minds off the waiting game we’re playing right now.

Speaking of which, we had another doctor’s appointment yesterday. The baby appears to be making some progress! She’s moved down a little bit and I am now dilated about 1 to 2 centimeters. We’re trying not to get too anxious though because you can be dilated like that for quite a while, but it’s good to know our little girl is actually taking steps towards getting out of there! I’ve also been having more contractions here and there – but again, that’s all par for the course and it could go on this way for another week or two. We’ll let you know if anything major happens, but for now, we’re still just enjoying our morning walks and our nice, quiet apartment…

Love,
Jill
