Birthday Weekend Recap

We had a fantastically busy weekend as I had posted about before...it was definitely as busy as I had anticipated. *struggles to keep eyes open*
Saturday was fantastic fun!
The hubby suggested we skip the farmer's market and hit up breakfast at Wild Fork & shop for a few items for my bday instead....ummm yes please! Jerm had the skillet hash *heart-attack waiting to happen but yet so damn good* thing, I enjoyed the raisin walnut french toast, and Jacob, well he enjoyed his usual. Then it was off to shop! Found lots of fabulous stuff at Ann Taylor Loft, only bought a few things though out of *a) refusing to buy all new tops due to the "mom boobs" b) losing another 20-30 lbs when it's no longer hotter than hell outside c) some cute things didn't fit due to a & b (above)* practicality. Then we headed over the Banana to see if I could find another pair of bottoms of some kind to start off the school year.  I was successful! Found a cute black knit skirt, great for the heat, great for school, great for date nights...perfect!

After our Utica adventures, we headed home for me and Jacob to change clothes because we had a baby shower to get to!  Off we went to celebrate baby Makayla and her mommy, my Kappa sister, Becky.  Jacob was perfect, and we all had a great time talking baby stuff. Then believe it or not we had about 2 hours to get home, get changed again (if necessary due to spit up and sweat from this insane heat), and make our way with Jeremy to my first grade teacher friend, Lyndee's wedding.  It's days like these that I am beyond thankful for an easy going baby and husband! We had a great time hanging out with some of my Grissom family at the wedding, and they loved seeing Jacob, who was well behaved, cute, & cuddly again! *pats self on back*

Sunday came and we decided to watch church the Harry Potter marathon on tv due to the exhaustion from the previous day's escapades. Then it was off again, this time to Jeremy's parents house for lunch with his family to celebrate mine and Aunt Kathy's bdays. We of course has to watch the Women's World Cup final....boo at the loss. It was a great time though!

Then Monday! My actual birthday!!!! It was a pretty typical Monday until hubby called around 2 and said he was coming home early...yes!!!!!! Jacob and Guinness were awesomely behaved, minimal spit up and barking...hey it's the little things right? ;-) My mom, John, mama, and sister Caitlin came up in the late afternoon for dinner at the Wild Fork (yes, I realize I chose somewhere I had already been that weekend...but it was for different meals and still yumminess....). We had a great dinner; hubby got me a cookie cake...yum! Love that man. 

Overall, it was a really nice weekend filled with friends, family, smiles, and laughs....I loved it!  It was great slightly weird turning 29!

Busy *Birthday* Weekend Coming Up

I haven't had a truly busy weekend at home in quite a while. I mean diaper changing and trying to fit in a trip to Target and Grogg's Green Barn in the same Saturday is busy now with a new baby, but this weekend might be a bit much.

Today: aka three days before my birthday...Mom and Mama are coming for a visit, have to run errands to get a baby shower gift, a wedding gift, and an allergy shot. (That's alot considering I don't do more than two errands at once with Jacob.)
Saturday: aka two days before my birthday...Farmer's Market, Utica (Jeremy's taking me shopping for my bday), Becky's (Kappa sister time!) baby shower, and then Lyndee's (Grissom family time!) Wedding.....man will we all sleep good that nite!
Sunday: aka the day before my birthday...Church then lunch with Jeremy's family (Case taco time!)
Monday: aka MY BIRTHDAY!!!!!! Yeaaaaa! My Mom, John, Mama, hopefully my sis Cait are coming up for my bday.  We going to go have dinner....this bday kid can't decide where to go.....too many options in this great place. =)

Here's hoping I survive....considering Jacob will be going everywhere with us! Happy Friday everyone!
