Happy Mother's Day!


Sadly, I only took one picture for Mother's Day this year. It could have been the fact that Dan played at church and it was me, myself, and I at home to get myself and Cooper ready and out the door. I believe I probably take for granted the Sunday morning routine when Dan doesn't have to play.....I get to sleep late and he tends to Cooper getting him breakfast and dressed and ready to go. I usually don't like surprises but it was so nice to wake up and come into the kitchen to see a giant chocolate cupcake (the one picture I took) and cards from Dan and Coop. My husband knows me all too well and knew that I would love a giant cupcake for breakfast....what he didn't realize is that I had to hide it before Cooper came into the kitchen because he has more than inherited his mother's love for chocolate! We had a wonderful day hanging out with the whole family at Amy and Clifton's.

I can't believe this will be my last Mother's Day as a mother of one. Next year I will be a mother of two! I have been pretty sentimental the past couple of weeks....well ok lets face it I've been more than sentimental I've probably been downright overly emotional but come on...I'm 38 weeks pregnant and my hormones are still going bonkers. I am really REALLY cherishing every day this week because it is my last week alone with Cooper. I know how exciting it will be to take on this new challenge of being a mom of two but I just want him to know (before all of my energy is exhausted taking care of a newborn) how very special he is to me. I am probably going a little overboard with being "lenient" this week but hey....I think it's ok every now and then right?
