Babymoon?

Brian and I were talking about our upcoming European trip to a friend recently, and she asked us if it was our "babymoon". I'd never heard of that term before - as always, Wikipedia to the rescue!
Babymoon has several meanings. The original meaning is a period of time that parents spend bonding with a recently-born baby. More recently the term has come to be used to describe a vacation taken by a couple that is expecting a baby in order to allow the couple to enjoy a final trip together before the many sleepless nights that usually accompany a newborn baby.
So yeah, I guess this is our babymoon? It wasn't planned that way, but I guess the timing works out! Anyway, all this to say that we're taking a blogging hiatus for a couple weeks. Never fear, though, we'll be back with more updates as soon as we return!

Au revoir, mes amis !

    1. Google is weird- I had to tell them my name when they know everything about me, including where my bus is at this moment.

  2. Unless someone else asked you the same question, I think that unnamed "she" was me :) Elise introduced me to the term, I hadn't heard it before we planned a 'babymoon' to Portland, Maine. Enjoy!

    1. Ha! I didn't exactly remember who it was, but this sounds like it could be right...
