Mother's Day

There is something special about celebrating one's birthday and Mother's Day.  They always feel like such magical days.  Seeing as they are so close together for me, I really appreciate my husband making both days very special.

I started the day teaching Alex to blow bubbles.  He was so cute trying to spit bubbles out.  Of course he ended up spilling all the bubble mixture all over me.

Zach got me a doughnut.  I wanted to share it with Alex.  I broke off a piece for him and he pointed to the rest of the doughnut and said "mine".

Zach made an amazing breakfast.  Eggs Benedict with crab.  I was laughing when he cleaned off the garden shears to cut the crab, but it was delicious all the same.


And my sparkling apple cider.  

Then Mom took me to a ballroom performance.  It was hot, crowded, buffet with really long lines.  But the show was great and had a great time.



It really feels great when your loved ones make you feel special on your special day.

Greatest part of my day...

I love that my favorite part of the day is when my son wakes up from his nap. I give him a sippy cup of milk, turn on Jake and the Neverland Pirates and yell "Yo Ho Ho!" at the tv screen.
