Happy Mother's Day! My sweet kids and hubby surprised me with gifts in bed! We were lucky enough to go have breakfast with my mom and dinner with Viv. I am truly blessed by the mothers in my life. I am thankful for my grandmas, mom, Viv, Jenni, Ashley & Amie, to name a few. They are all amazing examples of loving caring motherhood and remind me to honor my divine calling as "Mother".

My amazing family (Simon, Mom, & Jenni) threw me a fun 30th surprise birthday party! I kind of figured it out when we pulled into the parking lot but otherwise, I was oblivious!! So many wonderful people came to support me and wish me a happy decade. It was lots and lots of fun!

If I believed in Voodoo or wizardry, I would put a curse on the dumb person that came up with the idea of kids carts at Smith's! My trip to Smith's with 3 littles was so horrible, I couldn't help but take a pic! We were there to buy ingredients for this "Tangled" cake. I was up until 3:00 am finishing it but I was happy with the result.

Zack and I volunteered again in Nick's class with Mrs. Joff's. She is always cute to get toys out for Zack to play with but he really likes to sit with Nick and pretend he's a big kid too. I thought it was sweet of Nick to put Zack on his lap and read him a book during centers.

I got to go to lunch and birthday shopping with this lovely lady right here! So it's not a pic I took today (I always remember AFTER the person I'm with has left) but it was a fun day to remember.

I went shopping while Kendra was in dance because I wanted to put together a new centerpiece for my kitchen table. I wanted it to be pink and babyish in honor of baby sister to be born in the next few weeks. Here is my finished product.
Tonight, we took some dinner to Ryan and Ashley and let Kendra and Nick meet their new little cousin, Henry. Poor Zacky had to stay home with Dave & Viv because he had a fever and we didn't want to expose the baby to anything. The kids LOVE him though and it just gets me that much more excited to bring baby sis home.

I started my day off at Dr. Twelve's office for my bi-weekly check up. Everything looks great! We had a good day at bowling and I even bowled a 216! This is my 3rd lifetime 200+ game. Zack didn't want to go to the nursery at bowling so I finally relented and let him stay out with me. I was thankful I did because later this afternoon, I took his temperature and it was 101*! Poor guy!! :(
So cute! And I LOVE your centerpiece! The birthday party was so fun to plan and carry out. Too bad it was the night before Mother's Day and I think a lot of people had other plans, but we had a good turnout considering! That was a fun night!!!
ReplyDeleteWhat a game! 216 is awesome!!! That cake you did is so darling!
