Good Morning Baltimore!

Eric finally had a break from school so we took the opportunity to take Lily up to the much talked about Baltimore Aquarium.

On the way up we stopped by the National Cathedral in D.C. to eat lunch and take a bunch of crappy pictures–our extended flash batteries were dead and Catholic cathedrals are anything but light and bright.

We walked around the harbor and fed some seagulls until we felt like we were in a Hitchcock movie.

We ate some dang good pizza at a place called Matthew's pizza. Yum, just thinking about it right now makes me want to drive the two plus hours back up there. As Eric told Lily: "This is the happiest you'll see your mom on the trip". That is true, good food does make me unusually happy.


Hit the aquarium. We saw a dolphin show, plenty of sharks and fish, and had to see the Dora and Diego 4D movie which of course ended up being Lily's favorite part of the whole trip.

So for a trip on the cheap it was pretty dang fun. Mostly because of the company, but I definitely thought Baltimore showed us a good time.

Lilly has gotten even cuter since you last posted! I'll bet she is a lot of fun right now. Persy would have loved the 4D show too.

She is dang cute. I've heard the aquarium is pretty great in Baltimore, what a fun family outing.

I'm sure it was just nice to get away and do something together as a family. That sounds really nice right now. I hope you are doing good.

Look at your cute pregnant belly! Sounds like a fun trip, and I especially love the picture at the aquarium and the fact that you can see Eric and Lily's cute face reflected!

You are officially the cutest pregnant girl ever. Look at you in your skinny jeans! I had to ditch mine months ago. They just don't look the same when you gain 50 pounds, ha ha! Looks like a fun trip! Oh, and I'd love to see pictures of your little guy's nursery. It might inspire me!
