We are so relishing our opportunities to basically spend all our time (when not working) doing whatever we want. This is such a great city to do that in cause geez there is always something going on. Although I hear that when the winter rolls around all that slows down but I don't really have an issue with that as soon I won't be able to waddle as far.
It is hard to tell there is a bump from this picture, but it is also harder to take a picture of yourself than you'd think, especially when you have a ginormous phone that is difficult to hold in one hand.
I am basically just now getting to the point where I am noticeably fatter mostly in my stomach rather than just sort of getting chubbier everywhere. Although, I am still calling it that I don't look pregnant, just fatter. Most of the time it doesn't register for me that I look any different, until I try to put on some clothes and then it hits home. Ah well, all for a good cause eh;)
We did at least get some exercise in this weekend. We walked all over the place, first on Saturday at the Chalk art festival which was very cool. They had three zones across downtown, one of which had a stage and another with a featured 3D artist.
We had never even been to this little Centennial Square, with its cool fountain.
Stopped for some delicious pizza as a lunch date. We accidentally ate out a lot this weekend but deemed it worth it.
Cutest husband ever
For all you cat lovers out there
3D in progress.
The portraits were amazing
Sunday we hit up the grand opening of our permanent public market and it was so cool! Right now it is mainly just places to eat as they haven't gotten it completely set up, and the Farmer's Market portion is only on Wednesdays, but I'm thrilled they got this going. It reminds me of the Pier in San Francisco on a much smaller scale. So enjoyable, and a super delicious place for lunch. My little hipster heart was loving the fresh bread and goat cheese that I got and I made some of the best sandwiches ever with it later that night.
The Salt Spring Island goat cheese stall. Amazing stuff and lots of free samples = a win
K even got to try some goats milk ice cream and it was delicious.
He was the most excited for the chicken pot pie from the Pie Co.
I chose a sandwich from Roast, the place where delicious smells are born.
Roast beef with onion jam and chimichurri sauce.
So yes, we spent most of the weekend walking and eating and it was a wonderful combination.
Yesterday I got off work so excited about how it smelled and felt like Fall (how has this become a thing we make fun of girls for? For shame all you cynics, I've always loved Fall and I'm not stopping now) that we immediately declared the need for Soup and Halloween Candy (alright this one was my pregnant body, that has wanted Halloween candy since about two weeks ago).
The Hot and Cold Cafe was an adorable and very home made little shop down in Cook Street Village and the perfect place for half a corned beef sandwich and a bowl of Chicken Pozole. Yum
Cap that off with a blanket nest and a movie with my love and I'm a happy lady.
One who may or may not have convinced her husband it wasn't too weird to put up the Halloween decorations already...I didn't make him do the window cling though so the neighbors still don't know how crazy I am.
