Anni. Weekend + Baby Shower Bonus!

This weekend was good times all around.  My friends threw me an intimate baby shower and was even able to cater the menu with my gestational diabetes in mind.  I loved the decor, theme and of course the games!

Arnold and I also celebrated our 2nd year anniversary this weekend at Gary Danko, a premier restaurant in the city that I've wanted to check out for several years now.  We decided to give each other budget-friendly gifts for our anniversary so I decided to do some retail therapy before my baby made his debut.  Luckily several stores are currently having HUGE sales so I was able to score some goodies.

Parker Top + my new Tory Burch clutch (gift from my friend who does PR for T. Burch)

 You can't really see my necklace but I just got this from All Saints on sale and I love it!

Home stretch...

long time no blog.. I know. I'm at the home stretch of my pregnancy and into my 35th week.  The 1st trimester inched by so slowly but the 2nd and 3rd is just flying by.  While I'm counting down my last weeks of freedom, I'm overwhelmed with excitement. I can't wait to meet the little guy!

For the past 1.5 months I've actually been living a pregnant woman's dreaded nightmare: life w/o carbs and sugar!  I was diagnosed with gestational diabetes and have been pricking my finger 4x a day to monitor my blood levels. It's not fun..to say the least but if it's for the health of my little one, I can make the sacrifice.  To combat my low insulin levels I've been forced to be more active and have been going on hikes with the hubby.

Enjoying a night out on the town. Sporting my fav Vince leather jacket that is getting a bit tight on me!
