It was such a nice weekend for us. The long weekend gave us the chance to get out of the house and head to Des Moines for a little shopping. I think we all needed a little road trip and to get out in the world. Rob and I each had Old Navy gift cards and both needed new jeans so we were on a mission. I had some luck but Rob did not. In fact, after going to two Old Navy stores and looking online, we still can't get the jeans he likes in the right color and size. They will have them again so we'll just hang on to the gift cards for now. We picked up a few other items at the Jordan Creek mall and had lunch at the food court. Sadly, we waited too long to get something to eat and by that point, I had no patience for waiting for my food. Somebody feed the pregnant lady now! We wore Rex out that day and had to head back home before we made it to all the places we wanted to go so we will have to go back soon.
I managed to sneak out yesterday for a few hours to run a few errands while Rex was napping. I really wanted to go to a scrapbooking store in the Des Moines area so I headed back that way for a little funtime mommy shopping. It was overwhelming. But I get a little crazy just going through the 4 or 5 aisles at the local arts and crafts store. First I wandered around the store and just looked at everything then I went around again to make my selections. They had a lot of items specific to Iowa and even central Iowa which was really cool. I picked up a lot of fun paper as well as some stickers and embellishment items. I was all excited to get some pages made during Rex's nap today but after my chores and blogging, I don't think there will be any time. Don't expect any posts tomorrow though because I will definitely be working on my scrapbooking then!

That's soooo pretty!!! I want to see more pics! Too bad it doesn't get pretty like that in Fresno when it's foggy. hmm...it's raining cats and dogs out here now. I took a rainy day and called off work so I wouldn't have to drive in it. :)
