Pregnancy Update – 26 Weeks

Tony and I had a great time in Milwaukee and visiting his parents. I had a cold all week, but I didn’t let that ruin our vacation. I took it easy with exercise and made sure to get lots of rest. We went to a couple good restaurants, went to a Brewers baseball game and spent a lot of time walking around Milwaukee. We were only able to see his parents for two days, but it was really nice to catch up. Tony’s Dad just had knee surgery and has been stuck in the house for weeks so we took him on a couple adventures out of the house and he said it was the most fun he’s had in a long time. 🙂
