A Low-Key Weekend

Two posts in one day?  Pretty ambitious, huh?  If you haven’t entered yet, make sure you enter the Giveaway for a Cause!

To say this weekend was exactly what we needed would be an understatement.  It was a dreary, rainy weekend, so we spent it mostly inside.  Saturday started with our Weight Watchers meeting…and I’m totally recommitted.  I mentioned on Friday that we were thinking of starting a private weight loss group on Facebook – definitely let me know if you’re interested!  We then headed to Amphora diner for breakfast…if you’re local, you should try it.  It reminds me of a diner my mom and grandma took me to all the time back in Queens.  Chris got a gyro (typical him, getting lunch food for breakfast), and I got an amazing omelet – caramelized onions, bacon, and monterey jack cheese…might have been the best one I ever had.  Of course, Abbie got in on the fun with some pancakes!

After that, we headed to Costco.  We always love trips to Costco, but they got an amazing new self-scan system that made things so much easier.  I don’t know if every Costco has it, but if yours does, you need to check it out!  Plus, it was raining, so Abbie wore her new Dora jacket to Costco…it’s too cute.

Then we went home and watched the Hokies win…and took naps.  Abbie was a little cranky at dinner – I think her teeth are FINALLY coming in (I felt a ridge in her mouth!), so it’s expected.

Sunday we headed to Tysons Corner to walk around the mall with Abbie…and she got her first pair of shoes!  Baby sneakers are too cute.

I’m so happy we had a relaxing weekend after the whirlwind August and September we had.  Chris has the day off with Abbie today since her daycare is closed, and hopefully we’ll get to have lunch and I can show her off at work a little!

Linking up with Sami!
