Last weekend, David and I made the trip to St. Louis, MO! Two of our best friends from med school, Pace and Sarah Johnston, are now living there for residency along with one of David's friends from GA Tech, Jennifer Sehn. Jennifer was getting married this weekend, so we thought it would be a great time to visit our friends. My wonderful parents kept Andrew for the weekend. It was our first weekend away from him and he did great! Yay! Relief to this mommy!! The Johnstons are wonderful hosts! They did a great job showing us the highlights of the city! We had such a great time!
Back together again!!
Did I mention Sarah and I are both expecting a baby 3 days apart?!?! Can't believe I get to experience this excitement with one of my best friends!!!
First stop, Soulard Farmer's Market. One of the oldest markets in America.
Such a neat atmosphere!
Don't worry.. I was able to find the one donut stand in the mist of the fresh produce!
This pregnant mommy sure is happy!
Typical! David with his banana and me with a donut!
On to the St. Louis Gateway Arch!
