Last day in Cabo..

Today was our last day in Cabo. It's kinda bittersweet. The vacation seemed very short but we achieved our goal for the trip which was to relax and do nothing! This will be the last official vacation where there will only be the two of us - Daddy Jarbs and myself. However, we are excited and looking forward to taking Baby Jarbs with us on our future getwaways. We want to share with her our love for traveling so we plan to train her young :-)

19 weeks

Weekly check-in:

How far along?: 19w3d

Pregnancy symptoms: Growing belly, fetal movements/kicks
Maternity clothes: No maternity clothes this week but a lot of loose dresses/tops
Stretch Marks: None
Sleep: I've been getting tons of sleep this week so no complaints
Best moment this week: Finding out that Baby Jarbs is a GIRL and letting the rest of the world know :-). Also, Daddy Jarbs finally feeling the baby kick and telling her "I love you baby" :-).
Movement: Baby Jarbs has been kicking A LOT since last Friday! I can feel her kick everyday now. What an awesome feeling. It always brings a smile to my face.

What I am looking forward to: Start working on her nursery when we get back!
Milestones:



Vernix caseosa, a greasy white substance made of lanugo, oil, and dead skin cells (yum) now coats baby's skin, shielding it from the amniotic fluid. (Picture yourself after a nine-month bath, and the need for protection makes sense.)

Baby Jarbs got a massage...

Well, kinda :-).

Today was spa day for us! Daddy Jarbs got an 80 min sports massage and I got a prenatal massage! It felt great. I rarely doze off whenever I have a massage but for a few minutes during the massage, I was in la-la land :-). And yes, Baby Jarbs got a massage too! The masseuse did a gentle, soothing massage on my belly. I hope Baby Jarbs liked it. After my massage and while waiting for Daddy Jarbs, I then had my spa pedicure. We're teaching Baby Jarbs how to love spas and massages just like Daddy Jarbs and I do. Yes, we're starting her young :-).  Soon enough I'll have somebody to tag along and get manicures and pedicures with :-).

Later in the day, Daddy Jarbs and I walked again to downtown Cabo for a nice dinner and strolled around the marina. We went back to The Office to get some drinks (virgin pina colada for me) and listened to the live band. What a great way to end such a relaxing day!

What a day!

We had a rough day today! We ate, napped, ate, napped and ate again! :-). We have not had such a relaxing vacation since our honeymoon almost two years ago! We are trying to get as much sleep now. We heard sleepless nights await us when Baby Jarbs arrives. We pray that she will be an easy baby like she has been since the day she was conceived. So far (knock on wood), she has not given mommy and daddy a hard time. I am hoping that she will inherit Daddy Jarbs' sleeping habits so she will just sleep all day and night.

Today, we visited our resort's sister hotel, Pueblo Bonita Pacifica. We spent most of the afternoon lounging on the beach bed. It was soo relaxing!

Proof of how big I am getting. This may be the last time I'll be wearing my 2 pc bathing suit ever! lol.

We ended the night with a nice, romantic dinner on the beach at The Office
