My First Mother's Day

This was my first "official" Mother's Day, and it was great!  The 3 of us (yes, you read that correctly...ALL 3 OF US) went to church in the morning, then the Storti family all went out for breakfast afterwards.  The Wanners came over mid-morning and we took them out for brunch to celebrate, then came back to our house, made some coffee, and just hung out for a bit.  Then we went to my parents' house for a bbq in the afternoon.  It was a day filled with family and fun, and I wouldn't have had it any other way.

I wasn't expecting anything (although, I did mention that I wouldn't mind something!), but I got spoiled this year.  Here's a picture of what Bailey made me:

Scott made me a video that almost brought me (the unemotional non-crier) to tears.  My parents gave me lotion, body wash and hand sanitizer (comes in very handy in my line of work!) and my sister and brother-in-law gave me a coffee mug that says #1 Mom filled with candy.  Lots of wonderful and unexpected gifts.  

And here was my #1 present:

Notice the bruise on her head.  She took a tumble into the table and whacked it pretty good.  The perils of mobility!  And because I just can't get enough, here are a few more photos of my little sweetie pie.

Most girls love to talk on the phone.  Mine would prefer to eat it.

And I can't forget to mention how kind Scott was to keep an eye on Bailey for me so I could relax for awhile.

Yes...that would be a laundry basket she's in...poor thing.

All in all, I had a great first Mother's Day, and I feel blessed to be able to celebrate being a mother.  I hope you all had a great day, too!
