I got to have two date nights this week!! Normally with work and the gym me and my baby only get one date night a week but this week I was blessed with two!!! On Tuesday we had tickets to a Pirates Game at PNC Park and then on Wednesday we went on a river cruise down the Ohio, Monongahela and Allegheny rivers in Pittsburgh! This picture below is us in our Pirates gear!!

I am obsessed with lipgloss I found in Sephora called Buxom. It is amazing! It tingles and shines and plumps your lips. It is a little pricey at $19 a tube but is soooo worth it!  I love it soooo much. Each week I run out and buy a new color! Truly obsessed...have any of you ever used this? AWESOME!

I have been stalled out on my weight loss and hit a huge plateau so yesterday I started the Atkins diet for a little kick start into more weight loss. I work out a lot and just eat the wrong things I guess and this always has jump-started me in the right direction in the past.  I know a lot of people say it unhealthy but so is being overweight :-)  I have stocked up on bacon, pork rinds and cheese.  I love meat!!! Only doing it for a short period to start that Ketosis again!

Will be spending my Labor Day holiday weekend with a few of these adorable children that I cannot get enough of (my nieces and nephew) and also with my sweetie and his youngest boy!! It will be a weekend filled with skiing and tubing and fun fun fun!!!! What an awesome weekend this is going to be!

Next week is ANOTHER vacation!! WHOOPIE!!! I am off to Ocean City, MD with my best friend on this planet!! We are hitting a conference in OC for four days (and living in the Hilton on the boardwalk) and I figured with the holiday I may as well go all out on the vacation days so I do not have to return to work until Sept 9th!!! Can I get a whoop!!?!?!?!?

I hope you all play along!!!! Have a great weekend and HOLIDAY!
