This week we traveled home to Maine! Jason was unable to make the trip with me in July, so a college friend's New England wedding gave us the perfect opportunity to make the trip up to vacationland for another visit :) I love Maine. My husband grew up in the Air Force, so he doesn't really have a "home state." I joke that Maine adopted him. I love taking Jason home and showing him how beautiful my our state is.
The car ride was l-o-n-g. My doctor instructed me that I needed to get out of the car every 2 hours and walk around. (apparently being pregnant and sitting too long can lead to blood clots - yikes!) We left early in the morning and took our time, we didn't have anything we had to get home to until the next day. Our plan was if the trip was too much we would stop and spend the night somewhere along the way, but we just powered through! We actually made great time, considering all the stops to get out and walk around and my million pee breaks along the way!
Sightseeing on the coast! The overcast weather didn't stop us :)
Jason ran, while I walked this great new paved path in town! They are slowly extending it, and I can't wait till we can take our bikes home and go for family bike rides with a baby seat attached :)
We spent many hours relaxing by the pool!
I learned that preggo bellies also make great baby seats! Haha. This is my sweet little niece, how cute is she!? I was so excited my sister-in-law and niece were also home visiting the same week :)
We took the ferry over for some Maine island adventures, with my Dad and brother.
Of course, we ate lobsters! Lobster in Maine is always fresh... but Jason actually got to pull the lobster trap out of the ocean for these guys :)
This picture melts me! We went over to dinner at our friends' house, and Jason got to practice feeding their daughter! He looks like a natural to me! ;)
