Ryan and I went to St. John as part of our honeymoon in 2007 and we went back again in 2008 for our babymoon. The island has become a very special place for us as we have celebrated two major milestones on its shores and it's one of our favorite vacation spots. Both times we visited, we ate at a place called Skinny Legs, which is a local and tourist favorite and it's the only restaurant we visited both times we were in St. John.
So maybe they don't have the best food or amenities and it's not even fully enclosed, but the atmosphere is amazing and we just loved the experience. In fact, it's the place where we learned that Hurricane Dean might threaten our stay during our honeymoon in '07. We were lucky that it ended up moving just south of us and only brought us 1 day of nasty weather.
On our most recent trip, we picked up a little onesie in the gift shop when we were leaving as I was about 25 weeks pregnant at the time. I put it away and forgot about it until this week when I finally came across it at the bottom of one of Austin's drawers. It was size 6-12 months which is a pretty good range so I was really hoping it would still fit him. We were in luck, but it is a little snug so I'm not sure how much use we will get out of it now.
For sentimental purposes, I took a bunch of pictures of Austin in his Skinny Legs onesie. The funny thing here is that Austin has about some of the chubbiest legs I've ever seen!

We loved skinny legs when we were in St. John for Christmas in 2007. And you are right, St. John really is a special place. It's so beautiful and peaceful!
