Shopping!

Randy and I went shopping this past weekend for my birthday! It was such a blast. We left the kids with my parents, and I missed them like crazy and was a nervous wreck about Gaby (her first ever sleepover), but I got over it with some retail therapy! I spent boatloads of money and got tons new clothes. 4 pairs of shoes, 2 jackets, 1 dress, 1 bathing suit.....etc... I used to think I didn't like dressing up, and buying clothes, telling myself I didn't need new and fancy stuff...but boy was I wrong! (I still don't think I NEED it, but I do LOVE it). All in all we had a great, relaxing, fun time. I don't think I'll need to buy any new clothes for awhile...but don't hold me to that! I have a dress I bought not too long ago, and planned on wearing it this weekend, but never ended up getting the chance. The night before we left though, I tried it on and got Randy to snap a picture of me. Keep in mind, it's 11:30 at night, I look like crap and Randy was laying down in bed when he took the picture, but you get the idea...

This weekend also involved a lot of eating out. We went to Boston Pizza both nights around 10pm and ate lots of cheap appys...but it was fun and well worth it. So don't be surprised when you see my weight jump up a couple pounds this week, because I won't be! Lastly, I am running my 2nd 10k race this Sunday. I am really nervous. I finally looked up the course, and it's pretty much one big steep hill! What's the worst that can happen?
