It was finally (after two weeks of cold, rainy and gloomy weather) warm and sunny this weekend and we took advantage of that and spent a ton of time outdoors. One major bonus of living in Houston is our mild winters. Enjoying time outdoors sans snowsuit in January is pretty awesome.
Outside time + toddlers = happiness and nice long naps.
There’s this great park near our house that’s always packed and has lots of different play areas plus a stationary train. We recently learned that a park even closer to our home is being completely renovated, and I can’t see what they come up with because park time is also a great way to meet other families in our area!
When we weren’t outside, we relaxed, read, had our faces squished, and gave Lulu lots of love…
Today Harps and me made a quick trip to Michael’s to pick up some Valentine supplies and then we met Megan and Olivia at City Centre and had lunch at Ruggles Green. Harper came with presents in hand- My Little Ponies and Frozen necklaces, of course.
My salad was delicious and Harper very much enjoyed her grilled cheese and fruit.
After playing, we did a little shopping at Anthropologie. I’ll share some of my purchases in my next post— but how gorgeous is this stuff?!
We also picked up Olivia the Ostrich to our growing collection of long-legged birds. They’re best friends already!
Harper took a nap when we got back from our lunch and shopping trip (three whole hours! hallelujah!) and then we took our well-rested gal to the park for some fun.
Looks like a fun weekend! Ours was extremely uneventful in the most wonderful way. And I totally agree with you on Sunday night sleeps…I always have a hard time going to bed and then pay for come Monday morning!
I can't go to sleep on Sunday nights either! It's like I am trying to make the weekend stretch as long as possible or something and then I am so tired on Mondays. I can't break the cycle.
I can definitely relate! I fall asleep easily other weekend nights in front of a movie or tv but not before a long week ahead. Hope you had a good Monday!
Ugh, I can relate to you with regards to Sunday's. I have the blues…never understood the phrase "Sunday Funday." As soon as night time hits, my heart starts racing, a million thoughts go through my head about work and the week ahead, and before you know it, my alarm is going off 🙁 Hope you got through your Monday okay 🙂
