We went on a wonderful trip to Del Ray Beach, Florida to visit our dear friends (Peggy and David Walters) who recently moved there. The weather was perfect and we had an absolute blast. We visited beautiful Key West and spent a lot of time swimming and laughing. (THANKS PEGS AND DAVID!)
Peggy and David are also expecting their first baby around the same time as ours. (In fact, Baby Walters is due just a day before Baby Morrison--CRAZY!) As you can imagine, there was a lot of talk of babies while we there. One night we were talking about our doctors and where we will be delivering. We told them that we were so impressed with our doctor, who only delivers at Scripps Encinitas, that we changed our mind about the possibility of having a home birth like we originally discussed. David (like Adam when I first mentioned my desire to have a home birth) was curious and started asking questions. Adam PLEASANTLY surprised me with his knowledge!! He was able to answer almost all of David's questions about why women choose to give birth at home and even quoted some statistics about birth methods in the US and other countries. Adam started spewing out facts about many different birth procedures in hospitals and knew so much more than I ever thought he did. I was so impressed! Who would have guessed that my husband (who calls my parents and I hippies) would some day defend home births and know so much about birth in general?!? What a guy!
The boys had a few cocktails together:
After a few cocktails, Adam thought he was a Floridian Pink Flamingo:
The beaches were so beautiful:
The ocean was amazing:
