I'm so glad to be Ella's mom!

Well, today was my first Mother's Day. It could not have been a better day. Brian let me sleep in. I only slept until 8, but it seemed like so much later than her normal 6:45. Look at the pictures below and it will tell you about my day!



It's so crazy because I came downstairs to this! Brian wrapped these. Crazy! I don't think he's wrapped a present for me since we were dating. I didn't care if they had empty boxes inside the wrapping because it meant so much that he put so much thought into everything. I'm sure you're wondering what is in these packages. Really, it doesn't matter. I guess for memory sake I will share it though. In the balloon bag (that he found in the basement closet, I love how he knew I had a stash down there) was an FBI water bottle and coffee mug. In the box on the bottom, was definitely the most special, was a picture frame that had her picture on one side and a clay mold of her foot on the other. In the bigger box on top of this one was a flash for my camera.... woohoo! Then, in the other small package is an extra piece (difuser) for the flash. There is also a card there and in the card Brian schedule me an 80 minute Swedish massage next Saturday! Oh my dear, this is AMAZING! He wouldn't let me open them until after he made me a bacon and egg sandwich and after we both finished eating breakfast.


Of course Ella did not want to eat her oatmeal so I gave her some cheerios. She seemed to enjoy these. I really think it's because she is teething and needs something good for her gums.


This was just after I put my new flash on my camera. I LOVE IT :) I just love this picture of her. It really shows how beautiful she is!

So, we went to visit my mom also. We put each baby in the chair to take pictures. This is my cute little chic.

The three babies together. They actually sat there for a couple of minutes while I took about 25 or so pictures. I love this one because Ella is leaning on Nathan. It's so fun watching those three grow up together. They see each other at least twice a month to play.

Here's another one. My mom asked if I could get one without Nathan's hands in his mouth. I think it's hard enough getting an 11 month old and 2 14 month olds to even sit in the chair together!

I might just be the most proud mom ever. This was after a long day for her. She's such a little trooper.

She definitely loves her dad too!

My 1st Mother's Day was amazing. Life has changed so much, but in the most amazing way. Brian didn't realize she got changed and fed so much. He gave me a break, but it was definitely an eye opener for him too!!!!
