Saturday started off with breakfast and a long morning walk to tire out Cooper. After our walk we went to home depot to pick up a carpet for our bedroom and also to purchase some carpeting for our stairs. We decided to cover up the hardwoods and thought it would be safer to have them carpeted for carrying a baby around the house.

In the early afternoon we headed to one of my friend’s daughters 2nd birthday party. Lilly is such a cutie and it was nice to hang out with some family friends.

Check out these cute mini mouse cupcakes…

For dinner Marc and I headed to Elm Street Oyster House a local restaurant. I was having a fish craving and they have tons of great options. I didn’t take a picture but I had one of the specials.  It was a pan roasted red snapper with a tomato and hearts of palm sauce on top and spinach on the side, it was delicious.

Sunday was when all the productivity hit. Marc went out and got us a pumpkin coffee which I was pumped about and he made us some eggs for breakfast. After we ate, we took another nice long morning walk with Cooper.  My mom came over to help us move some furniture in our bedroom (since I am not allowed to lift furniture) and we put our new rug down. During the whole process we did a lot of cleaning so our room is spotless!

Next came hanging our Gutter book shelves. Yes, GUTTER. They are literally the gutters you put on the side of your house but they are super cute as a bookshelf. Check it out…

 

We also hung the curtains in the nursery.. and the room is coming together quite nicely! The photo below is a little dark.. but you get the idea.

Grocery shopping was the next stop and we got some healthy food and snacks for the week. Including some steak for dinner… I guess the baby needed some iron!

Some meal ideas for the week are:

• Pan seared Chicken, Kale, & Tomatoes
• Turkey Meatloaf
• Baked Chicken Cutlets

And here is a quick belly shot of me from a few days ago.. I will have an updated pic for tomorrow’s post!

I have a very busy day ahead of me … I hope you have a good one!
