1st Mother's Day

I seriously can not get enough of my daughter and her cuteness. There are a few pictures, OK maybe a bit of a picture overload, from this week and I can't help but smile and thank God for my life, despite how tired I constantly am and the lack of time to myself I have, I wouldn't change my life for the world!




Bib from Aunt Megan
 Riley had pears for the 1st time this week. She LOVED them, like the most she loves anything. I fed them to her cold since it was a hot day and she couldn't get enough of them. She ended up eating half of the pear in one sitting and had the other half the next morning, waiting for the diaper that she is going to produce is making me quite anxious.
1st time eating pears

So sleepy she had to rest on her soft ball.
This is one of the first times that I have had this weekend off from work and thankfully it is a wonderful weekend. The hot air balloons are up in the morning and gorgeous and Riley and I have been taking lots of walks all around town.

Patrick took me to eat sushi last night which I have craved since day one of being pregnant over a year ago and have only had it twice since not being pregnant, oh it was so delicious. We went and got a bottle of wine and The Vow to watch at home and I ended up getting a much deserved, in my mind, massage! And of course Patrick couldn't leave it at that he had to surprise me with a present. Ever since I gave birth I have been teasing him about getting me a push present but was actually kind of serious about it, that was hard work labor! He told me right after I gave birth that I deserve any piece of jewelry I want and I said I want a plain band to wear to work so I don't have to wear my diamond, knowing my luck my diamond would get loose and fall out in someones poo or something silly like that. However 5 months have gone by and still no push present. Well he got me a band last night and it isn't plain it has 11 small inset diamonds in it that we will eventually replace with the birthstones of the family! Isn't my husband wonderful, sorry brag moment!!!


Last night was not all fun and games however. Riley had a rough night as far as sleep went. I was up A LOT last night with Riley. Luckily I did end up getting about 4 hours of sleep when Patrick took her in the morning and fed her some more pears of course while making me my favorite french toast breakfast! I then got to work on my quilt a little bit while sitting outside enjoying soaking up the sun with my family. Then we went to my parents house were the guys made us all dinner including Patrick's mom Kay was there! It was a perfectly relaxing day and I can't wait for what next year has to bring!



Riley and I on my 1st mothers day, couldn't be more blessed despite Riley's serious look!

Kay, myself, Riley, Jeanine, all the mom's together!
