Weekend Recap

I am having a hard time blogging on a regular basis this year! I keep hoping to get better, but we have been so busy!

We had a great weekend so I thought I would do a recap.

Friday, Jon finished up work early so we went to the park for some play time. After the park, we went out to dinner. We tried a new Indian food restaurant and really liked it. Aedan loves rice so he always enjoys Indian or Chinese food! Jon got a mango lemonade and may or may not have let Aedan drink about half of it.  Aedan was wired by the time dinner was over. He was laughing at everything and being pretty loud, luckily we were eating outside!

After dinner we did a little shopping. Jon and Aedan picked up some things at Petsmart  for Hiro, while I did a little browsing at Ultra and Charming Charlie's. I found a perfume that I love…I am not a huge perfume person, but I am thinking about picking this up soon.

I am on the lookout for a new everyday purse/diaper bag. I still love my cross body bag from Fossil, but it’s a little small when I am caring Aedan’s cup and a snack, plus my stuff. I haven’t found exactly what I want yet. Any good recommendations on diaper bags that don’t look too much like a diaper bag? :)

Saturday, we had a lazy morning. We were actually hanging around the house waiting for an ADT guy to come turn on our alarm system, but he never showed. Lame! Although it was nice to just be around the house with nowhere to go. After Aedan woke up from his nap, we went to run some errands before trying out a Pizzeria place that is close by. We gave it a B, it was good but nothing special.

We came home and I started baking a chocolate cake. Jon’s grandmother, mom and aunt all make the best chocolate cake ever. I don’t even like chocolate cake and I love this one. I decided to try out the recipe since I think I am going to make it for Aedan’s birthday soon. It turned out great!

My parents stopped by for the night on their way home from a conference in San Antonio. They got in around 9 and we all enjoyed some cake before heading to bed early.

Sunday morning we made a big breakfast with my parents before heading to the park for Aedan to play. My parents had to leave around noon, but Aedan had a blast with them!

After Aedan’s nap, we headed to the grocery store. We have been doing our grocery shopping on Sundays and it has been fun to go all together. We have also been trying to shave down our grocery bill and so far we have been doing pretty good. Hopefully we can keep it up!

Jon and I have become a little addicted to Redbox and since there is one at the grocery store, we picked up this move for Sunday night…

It was bizarre. Good acting, but a really strange movie. Not sure if I recommend it, but it was filmed in Texas and it was fun to recognize a few Austin locations.
