Jer and I took a trip in April for 10 days without kids to Panama and Costa Rica. It was WONDERFUL! and much needed. We stayed with a classmate of Jer's in Panama. We flew in his private plane from the Pacific to the Atlantic ocean in about 30 minutes- with amazing views of the jungle and the Panama Canal. It's a beautiful country- quite modern and quickly growing, but also has a lot of rainforest uncut, and gorgeous beaches.

Then we flew on a little plane to a small town in the west of Costa Rica- Nosara. A tiny airstrip and dirt roads were all we could see from the air. We stayed in a house in the jungle, overlooking the ocean. We met Jer's brother and his wife Lauren there, and spent 3 days together, before they went home- and we had 3 days to ourselves. The boys surfed, we went deep-sea fishing one day and caught some huge yellow-fin tuna, and we went on a canopy tour. (the people leading the canopy tour weren't very happy about me going pregnant, but I won, and had a super time). Jer and I relaxed and explored and dreamt, and had such a wonderful, romantic, fun time together. I really love that boy, and I'm glad to not have to share him with school anymore!
