San Diego Trip....last vaca before baby and Riley update :)

So Tony and I have been trying to plan a trip to San Diego for months to see his brother and sister-in-law. We finally were able to go this past weekend although we weren't able to see our sister-in-law :(. It was hard trying to coordinate a time for Tony and I to have a Friday, Saturday, and Sunday off in a row. I'm so glad we did.

Last Thursday before we left, I had a Drs. appt. I have been having contractions and feeling a lot of pelvic pressure so the dr checked me even though they usually start checking at 36 weeks. I was 1-2 cm dialated and 30 % effaced. I was surprised that I had already started to dialate but thats a good sign. I went again for my start of weekly appointments and I'm a full 2 cm dialated and still 30% effaced. Its exciting to think that I'm starting the process.

Going back to the vacation, we went out for yummy pizza on Friday night and played video games. Saturday, Tony's brother took us to the USS Midway. For those of you who don't know, the USS Midway is an aircraft carrier that was launched right after World War II and recently decomissioned in 1992. I also had no idea how big an aircraft carrier is. I've seen them on tv but nothing compares to seeing one in person. Its like a floating city. We spent 4 hours on that thing and went up and down tons of stairs. I was tired later that night but had a great time. Here are a few pics.

Not a great pic of me but you can see how big I've gotten

Inside the hanger area. Gives you an idea of the size. It also has many compartments below. Yes, I went up and down several of those little tiny stairs.

Later that night, we went out (or I should say the guys) had sushi. I had something that was not sushi :) Ick but Tony really enjoyed it.

Us at the Sushi restaurant.

After Sushi we went to a fancy dessert place for some really yummy cake. The next day, Sunday, we took Enzo to the dog beach along with Tim and his dog Topo. He behaved himself for the most part.

I wish our trip wasn't so short but I'm glad we got to go. We had such a blast!
