Friday:
Friday was a SUPER long day. Dominick and I got up and he went to daycare. I spent the rest of the day cleaning the house, running errands, and making chocolates. After Nick got home and picked up Dominick for me, I ran to the grocery store. We were having one of Nick's old co-workers over for dinner and I didn't have anything to make. So I ran to Schnucks. I got the ingredients for a lasagna and salad and some garlic bread and headed home to cook real quick. Luckily dinner turned out fine and we had a good time. They left around 9ish and I changed clothes and headed up to the Relay for Life. I got there around 9:30 and started walking with my friend, Abbie. I told her I couldn't stay long and would only walk 3 miles. Well that turned into 4 miles which turned into 5 miles which turned into 6 miles, which turned into "Let's Run a Mile!" which turned into we have to do a cool down mile....I ended up doing 8 miles. I was proud of that. (Although not as cool as Abbie who stayed all night and did 18 Miles!!) I ended up leaving around 2 a.m. I went home and went to bed only for Dom to wake up at 3:30. I got him back down around 4 and then he was up for good at 6:45.
Here's a few pics of Friday night (courtesy of Abs):
Saturday:
Well, like I said, Saturday started bright and early. Nick had to work so it was just me and Dom. I got up and continued to make the chocolates for Michelle's bridal shower. Around 10 I got ready to head out to my mom's, which is where the shower was. It took me about 4 trips to my car to get everything loaded. It was so HOT! I started the car early (I didn't want my son to suffer or my chocolates to melt). Then I brought out my stuff to make my fruit salad, my computer, my camera, the diaper bag, my purse, the presents, the chocolates and finally Dom. It was a lot. When I got there my aunt Lisa came to watch Dom while my mom and I finished up. The shower ended up being really fun and we had a great time.
Here's a picture of some of the bridesmaids and the bride at the shower (Left to Right - Suzanne, Meghan, Michelle, Ashley, Winnie):
And me and Dom at the shower:
Straight from the shower I headed to Nick's sister, Kate's house for her daughter's first birthday party! Little Jillie is one! We had a good time, although I almost fell asleep the whole time! And Kate took a cute picture of all the grandkids with Nani. I don't have a copy of that yet but I'll post it when I get it. I'm sure it's adorable.
We left around 9ish and went home. We fed Dom and put him right to bed and then Nick and I crashed. We were both so tired.
Sunday:
Was a lazier day but we still had stuff to do. We had my family reunion. At first we were going to skip it but a lot of people there had never met Dominick. I was barely pregnant at the last family reunion. I'm glad we went. We were going to go to the movies afterward (my cousin was going to watch Dom) but he was so tired that he cried and cried so we just went home. Thank goodness we did! Nick and I were asleep with Dom by 9!
It was a LONG weekend, but we had a good time. It's the summer though. I think every weekend from here on out is going to be a LONG weekend!
Happy Summer!
