Mother's Day 2011

I had a fabulous Mother's Day this year! First off, my birth mom came to visit Saturday, and we gave her new pictures of the kids, cards that the kids made for her, a flower, and a Mother's Day cake. She gave me the most yummy, HUGE chocolate chip cookies with icing and sprinkles and a beautiful card. Then, Saturday night the hubs surprised me with dinner out. He had set some money aside for this special day, and took me out for a mini shopping trip to get some capris and summer clothes I had been talking about for weeks. Then we went to dinner at a cute little diner I LOVE.

Mother's Day morning, I woke up to breakfast in bed and lots of "Hi mamas!" from my love bugs. French toast, maple bacon, and sausage...yum!! We had a lazy morning. Hubs helped with Mason a lot, feeding him bottles when he needed them and just playing with him and keep him occupied while I did my nails, showered, and got a little bit of housework done. Yesterday afternoon we went to see my grandmother and my (adopted) mother, and give our gifts to them and visit. We went out for ice cream last night, and I made dinner. I know, I know, it was Mother's Day and I shouldn't have made dinner, but I WANTED to. Hubs would have done it without a question asked, but I chose to, and was fine with it. :-) It was totally yummy, and after that was cleaned up and the twins were in bed, we had some baby Mason snuggles and got some shut eye ourselves. And as if all that wasn't enough, Mason gave me a straight 4.5 hours of sleep last night. :-)


It was a glorious, beautiful day, and I hope all you other beautiful, hard working mama's out there had a beautiful, wonderful day as well! ;-)
