    Romantic weekend for two

    Phew! Sometimes life just seems to get so busy all of a sudden. It's been a couple of weeks, but back when I was 30-weeks pregnant, Jeremy and I took a much-needed romantic getaway for 3 nights (4 days) to go relax at a resort and enjoy being a 2-person family for as long as it lasts.

    We were upgraded by the resort free-of-charge to a King Suite which gave us a large spa bath so we went out and bought strawberries and chocolate, as well as some dealcoholised wine, and really lived it up.During the days we took scenic drives out to the hinterland and explored little towns, poking around shops that would be highly inappropriate (way too small) to accommodate small children or large prams.

    I think this was something really important for us to do together, because it marks the end of the chapter in our lives that we've been living together. Now we've had that time to reflect on each other and our relationship (I made a toast in the spa), and we're all set for the arrival of our baby.

    Incidentally, that's only 8 weeks from now which seems so soon but it's also 56 days which seems like forever!
