On Sunday, Jes was sick as a dog so it was a good thing I had some stuff planned that day.  In the morning, I packed up Kumquat and her stuff and headed out to Lafayette for brunch with Ranee and Steph.  Stephanie just announced to all of us (on NYE) that she’s expecting a baby in June!  Woohoo!  I couldn’t be happier for her and Nathan.  Ranee has been just as excited so we planned this brunch to get caught up and hang out.  It was freezing cold – I mean literally 32 degrees there that morning and little Sophie had to wear her beanie in the restaurant.  So cute!  There was also an extra spot at the table for Steph’s baby so we’ll have to plan another brunch a year from this day. He/she should be ready to sit in a highchair and grub with the rest of us!

Afterward, I met up with Michelle in Walnut Creek.  I had some errands to run there so it was a good place to meet up.  I hadn’t seen her since she and the family moved to Orinda.  Here we are at Peet’s Coffee waiting for Michelle.  I was so excited to see her that I forgot to take a photo.  We had lunch in a little diner and I had a surprisingly tasty cup of posole there!

Once lunch was over, Kumquat had fallen asleep in the stroller.  Instead of waking her, I decided to let her take her full 2-hour nap and I got to do some shopping!  Broadway Plaza has lots of good shops and I got an awesome parking space on the street.  It was perfect.  I picked up a new jacket for myself and some ridiculously cheap clothes for Kumquat at Gap.

Check out that price!  That cute purple shirt was $5.97 plus an additional 40% off!

What a good Sunday.  I got some girl time and alone time, Kumquat got a really good nap, and Jes got some rest too that day.
