Mother's Day

Mother's Day weekend really made me feel like a mom this year, haha.  It all started on Friday when I got home after I fed Kennedy.  I guess she was not feeling too well and as I had her sitting facing me, she decided to loose her lunch all over my face!  Craig got a big kick out of it and was cracking up and then finally got me a towel. 

After I showered off, because I did need a shower after that, we headed out to purchase Youg's Mother's Day gift.  We decided to head to a jewelry store outside the mall so that we could contain our kids, haha.  Well, both of them got really restless while trying to pick something out, so by the time we were ready to purchase, both of us were holding a child.  I had Craig pay and he had Lincoln, so he sat him down on a stool next to the cash register.  Neither of us saw what happened, but before we knew it Lincoln was crying really loud.  Craig picked him up and pulled his hand away to find tons of blood.  Off to the ER we went.  Poor baby had to get 3 staples in the back of his head, but he was so brave.  He only had a whimper when they put in the staples.  He got his favorite meal on the way home and slept with me that night. 

Friday night I started to feel like I had a stomach bug, and ended up having to get up a few times in the middle of the night.  Saturday we all headed over to a Mother's Day brunch with Craig's parents, my parents and my grandparents.  The food looked so great, but I was still feeling pretty cruddy, so I just hung out with Kennedy while everyone ate.  It was great to get everyone together for brunch. Here is Doug with K!

Yay for Mother's Day!






















Luckily on Sunday, my stomach was feeling better and Craig made me breakfast.  Lincoln and Kennedy gave me some great cards and pretty flowers.  We had a very relaxing day and Craig topped it off with grilling out from Central Market and ice cream from Rita's.  While Mother's Day weekend had a few crazy bumps, I would never wish it any other way.  I am so thankful I was blessed to have these experiences with my wonderful children and that I was chosen to be their mother.  Just looking at them each day makes me smile and feel so lucky to be able to experience the love of a child. Thank you Lincoln and Kennedy for coming into my life.  Thank you Craig for being my partner in this journey through parenthood.  I love you all!
