[She was in another world for that pic, but usually Bell will give me a smug face when the Pilot is petting her. Like โ€œSee? I win. Be jealous.โ€]

The Pilot and I got a lot done around the casa yesterday, since he was off work. I washed and organized everything from the baby shower, ran a few errands, took the day off from the gym since I was sore from Thursday Zumba and tubing classes, and then it was play time.

We went to Guadalajara Grill

and didnโ€™t even mess around with ordering entrees. We got all got a few appetizers to share since we werenโ€™t very hungry and usually end up getting full from chips and salsa anyway.

You canโ€™t really deny the salsa made tableside + fresh, salty chips:

Good stuff.

This morning, I figured it was a good day to include a little chocolate in my breakfast:

oats

Pumpkin protein oats with almond butter and a square of dark chocolate melted in

Thank you so much for the early morning birthday wishes <3 The Pilot is home this year, weโ€™re off to San Diego tomorrow am, and I get to teach Zumba, so Iโ€™m thinking it will be a good day.

Iโ€™m taking the GF chooclate cake with sprinkle frosting that the madre made- Iโ€™ll post a pic this afternoon since itโ€™s still at her house- to share with the girls at work. I like working on my bday, especially with the jobs Iโ€™ve been blessed with, and when people complain about working on their bday (or give advance bday alerts) it always reminds me of this hilarious skit:

Enjoy your Saturday and Iโ€™ll see ya later!
xoxo

Gina

    Major birthday wishes coming your way, Gina! I always remember your birthday because itโ€™s the day before mine, so since I started reading your blog a few years ago, I always think of you on November 12th. ๐Ÿ™‚ I am SO happy for you that you have your Pilot home this year, have a beautiful (and very blessed!) little girl on her way, and will get to celebrate in San Diego. Itโ€™s an awesome city. Cheers to what Iโ€™m sure will be your best year yet. ๐Ÿ™‚
