mellybrellyMy first real mother's day. We've always celebrated me being a stepmomma and then a pregnant momma, but this is my first year with a little squirmy cute breathing baby.
He decided to squirm and keep himself up last night. Between 11 and midnight I nursed him to sleep five times. Finally I asked Tim for help and he brought Pax downstairs and let him play till 3 am (Maybe I shouldn't have had that 5pm coffee...) and then slept with him downstairs till 5am, so I got 5 hours of uninterrupted sleep. I still woke up once, but forced myself back to sleep. Pax was climbing on me at 7 am, so we got up and played and I let Tim sleep.
Around 9 Tim made us yummy breakfast. Pancakes (I made the batter cause I make good pancakes), bacon and omelettes and my coffee with chocolate soy milk. Paxton ate a bunch of cereal and then half a pancake. We were all stuffed.
Best thing to do when you are stuffed? Go to bed! We all took a two hour nap!
Oh, and I had a very nice card from Paxton with a heartfelt note in there, who knew my 9 month old could write, and a nice card from my husband with a gift certificate for an hour massage!! I am in heaven. I cannot wait for the massage.
Pretty awesome day so far! I think we'll grill steaks tonight, and just chill all day. If I actually get dressed I might go over to the second hand book store and get myself some books. I have a gift certificate from my birthday in October I haven't had a chance to use. I also want to go buy myself some nail polish, and I should probably duck into Costco quickly.
Pretty nice day so far.
Happy mother's day to all the mommas in my life, on my friends list. Special love and compassion to the women who are still waiting and hoping to be moms one day. I remember thinking it would never happen.
