Mother's Day 2012

Mother's Day 2012
My second Mother’s Day couldn’t have been more perfect. Avery and I got up and played cars while Jon went and got breakfast. Then we played some more before getting dressed for the day. I packed up all the things we would need for the day, extra clothes, diaper bag, neb, Avery’s bag o’cars, Mother’s day presents for the grandmas, a total of like 5 or 6 small bags, carried them all to the car at once (made me smile doing this because I love being a mom and being mom also means being a pack mule :)) and headed up to my parent’ house for lunch. After a great brunch lunch, Avery went down for a nap, and I sat out in the sun for awhile before heading in to take a nap myself. After our refreshing naps Avery and I joined everyone else outside, enjoyed the sun and played with his sand and water table (this is why I needed to pack extra clothes) Avery had a great time splashing and playing in the sand.

The afternoon seemed to fly by and before I knew it, it was time to pack up and head across town to our next Mother’s day celebration.
GG, Avery & Me
After another great meal, it was again play time. As an extra special treat for GG (and all of us) all the Grandkids were there and awake.....although everyone was getting pretty tired and the end it was a whole lot of fun to have all kids together.
Grand babies.... no there was no "wear red memo"
It was a great day to spend with family I am so lucky!
Oh how could I forget, what is Mother’s Day without some hand made gifts..... Avery made me a handprint flower at daycare, and we made handprint flower cards for the grandmas, and Avery even delivered them himself, the grandma’s also got my new favorite picture of Avery.

Happy Mother’s day to all the wonderful Mothers I know. Hope your day was a great as mine.
