Friday night we took the boys out on a "date" to Dumpling Darling. It's a place in downtown Des Moines that makes steamed and fried dumplings. It was fun to have a chance of scenery and Henry loved the food, Wesley liked the food (the mac and cheese fried dumpling and rice), and Calvin ate Goldfish Crackers. 

Sunday night, one of Russ's former students was in town on college break, so we hired her to babysit the boys and we had a little date night. We went to the High Life Lounge in Des Moines which is basically straight out of the 70s and 80s!

Through my work with Des Moines Moms Blog, I have the opportunity to try out Burn Boot Camp in Clive for six weeks for free. My goal is to go three times a week, and so far I can barely walk or lift my arms, so its definitely a good workout, but also such a cool women-centered, friendly atmosphere!

Tuesday night this week, I went to the Des Moines Moms Blogs Contibutor's Favorite Things Party. It was a blast and I came home with a variety of fun things from sanitizing wipes, to a cute sign, to make up remover! I had so much fun I forgot to take any pictures!

Wednesday night I went with a friend to the Rachel Hollis Made for More documentary. It was so good and I'm really glad we snatched up tickets before it sold out!

How was your week?
