Happy Monday friends! Having the 4th of July fall smack dab in the middle of the week really threw me off, so I decided to take the rest of the week for a mini blogging break and do one big weekending recap!
4th of July sunset
We had a pretty low key holiday because we both had to work on Tuesday and Thursday – I’m saving all the extra days I can! It was crazy hot last week so we were trying to do anything and everything that had AC but still got us out of the house! We saw Oceans 8 for a little date night, enjoyed a lobster roll for the 4th and then had a small BBQ at our friends house that evening! Our fireworks started at 10:30 PM – isn’t that outrageous!? Needless to say, I was already in bed and didn’t see any!
Fried Olives & Fried Green Tomatoes
Friday after work we had a double date with our friends. Linda is a fellow Boston blogger & mama to be! They introduced us to Steel & Rye in Milton and it was my first time having fried olives, but I’d go back for those alone! Fun, laid back atmosphere with delicious food & great conversation – we ended up staying for almost three hours just talking and eating!!
Sunglasses I’ve had for 2 years – under $13!
Maxi Dress (TJ Maxx) Sunglasses// Bow Sandals (come in red as well) // Straw Bag (sold out) similar here
Saturday we spent ALL the time outside we could running errands before a friends BBQ! We are relishing these last few weekends, just the two of us!
We capped off the weekend with a surprise mini shower with Gary’s immediate family at my sister in law’s house. The desserts were insanely delicious & I couldn’t get over the “happy pushing” sign! I’m gearing up for a bit of a hectic week at work so here’s hoping it goes by fast!
How was your weekend? Link up below to share!

Having the Fourth fall on a Wednesday was super confusing and good idea to save all your vacation! We saw Oceans 8 over the holiday too, however I wish we finished off our date night with that lobster roll! Good luck with your hectic week and Happy Monday!

Girl, you guys had ya some fun and very yummy eats! I tell ya, you have had the most adorable dresses throughout your pregnancy, just gorgeous! Yay for getting your lobster roll and what a sweet mini shower! Sending you hugs and positive vibes for a sweet and smooth week!
Such a goos weekend. That food!!! Love it. You are glowing and beautiful girl!
The shower looks so cute! I can't believe the fireworks start at 10:30 pm! That is just crazy!
That shower looks so sweet! I can't believe you are getting so close!!! Ahh it's so exciting!! I have those same sunglasses from Amazon and love them!!
Goodness gracious I can't believe your fireworks start that late! Our city always does them around 9:30, but the best fireworks show around is always on the military base we have nearby. Their fireworks started at 10:40 this year, though. WHYYYY? Haha. Needless to say, we did NOT attend those. And that was such a cute little shower you had! I laughed at the happy pushing sign. I pushed for 3.5 hours with Jacob, so I wasn't so happy by the end. Haha.
Can't believe you are so close!!! Keep us posted in these last few days 😀

I’m loving these cute dresses you’ve been wearing lately! They look so comfy and I love the different colors and patterns. I feel like fireworks have been starting later around here each year. In recent years, we’ve done Brooklyn and other parts of New York and it seems to be the same, almost 10pm! We didn’t even bother trying to see them this year because when we used to, we always heard babies cry and didn’t want to scare Aviah. Plus, it’s way past her bedtime, lol. Anyway, thanks for sharing this recap with us. The baby shower your in-laws threw you looks adorable!

Still laughing at that Happy Pushing sign – too funny! A date night at the movies is such a great idea when it's so hot out, and loving how fab you look in that wrap dress! Have a great week <3

Such a thoughtful and pretty baby shower – the 'happy pushing' signs were brilliant! Greater maternity dresses by the way! You look incredible! Best Wishes for an easy and enjoyable 'home run' at work before your maternity break x By the way – those chips look really delicious!
How sweet of Gary's family and the Happy Pushing sign, you need to save that 😉 Hope your week isn't too stressful and goes by quickly!
They opened a Luke's Lobster in Hoboken and it is so good! I don't get there as much as I'd like but I can imagine the one by you is even better. Those stuffed olives look amazing too! I'm glad you had a nice week! I can't believe baby girl will be here so soon!! Sierra Beautifully Candid
You are looking just beautiful Biana! So sweet they threw you a surprise party too!

You always find a way to have SO much fun! I bet you and Gary are savoring these sweet final weeks of being a "duo" before becoming a "trio!" 🙂 All your meals from the week look so yummy- I shouldn't have read this on an empty stomach! ha!
You are just GLOWINGGGGG my friend!!!!
I am waiting with everyone else now for count down to see this sweet baby!
Love you got "showered" again. How loved is this little one!
Looks like you had a great week last week! How sweet that you got a surprise shower. 🙂
How sweet was that shower?! And you look so amazing!!
Looks like you had a fun week! It was odd to have July 4th on a Wednesday though. That little surprise shower is so cute!!!

Pregnancy suits you, look at that big belly. You are glowing Biana! Both of those comfy knit dresses are perfect for a pregnancy. I love the ruched knee-length dress. And such cute bow slides. But oh hey, give me the macaroons!
The surprise mini shower was so sweet!!!!! Enjoy the last few weekends together!! XOXO, R
The happy pushing sign is cute. What a great little treat from them. Sounds like a great week. I would have been in bed if my fireworks were at 10:45 too.
What a yummy weekend! How sweet for them to throw you a surprise mini shower!
What a fun weekend, Biana! You look stunning (as usual), and I swear, you have the pregnancy glow that women dream of! So glad you were showered again by sweet family! Happy Monday!
What a sweet weekend; the surprise shower had to be the perfect way to end it all!!
Our fireworks don't start until that time too; it's crazy! And I have those same sunglasses… couldn't beat the price. 😉
It sounds like you had a wonderful weekend. It's weird how the fireworks started so late. The shower also sounds so nice!!

What a sweet surprise shower– that pushing sign is too hilarious! That pizza looks delicious and fried olives sound sooo good! We were asleep far before any fireworks went off too.
OMG. Allllll the delicious food in this post. I'm obsessed with your bow sandals. I might have to stop by Target after work and see if they have any! Those are so cute!! Those shower decorations are so cute. I just love baby girl stuff!
Looks like a wonderful weekend.. look at all that food.
You look gorgeous.

I adore fried olives.
Love the mini shower stuff! So cute.
All of your food! I about died when i saw the fried olives. There used to be this amazing little Italian restaurant that had them here, and they have closed. I haven't seen them on a menu since. Guess I need to learn how to make them myself, right? I love your mini shower! How sweet!
You look beautiful Mama!! Sounds like such a fun weekend – that food is making me hungry 🙂
Girlfriend, you are ROCKING this pregnancy. You look more beautiful with every picture you post, I can't wait to see this little girl. How was Ocean's 8? We still need to see it. I love the surprise shower and fun signs, how sweet!
Everything looks so delicious, love the photos! mariannyc.com/2018/07/02/july-goals/
You look fabulous and so comfy in your maxi dress and those sunglasses. What a sweet surprise that Gary's fam threw you a mini shower with such cute details and yummy desserts! You deserve all the love as baby girl makes her way into the world! The 4th of July sunset is gorgeous but Ugh I would hate to wait for fireworks to start at 10:30am. I would be in bed too by then, not even pregnant. Emily @ Martinis & Bikinis
Oh my goodness all of that food looks so stinking delicious!
Your weekends always seem to be filled with the best food! xo Hope you are keeping cool, this time last year I was pregnant and remember it being so hot!
All the food is making me hungry 😉
