A Visit to the BFF's.

My BFF and Jake's BFF that is! We went to visit the Martini Family in Virginia over the weekend & were very lucky to have gorgeous weather the whole time. We were able to take the boys on two walks and one trip to the park.

As you can see from this picture, Jake is still a binky thief (please note the look of sheer terror on poor Ben's face as he realizes what is about to happen)

It was also Dennis's birthday weekend, so Melissa & I walked to the local grocery store to get a cookie cake for later that night...after some uh, miscommunication at the bakery, this is what the cake ended up looking like:

But it tasted good, so that's all that matters...and we got a good laugh out of it. It was a great weekend, but always hard to return to Pittsburgh without Melissa, Dennis and Ben being with us. :(

Wii UNfit

Part of Brian's birthday present was a Wii Fit. The good news is, he loved the gift...the bad news is, we learned just how out of shape I really am. You have to register your Mii and go through a few questions and fitness/balance tests to determine your "fit age"...my fit age is 47. I'm 27. Excuse me while I go hang my head in shame.

To add insult to injury, once I signed my Mii off and my sister-in-law signed hers back on, a message popped up for her that said something along the lines of "Emmy sucks and should be humiliated by how out of shape she is...please try and motivate her, she obviously needs all of the help that she can get". Ok, so maybe those weren't the exact words, but it was something harsh like that!

I think I'll be sticking to Mario Kart, that's my favorite game anyway...and it doesn't require getting off of the couch.
