~What a fun weekend! Eeek! The weather was amazing on Saturday and we spent the entire day outside. It was so so so nice. We also had a family dinner at P.F. Changs on Saturday night and I think WB found a new favorite restaurant. He ate everything. Including a fortune cookie. All with no teeth. Sunday was cold and rainy, but L and I did get a chance to have a silly string war which we have been wanting to do for ages. Then we set off to lunch and to the mall for a little shoe shopping. Umm, WB has the smallest one-year-old feet ever. He wears a 2.5. Here are very few stylish summer options at that size. I wanted to get Keens, but they don’t start until until a 4. I think we did okay though (you should be able to see them in the Instagram feed to the right). Ohhh, and if you need to entertain your kids at Nordstrom, may I suggest their dressing rooms? That special platform and all those mirrors are instant entertainment.

~Speaking of Instagram, I am thinking of getting rid of the feed on here. I figure if you wanted to see the pictures, you’d be following on Instagram and if you’re not, you probably don’t care about them? Right? Wrong? Would you care if they were gone? I want to add a blogroll in it’s place so I can share my favorite blogs. Let me know what you think because if people like the Instagram there, I’d hate to remove it!

~I’ve only mentioned it like a million times, but B ran (and finished) a half marathon this weekend. His first half ever and the first time he has ran more than 8’ish straight miles. The kids and I waited for him at the finish line, but my mom went to a few different spots along the route to cheer him on and, of course, snap some pictures. His goal was to finish in less than 2 hours and he succeeded by finishing in 1:54:05. Considering that I cannot even run ONE MILE in an 8:43 pace, much less 13, I am very impressed! I think his next race few races are 5K’s, but I know he has a Tough Mudder at the end of June. And luckily, he hasn’t mentioned anything about me running anything with him, so hopefully he forgot. I am sore just thinking about it ;).

~Is anyone watching the Celebrity Apprentice?  Anyone but me?  This show cracks me up.  I can’t even figure out what Gary Busey has ever been in that I would have seen, but I kinda want to find out.  He’s nuts.  And also, I cannot believe that Donald Trump has never had a drink??   I also love The Amazing Race and am very excited to watch next weekend to see who wins.  I am hoping for the hockey boys.

~I had two, yes two, Diet Pepsi’s this weekend.  I don’t know what else to tell you other than that I was thirsty.  And they were good ;).  However, I am still pleased to say that I have not bought any for the house, which is huge.  It’s a LOT more work to take two kids out to eat to get a soda than it is to walk to the fridge to grab one, so I’m guessing my soda consumption is going to be very limited!

~I did NOT accomplish my goal of finishing my subscription box reviews this weekend, but you can expect reviews for Hello Fresh, Little Passports and BlushBox soon!  I am getting a few different boxes this weekend, including Julep, Stork Stack and Birchbox Man and seriously, I think that is it!  What are you expecting this week?
