Birthday Weekend and 24 Weeks!

24 weeks and a few days late ;)  Not much to update things are still moving along smoothly and Little L is moving all over the place making my stomach jump and roll all over. I could sit and stare at it all day. 

In other news, this weekend was my birthday and my DH took me to the coast for a three day getaway. It was absolutely amazing and just what we needed. 

Friday we slept in and then headed out, we stopped on the way at a popular casino that has the best buffett.  Yummy yummy. We didn't gamble for very long because I didn't want to be around the smoke but I did win $130 on a machine before we got back on the road. :)  We arrived at the condo we were staying at for the weekend and it was so nice.  Two bedrooms, two bathrooms (both with large jacuzzi tubs) a living room, dining room and kitchen.  It was like our own little home away from home.

Saturday we slept in a little and then headed out to the local outlet mall. I had a blast shopping for Little L. He made a haul.  Heee heeeee heeee

After shopping we stopped at one of the famous Clam Chowder restaurants and had some yummy Slumgolion (sp?) and Halibut fish and chips. It was so delicious.

After lunch we headed to the local aquaruim. It was alot of fun and I had gotten a half off coupon on Groupon so that made it even better.  We bought Little L a baby stuffed turtle and a book about turtles. His nursery is going to be turtles and owls. (post on that later). This isn't a very good picture because of the flash but I wanted to get a picture of DH next to the crazy crab.  That is so not ok!!!  Good thing we don't live in Japan.  I would freak out if I saw one of these without 2 feet of tempered glass between us.

We went back to the condo to rest after the aquarium. My ankles were nice and huge after all that walking so I wanted to put them up for a while.  That evening we headed to the local casino since they have a nice non-smoking section and I could hang out in there while DH played some cards.  He has been wanting to go for a long time so it was nice he got to do something he wanted to do.

Sunday (my birthday) we got up early and headed for home.  We ate at a cute little breakfast joint then went into one of the local towns and did some window shopping and whale watching before leaving for home. 

On the way home we stopped at some popular outlets and I of course had to buy Little L some more clothes :)  The deals were just too good to pass up.  All of the clothes above we got at 70% off :)

By the time we made it home we were exhausted and headed to bed early so we could be rested for the Monday morning work grind but the weekend was so worth it.  I have the best DH in the world and am so lucky he spoiles me the way he does.  Such a great birthday weekend.  And, Little L was nice and active all weekend which made it even better :)
