Mother's Day!!!

I am so blessed to have three wonderful children and a great husband! I feel so fortunate to be a stay at home Mom and wouldn't change it for the world. I love spending every minute with them. Although yes, it is nice to get out without them once in awhile! My day started very early because we were going down to Craig sister, Chris's house for breakfast. I got to sleep in a little bit and therefore we were a little late getting to breakfast! As I was in the bathroom James comes in all by himself bringing me a box of See's candy! Awe, it was so cute and it was filled with my favorite, chocolate coconut! We opened it and shared a piece. Nothing like a little chocolate to kick-start the morning! I went downstairs to get some coffee and Jake was sitting in his swing. Daddy had gotten him up and changed him. I was wondering why he had on clothes but he also had his jammies laying on top of him. Craig went upstairs to take a shower so I asked Brianna because she was down there with him. She gave me her usual IDK so I lifted up the jammies and found him in a little shirt Craig bought that said "I love Mommy". As I picked him up I noticed a little chain around his neck! It was a necklace that I had been eying for the past year! It was my Push present/Mother's Day present! I was so excited! After we got ready we went down to Chris's to have a yummy breakfast prepared by Craig. He loves to make breakfast and thinks he is going to open his own breakfast restaurant one day! After Chris's we went to my Mom's house for dinner. I felt bad because she prepared the whole meal, but she told me not to bring anything!! She loves to cook anyway! Thanks Mom! It was delicious!

A few weeks ago James was introduced to the ants! He loves following them. So here he is watching the ants!

It was the first time he played with chalk and I drew him some train tracks. I swear boys are SO different from girls! Laying on the ground, looking for bugs! He was a filthy mess before dinner!

I hope everyone had a wonderful Mother's Day!
