On my mind

Hey there!



Another weekend gone by too quickly. And my little bean turned 7 months on Saturday. If that’s not a wake up call on how fast time is flying, I don’t know what is.

 

 


Instead of writing rambling paragraphs, I’ll give you the bulleted version instead:


It seems I successfully blogged on my Mac, though I’m having a hell of a time figuring out all the ins and outs.
No matter how many spin classes I go to, I seem to forget that wearing a thong is not a bright idea.
Mommy groups are so different now that babies are moving — it’s awfully hard to chase your baby with a glass of vino in your hand (I kid. Sort of.)
I ordered some new work-type clothes from Gap last week and am happy to say my old size fits! Wheeeeee!
However, a pair of shorts weren’t doing it for me so I returned them and bought a pair of white shorts and plaid button down…for Bean.
1 pump of vanilla in a latte is actually enough. This reduced sugar undertaking may just work.
Bubbles is a great name for a wine bar.
The Olympics opening ceremony was weird. And boring. The actual Olympics, however, are thrilling!
I’m finding a renewed love for Whole Foods. They have local (well Berkeley) tofu in amazing sounding flavors like jalapeño and garlic black pepper. Must buy some…
I have a really hard time living in the moment, but I don’t rectify this, I will miss relishing the days of my baby boy’s life. Sigh.
Sitting by a pool and reading has got to be one of the most relaxing weekend activities.
You’re never too old or too young for swings

 







And with that, I wish you a Happy Monday!




Tell me something random that’s on your mind — oddly this provides serious entertainment for me

Cookie, Movie, Mac and more

Thank you once again for your supportive comments on my last post about body after baby.  I appreciate your suggestions and your compliments were so sweet.  Thank you for understanding!

Another weekend gone too quickly, but it was a good one.

The one downside is that Cookie (Bean’s grandma) left.  She was watching bean all last week and he absolutely loved it – and her!  Just look at that grin:

While she was here, she got Bean to start standing with support (against the coffee table, chair, etc).  She also got him to sit up on his own!  He’s been resistant on this, but finally can do it   Oh and she taught him how to read:

Kidding of course, but he sure looks engrossed.

Friday night, Zach and I had a date night and saw the new Batman movie.  It was phenomenal.  No, it was spectacular.  You have to know that I’m not much for fantasy, sci-fi type movies, but this blew away my expectations.  So so good. 

However, I cannot say how deeply saddened I am by the tragic events that unfolded Friday morning in CO.  My heart goes out to those that have lost loved ones and those that are injured.

Saturday was slow moving after my Spin class and I think the stagnation put me in a wee bit of a funk (<—hate when that happens).  Ultimately we decided to head to Los Gatos to one of my favorite wine bars: Rootstock.  Love it there.  After a glass of bubbly, I was a much happier girl.  The second bubbly made me happier yet – go figure

And after that, we made a purchase that lead to this:

Leaning tower of laptops? Nooo….

This:

My first Mac!  Meep!  Exciting huh?  I’ve been a PC girl my entire life but Zach has convinced me that Macs are superior so I bit the bullet. 

Oh and get this deal: ever since my other laptop died, Zach offered to buy me a 13” MacBook Air in exchange for me buying the plane tix to VA in September.  Little did he know that I had already bought the tix.  Mwuahahahaaha.  Sounds like a sweet deal to me!

Sunday morning I started off with Tina’s Best Body Bootcamp!  Technically it starts Monday, but I had Monday planned as my rest day so I started early   I have a feeling it’s going to kick my butt!

And last but not least, it was a mani/pedi day.  You see my nails above?  They’re pink.  I never do pink nails.  My toes match.  Who am I?

If you saw the new Batman movie, did you love it?

How do I blog on a Mac???  Currently I’m using Windows Live Writer on my netbook
