Back to another crazy week!

After coming off another great weekend, its hard to get back to the grind and focused again on Mondays! This weekend was packed full of great events and memories. We are so lucky and blessed to have such full and exciting lives...
Saturday was Stacy's baby shower, which I had been looking forward to. I'm so glad she gets to do all this first so I can learn from her. I picked up Jackie and we stopped at Burlington Coat Factory to check out the cribs at Baby Depot there. I had already spent and evening with Kennie and we narrowed it down to 1 that we liked. I was bringing Jackie for her opinion. While we were there, I we ended up going over to the mark down isle and the original plan went out the window. There was a $500 dresser marked down to $240...Needless to say we changed crib and dresser designs and went with this one! It was a MUCH nicer dresser and crib. Its so huge, it could be used as a buffet also. So on the spot we made the purchase...Both items, with a 10% coupon for $531 w/tax...we couldn't beat it! Now we just have to pick it up...and Kennie is excited to just have a crib to put together and not a dresser also! My grandma Alice worked at that store for a while...and I know that was her watching over us that day and giving us her special discount! I'm just sooo glad crib shopping is done! And yes....Stacy's shower was awesome...my day was going too good!

Sunday we spent the day with the Conorozzo Clan....Shannon, Frank, Tuscan, Matteo and Vincenzo came from Buffalo to spend the day with us. We meet at the zoo and had a great time. It was soo awesome to see Tuscan so into all the animals...After some stops we finally made it home before the rain and got everyone into the house. We have an enjoyable afternoon catching up on scrapbooks and playing with the kids. We got Tuscan a tent set for his birthday and it was soooo fun watching him play and loving his new present. My "hand me down angel" Shannon of course came with all kinds of goodies..Diapers, cereal, and a HUGE bag of maternity clothes...I am so lucky to have her, and it was so great to spend the day together! In the past our friendship has had rocky points, but once again we picked up and everything is going great and our friendship is thriving again!
The big corporate challenge is tomorrow, and I would like to get a few more things around the house taken care of, so this weekend I can enjoy the backyard for once!

Here are a few pics from the past week...





We are really enjoying the new swing!
