Our last trip alone?

Find below our first trip to D.C! There are more pics on Facebook but here are a few that involve the baby. The first pic is actually an infrared camera that highlights Jack pretty well as the yellowish green blob on/ in me. It is very cool but made me wonder if I didn't know I was pregnant what a way this would be to find out! I half expected him to be waving at the camera as if to say "yes, I'm here... let me out!" This pic by the way was at the National Air and Space Museum. The following two pictures are Kermit, who had an audience but eventually got to meet Jack and us two in front of the White House.
The White House was just one stop on a very long, snowy, slippery trek to see the sights of D.C. We walked (while holding onto John the whole time) from the hotel to the National Monument, Lincoln Memorial, The Vietnam Wall, The White House and back towards the Hotel to the Natural History Museum and American History Museum to end the day inside where it was warm. Overall I think we might have walked 5 miles in one day, it was a great time! We crashed back at the hotel and got some very overpriced Pizza Hut delivered to the room but it was worth not having to put my shoes back because it would have also included getting off the bed!
Sunday we got up and did more walking, but not nearly as much and spent the day in the National Air and Space Museum and visited the Holocaust Museum before heading home.
This was such a great trip that John was so excited to receive as a birthday gift and enjoyed completely! His only wish is that we can do it all again when Jack is out on his own!
