So yes, it is indeed Monday, but the great news is, another weekend begins in just five days!
I had a really great weekend. While I do love having plans, sometimes it's so refreshing to have a fly-by-the-seat-of-your-pants sort of weekend. It's a true departure from the scheduled predictibility of the workweek.
Our weekend highlights:
Friday
After-work run with the husband around the neighborhood and then a walk with Drake
Pizza date night at a local joint. The pizza was just okay, but we scored a seat on the patio overlooking a below patio with live music. Definitely the highlight of the dinner!

Breakfast prepared by Ian
Finished Season 1 of Dexter (o.m.g. we can't wait to start Season 2)

Meal planning for the week
Ian watched the Raiders dominate
I treated myself to a farewell-to-the-weekend cocktail
Dinner highlight: Ian said I "cook enchiladas like a rockstar"

It was nice not to have any major plans on the agenda.
Also, love the baby bumps. You weren't kidding when you said A LOT of the people you know are pregnant.
I guess you and LuLu really do have that in common.
That drink looks delicious
