Heaven can be found on earth....

I had a fabulous morning! For my birthday all of the parentals contrubuted to a day at Robert & Andrew Day Spa.....can I tell you how wonderful it was?! I would highly recommend it, I could see how once you start, you just want to continue going back!

It started with sitting by the fire filling out paper work. Then being issued a robe, sandles, towel, locker, and anything else you could possibly need. Then you go to the transistion area.....where they have lounging couches / chairs in a dimly lit room with soothing music playing. You can sip on hot tea or water with different citruis fruits in them and just relax. Then I was escorted to my massage room. I have never had a maternity massage before, the table that they have you lay on made me laugh. It was fun to lay on my stomach again if only for a moment!

Then I went back to the transition room with a neck soother on to wait to be escorted to lunch. Lunch was served in a dimly lit room with soothing music. The part that just blew me away was that they gave me an hour, a whole hour, to eat lunch, I don't remember the last time that I ate lunch with only my thoughts for an hour. It was fun to remind myself that I could eat slower, that there was no rush!

I then got a manicure and pedicure, which felt fabulous as well. The only thing missing was the 2 hour nap afterward! It was heavenly!

That does sound heavenly! I think the lunch part is what got me - I don't think I've eaten lunch alone in years!:) Glad you got to have a nice relaxy time!!
