So the weekend sure was a busy one!!! To start things off I did a good clean of the house Friday night. It's amazing how much mess such a small toddler can make!!! Saturday morning we were up bright and early and at the grocery store for 8am. James is such a champ at the store, he enjoys waving to everyone and hamming it up with everyone. After that we met Jill at the coffee shop at the outlet for a birthday breakfast. James and I continued on our shopping journey through the outlet mall. I got some shoes and loungewear. I had birthday money to blow so I tried to get the most amount of stuff for my buck. I later when back out shopping to the mall (by myself this time) in search of a new purse and wallet. I found one that I absolutely loved and bought it.
Later that night we had Chinese at my parent’s house and Johnny brought over an ice cream cake (he knows the way to my heart!!). It was awesome. I had planned on running that night but felt like going to bed early instead… so I did!!
The next day (Sunday) we went to the Detroit Zoo. It was a great day and to sum it all up I will try to give you an abbreviated version of what James enjoyed most. The penguins were a big hit. However it is very hard to explain to a toddler that just because something swims underwater doesn’t necessarily mean it’s a ‘fishy’. He soon was amazed with giraffes. I don’t know why really but he really like staring at them and watching them eat leaves. He freaked when we left that area. And last but not least, the polar bears and seals were probably at the top of the list. Again, I don’t know how a ‘bear’ can be confused with a ‘fish’, but seriously… try explaining that one to a excited toddler who is fascinated with the swimming polar bear above him (we were in a cool underwater tunnel). We wrapped up the day with some overpriced hot dogs and chicken fingers and headed home. I did manage to make it out for a 3.5 mile run last night. I was tired to start but ended up with a huge burst of energy about half way through.
And here we are already at Monday again. So today I reluctantly pulled out my stretchy waistband dress pants. There’s no turning back now…my little pot belly is growing exponentially and I’m sure I wont be able to hide it from work much longer. It’s amazing how much sooner you show the second time around.
Well back to work. Here’s wishing everyone a wonderful start to their week!!
