This weekend was a busy one for us. Mom had the day off on Friday so she came over and helped me clean our place and get a few things situated and I worked during part of the day from home. It was Mike's first day off on a Friday night so we wanted to celebrate that when he got off from school, dad met us at our place and we all went to eat dinner at Tom Ham's Lighthouse. At first we were all bummed when we realized that they had changed the menu, but got to order from their "all day" menu and that made us all happy!
On Saturday Mike went surfing in the morning and it was more baby stuff at the house for me! Then, for dinner, we were invited to our friends house and watched "The Lovely Bones." Not exactly a feel-good-type of movie, but we still had a great time eating and hanging out.
On Sunday, Mike wanted to surf so I thought I'd make some good use of my time invited my older sister to hang out and shop with me! As much as I have been trying to hold off on buying anything new since I'm almost done with the growing belly bump - I couldn't resist and told myself that 3 more weeks, is still 3 weeks of not having much to wear so I caved in. We went to Nordstrom and to my luck, the new fashion this spring and summer seems to be pants and shorts with elastic bands instead of zippers and buttons so it worked out perfectly! I was able to buy a couple pairs of shorts and some cute skirts. Hooray - I have bottoms to wear for the rest of the month and also after the baby is born! They are super comfy and cute so I'm really excited.
When I got home, Mike was putting together the "Snap and Go" stroller we bought using the gift cards from our showers. Although we got a beautiful travel system (the jogger stroller) from Dad and Bev, Mike thought it would be a good idea to get something a little smaller for local trips that we could easily pick up and go so we got the Snap and Go! We also installed the seat protectors and the car seat bases in both our trucks and are officially ready!
