My First Mother's Day

After many, many years I finally got to celebrate my first mothers day yesterday. We went up to my grandma's house, my dad BBQ'd and we sat out on my grandma's back deck on a hill that overlooks a golf course. It was the first time we have been out of the house with Aiden for something other than a doctors appointment - so no medical updates in this post, it was just nice to have a day not thinking about it all!


We had to pose for some pictures - my sister took alot, I will post more when she sends them to me (hint, hint)

Relaxin' on the deck, watching the big boys play in the sprinklers

Aiden got to meet some of his cousins for the first time and I got to see my 3 nephews for the first time since September - we have been so worried about getting sick for the last 6 months or so that we had to stay away...but, everyone was well and the kids looked but didn't touch. We missed them, they have all grown so much! I can't wait until the day that Aiden is running in the sprinklers in my grandma's lawn acting all crazy with them :) Until then, he sat on the deck watching them with his mommy and daddy. He wasn't crazy about the bright light - he was indoors for the first 4 months of his life!

Looking pretty cool in his sunglasses and "I love mommy" shirt

He loves daddy, too

Jeremy had some beautiful flowers delivered to me with with the sweetest card attached and got me a digital picture frame to fill with pictures of Aiden (OK, and I added a few pictures of the dog in there, too).


Flowers from Jeremy

We had a good day out of the house, not a bad way to spend a Sunday afternoon!
