Weekend Recap

Yet another fairly laid back weekend.  I know we need to cherish these while we can.  As soon as March hits, we are jam packed up until baby's arrival.   

Friday, 1/25
I left work a little early to get a much needed haircut and highlight.  I ended up chopping about 3 inches off just to make it more manageable.  My hair is super thick right now (pregnancy hair, I guess).  The added length was taking me far too long to dry.  It's now so much better!

Jason and I had dinner with my grandparents who we didn't get to see at Christmas finally!  Nothing like opening Christmas gifts at the end of January.  It was great to catchup with them (and eat Olive Garden salad).  Of course after dinner, Jason and I continued our Dexter marathon at home.  We are obsessed. 

Saturday, 1/26
J went bird hunting so I took advantage of some quiet time at home and puttered in the nursery and around the house.  I did my typical "Sunday chores" so I could enjoy girl playtime on Sunday.  I also managed to squeeze in a much needed pedicure, which of course I chipped within 2 hours of leaving the salon!  Jason was wiped after shooting birds all day (I know, that's terrible, but at least we eat the meat) so we did nothing Saturday night. 

I am reading Tina Fey's book, Bossypants at the moment.  I know it's old news, but it is so, so funny!  I recommend if you haven't read it yet, especially if you work full-time in a male dominated industry, or are a mother, or a woman, or just want a good laugh. 

Sunday, 1/27
After a lazy morning my mom and I had lunch at our favorite spot in town, Barnaby's (best Chinese Chicken Salad in the world) before heading over to Sara's for a Thirty-One Gifts shopping party she hosted. 

I had never even heard of Thirty-One Gifts before, but fell in love with the products, especially the Large Utility Tote after seeing Sara use it a few months ago.  They carry a wide variety of totes, bags and other pieces to help organize your life.  Most of the products can be personalized too!  So excited for the items my mom and I ordered to come in!  Sara caught me at a great time while I'm trying to get super organized for baby's arrival.  If you are in the Houston area and are interested in hosting a Thirty-One Gifts party, let me know!  I have an awesome consultant who I can refer you to.

Large Utility Tote in Black Pick Me Plaid, $35.00

Hope you had a great weekend too and a Happy Monday!  And for those of you who I heard from who went out and purchased Genie bras over the weekend, I hope you love them as much as I do.
