Weekend Update

We had our first "night out" since Claire was born. We joined a wine club that meets once a month/rotating houses. It was so much fun to visit with everyone and try some new wines. The criteria:

This month's theme was 2005 Central Coast. We each bring 2 bottles at 15.00 or under & 1 bottle of anything that's 6.00 or under.

We brought a Sterling Pinot (I think??) and someone else brought the Sterling Cabernet (I really liked it). We only got 4 glasses into it when we learned Claire wasn't sleeping for Lindsay and Jordan. She just wasn't having it ... so we came home. She just wanted Mama, because I had her asleep in about 5 minutes, and then she slept through the night!

I got to dress up and sleep all night. Not to shabby, no?

Yesterday I was flipping through Real Simple Magazine, and came across a workout top that I had to share: Sports Bra

Running in a t-shirt is too cumbersome and hot -- and I am not brave/skinny enough to run in just a normal sports bra, so I loved this new style. The magazine shows it in the color navy, which I am parcial to - so I am on a hunt for it at Dicks or Sports Authority (ordering online, especially when we just got 5" of snow today would be wayyyy too easy).

And I just got an email from J.Crew with this cardigan:I am loving them these days. My sister is the queen of layering, and she talked me into a black dress (totally a summer time one - cotton, with spaghetti straps) with tights, and then a cardigan over it (wore it the other night) and now I want to wear cardigans with jeans, and shorts this summer. Plus, their prices (while still high) have come down a bit. Making one not such a huge deal, especially when you can wear it with so much.

Anyhoo, that's all I've got. Happy Monday!

Grandparents -- I didn't take a single picture of the kids this weekend. I will be better and try for some today.
