My very first Mother's day!




What an amazing first Mother's day!

Just thinking about it, last year, I didn't technically "know" I was a mom yet on Mother's day! We had an inkling, and the dogs were acting way funny, so we thought...maybe! But it was in fact a year ago TODAY we found out we were going to be parents! What an amazing day that was! I remember Matt was so happy he told me to get dressed up and take me to my favorite (actually the only one I like) fancy restaurant for dinner. Only, we got there, and I couldn't eat about 90% of the menu after finding out we had a little bun in the oven :) And we sent the sommolier away with the wine, and actually had to ask the chef to prepare a vegetarian entree for me (the meat/seafood on the menu that night was of course either raw, undercooked, unpasteurized), but needless to say we toasted with seltzer and I thoroughly enjoyed my pea puree ravioli. Amazing that I can remember that!? And...about a week later the morning sickness started, as did my ginger ale and saltine diet. Is it weird that part of me misses that? (You can roll your eyes now)

Anyway, My mother's day this year was amazing. Matt cooked me breakfast in bed before Colby woke up, Colby hand delivered my card (I cried) and gift of a nice pedicure and massage. I can't WAIT for time to get that!



We also decided to just go sit by the lake and lay under a tree in the nice weather and look for turtles. Colby had an amazing nap outside, and thought the tree was the coolest "mobile" ever! What an amazing day! Looking forward to many more Mother's days!
