Muddy wheels, bare feet and pretty trees




This has been one of those perfect weekends where we did absolutely nothing special, but I'd love to just stay frozen in these few days forever! Friday, Vic and I met up with our friend Misty for dinner at Lubo. That place never fails to please. They've got these gorgonzola nachos that are to die for and a goat cheese burger that make me equally happy. Needless to say, it was a cheat dinner, but all that cheese and some Cooper's beers were well worth it!


Friday was pretty soggy, so I was extra happy when we woke up on Saturday to some of the most beautiful weather that we've seen in a while. The cutest thing happened that morning with Ryker, ok, one of the cutest things. A little back story....When Vic and I were dating, we'd be sitting at dinner or something and I'd look over to him just staring at me. I'm the worst with extended eye contact, so I'd look at his goofy little grin and just ask "what?". He'd always reply with a simple "just looking'" and keep on smiling at me. Saturday morning, I was holding Ryker while he drank his morning bottle, and after he finished we started watching Keeping Up with the Kardashians (don't judge). I look down at Ryker and he's just grinning at me and I asked him "whatcha lookin' at?" and he mumbled at me and kept on grinning. Like father, like son? It was so cute it almost had me in tears. He is just so much fun these days, he loves to cuddle and try to climb us, thinks my hair is extremely fascinating to play with and has just started crawling! He's extra sneaky about it, so if I ever manage to catch a video I'll let you know, but for now he seems to want to keep the whole crawling thing on the D.L. 

As I mentioned before, Saturday was some pretty fantastic weather, so we looked up a new state park and made our way down to Chesapeake to check out Otter Point Trail. I apparently didn't check it out very well, because we tried to brave the trail with the BOB and the pups and it was still way to muddy and full of soggy leaves for that to work. So, we took to the slightly less exciting, but still gorgeous, paved trail and had an awesome time! 





Sunday turned out to be an even more beautiful day, but we were super lazy and just opened up all the windows and did laundry, watched a million episodes of the Sopranos and watched Ryker try to crawl around. As always, I'm super stoked to get my training back on tomorrow, Sundays are always lazy and Mondays are always hit it hard days! I think I might try to start mixing up muscle groups this week and train everything more often, I also think Vic and I might do some measurements and photos tonight. I met with my surgeon this week and, while I'm probably getting worried for nothing, I'm starting to get stressed about the downtime after my surgery so I think I'm just going to do my best to train extra hard and eat as clean as possible leading up to it so that I feel well prepared for some healing!

Time to get some meal prep done and get the house picked up. Ryker likes to chill in his Bumbo chair outside with us, so we might even grill tonight's dinner and throw around the football. Ugh, I am just SO excited for this beautiful, sunny weather! It's officially "time to show off my pedicure" weather. I love it, makes me feel like I'm back in CA. I hope you had as special of a weekend as we did and that you're pumped up to get back into the game on Monday. Have a nice, relaxing, calm before the storm kind of Sunday night, I know we will!
