Photo is from last week at 32 weeks - still feeling good, yet getting sick of my clothes - only certain dresses fit well now and I'm looking forward to those fall clothes after baby!
We had a bunch of our closest friends from out of town stay with us the night before the shower and they were the perfect first house guests! We had a pizza party, hung out on the deck and it was such fun to host and have the house filled.
Speaking of the shower weekend - I always love things to look at after the excitement is over - these bucket lists were the perfect touch - Derek and I had the best time going through them a few nights later. We also went back through all the gifts and felt so spoiled and loved. The leftover flowers really brightened up our kitchen and a few of the arrangements are still going!
So many of our date nights now are spur of the moment or surrounded by errands (one of my goals for the final weeks of pregnancy is to get in a good date night each week) so last week we set off on a day date before leaving for the lake. The weather was wonderful - we had Mexican for lunch on a rooftop and then went to a new cookie dough place - my new favorite obsession!
I wasn't overly into the Lilly Pulitzer sale this year so I logged on about 8:05, went out to walk Stella, came back and was up in line to shop. I picked just a few accessories as I'm trying to focus on fall clothes/baby shopping but it's too good to skip out on completely.
How fun to have all your friends stay over with you- a pizza party is thes best way to end a good weekend!! Yay for scooping up a few goodies in the Lilly sale too!
ReplyDeleteWe had people fills out advice cards at our wedding reception and it was so fun going back through reading them the next week! Hope you got some good stuff at the Lilly sale....I didn't shop this year, but kind of wish I did.
