We had a whole lot of nothin' planned for the weekend and that's just the way we like it. We had a lazy morning wandering around town and then grabbed lunch at Empire Burger.
Check out my motley crew....
Gwyneth walked with her hands in pockets to immitate her Godfather
It was about 10 degrees cooler than we would have liked, but no one really complained. We were all just happy to be away for a weekend.
I know I said in my last post that the orange soda was going to be a one-time treat, but to keep the peace and the happy-go-lucky feel of the weekend I let Annabelle order another 'beer' at lunch. She only drank about a quarter of it, but just wanted to be able to cheers Consuelo. My favorite quote of the weekend was when she walked away from the table to use the potty and said "oh man, Gus is going to drink my beer". Such an insightful chidl!
Not quite ready to let my little one have soda yet, but she did get a very watered-down lemonade. She certainly didn't want to miss out on the 'cheers' either.
A fun time was had by all... (this is why Gwyneth has to be strapped in - she's my climber. It's amazing how quickly she can get out of a high chair these days!)
After lunch, Consuelo and I took the girls back to the condo and the guys went to play pool. Consuelo got a little work done while I tried to get the girls to sleep. They were so wound up and it took about an hour for them to finally calm down. Consuelo seemed to really enjoy hearing the little "Mommy, Mommy, Oh Mommy!" every few minutes after I left their room. Once they finally crashed, they slept about 2 1/2 hours and Consuelo and I had some much needed girl time to chat and catch up.
