first of all, a "thank you" is in order, so thank you to daddy (and carter) for hijacking the blog and for making my 2nd mother's day a special one! here's the recap...
since mother's day was on a sunday and i typically sleep in on saturdays, kenny and i switched sleep in days so i could sleep in on mother's day. i was instructed to not come out of the bedroom--they would come into the bedroom when they were ready for me.
my boys came in the bedroom a little later than they'd planned, but it was worth the wait! C was dressed in a "mommy's superbaby" onesie and K was carrying breakfast (in the arm not holding C). K made us banana chocolate chip muffins and egg and cheese muffin cups AND made me my coffee! C had already eaten so he hung out in the play yard while K and i ate in bed.
my three boxes of gifts were two pairs of CZ (cubic zirconia) earrings from CZ and a box with a note that said, "your gift is on the blog". K knows how important words are to me, so it was really nice that he came up with (and learned how to use blogger) so he could write a post without me knowing. (he only had a short window of time to make the post, since he knows i check the blog periodically, even if i'm not posting anything).
after breakfast and a little playtime with C, C went down for his morning nap and K and i went back to bed. K was tired from all the work he did for mother's day morning and from trying to take a photo with C holding a sign. this was what he got. it's TOTALLY a two person job to get a good, cute photo of the goose!
we decided to have a picnic lunch at lettuce lake to continue my special day. we'd talked about going to the zoo, but we decided we wanted to nap and to NOT fight the crowd, as mothers were free at the zoo!
we stopped at lenny's for subs (which we won't do again anytime soon) and then had a typical day at the park. we ate lunch at the usual spot, walked the boardwalk, went to the playground area, C sat in the swing for all of 20 seconds before wanting out, and then sat in the shade and watched the people enjoying the beautiful day before heading home.
after C's afternoon nap, we headed to my grandma's house to have dinner with my mom (and dad) and grandma. everyone was happy to see C! dinner was delicious and uncle don was there too! it was a great way to end a fun, special day!
