My wonderful Mothers Day!

My guys made sure to give me the best Mothers Day a girl could ask for. My Mothers Day actually stated on Thur. when Austin came home with a gift from school that he made me and could not wait for me to open it. I have to admit I cried when I opened this cute little guy below.
They had also had questions asked to them about there mommy and below are the answers that Austin gave: I think on the one he said doctors on he actually was saying tractors. When he got home and I read the sheet I asked him each of the questions to see if he would answer them the same again and he did.

Then on Friday afternoon these amazing flowers were delivered to our house for me-which was prefect timing considering that Austin had the tummy bug all day on Friday and had been throwing up non stop. As I was smelling my flowers Austin says "Mommy, you love them?". I replied "yes baby I love them". Austin says "so do birds and bees" where does he get these things, you never know what he will say.

Then on Sunday I got 2 of these guys (confession-I got them myself for Austin and I) they are love monster cookies.

My Mothers Day morning started out with Brad and I waking up to the sound of the boys playing. I rolled over and looked at our video monitors only to discover that Austin had gone into his brothers room and was playing and entertaining his BoBo. This was the first time he had done that-it was so cute for us to just lay there and listen to them playing and laughing together.

I received the cute card seen above along with a note or I.O.U. to have a year of our family blog printed into a book which is just what I had asked for. Also, earlier in the week Brad and I made these creations seen below with the boys for my Mothers Day gift. We both decided that it would be much easier for us to do it together with the boys than Brad on his own with them. Austin also let Hudson play in his room all weekend and loved it.


Shortly after we all woke up we took a family trip to Waffle House which is my favorite! Once we got there we realized that it was Hudson's first time to eat there.



After breakfast we went home where I made the comment to Austin that I was tired and he told me that he would play with BoBo in his room and for me and daddy to go take a nap in our room. I jumped on the chance of a nap, which was 2 hours and daddy stayed up stairs and he and the boys also napped.

We then went and got some flowers to plant in the back yard which was fun. Austin also picked me some flowers shown above!

After we planted some of the flowers Brad fired up the grill and cooked us some yummy steaks. We were going to have a picnic outside but it was a little hot so we ended up having a picnic in the playroom which Austin provided some music entertainment during.

here are two of my guys during our picnic



At one point I look over and Hudson has a whole hunk of meat in his mouth. I guess it looked better than his food that was cut up on his plate.

Hudson and Austin had so much fun playing together all day which was nice. Although Hudson thought that getting up on Austin's train table and walking around was the best thing ever.

Here is my baby girl!

And here is Bernie my first born baby!

I did good and didn't do any chores around the house all day which of course meant that it looked like this most of the day.

Brad was great and made sure made sure that I didn't do anything around the house or with the boys other than have fun, which was nice. Now I only have another 364 days until my next vacation day.

Mothers Day: The out takes...

This year I had a meeting the day before Mother's Day so my wonderful hubby tried to help make all my Mother's Day wishes come true. One of which was the cute photos where the kids hold up the letters spelling Mom. I don't know where he came up with the thought that I might love one of those (I am sure he didn't get an email from me letting him know just that. lol!). After I left he tried his best to take the photos of the boys to make the gift happen for me. As you can see from the photos below it was a great idea and great effort on his part but it just didn't work out.


Austin was too interested in watching "Trash Trucks" on daddy's phone to look up while holding his letter.







I have to give it to my sweet hubby-he definitely tried to make this happen for me.

Mothers Day

This was my first mothers day as a Mother of two and it was amazing. It was more like a Mothers Weekend for me. Brad started by arranging for his parents to watch the boys on Friday night so we could have dinner at Bonefish Grill (which I love)! While his parents were watching the boys they were suppose to work on my mothers day gift from the boys. Which I have to give Brad mad kudos for....He got kits for the boys to make 3-d hand prints for me. However Austin was not too excited about doing them so we still have to tackle making them. But I thought that was an amazing idea for Brad to come up with. Sunday we started the day by meeting Brad's parents at Mimi's for brunch (Brad and Mark (my FIL) even thought ahead and made reservations!). After brunch we went over to Brad's parents house for a nice relaxing afternoon. We also took some family photos while we were there. After almost 3 months we did not have a family photo of all 4 of us, until that day. Brad also gave me some cash to decorate the house some. I will be posting photos of the deco updates later.
