It still seems a little surreal that I am not a mom.
I officially celebrated my first Mother's Day this weekend.
It started out with an overnight trip to Santa Cruz, and a day at Great America for Spring Celebration, the day long music festival, and walking around the park with some dear friends of ours and their kids. The trip to Santa Cruz was Tyler's first trip to the coast house. It was quite an adventure to pack for us and him. Eventhouh it was only an overnight trip, we had SO much stuff... his portable crib, stroller, our suitcases, blankets, a change of clothes for when it gets cold at the park, a blanket and toys for Tyler to play with on the long 2 1/2 hour drive there and back. My son is such a good baby - he slept most of the way there and home.
We had to come home Saturday night due to Troy needing to be at church Sunday for our special Mother's Day service. So the boys slept, while I drove.
Sunday was a long, tiring day. Since Troy leaves early for church on Sunday's, he put a little Mother's Day card from Tyler in his carseat so when I went to put him in it, I found the card. Then after church, we went to my sister's house for a BBQ with my family. Troy's mom, step-dad and sister also came out. We all had a lot of fun, and of course, Tyler was the main center of attraction.
He's coming up on his 7 month birthday. He's doing well with eating his cereal and veggies. He has two teeth coming in and he's ALMOST to the point where he can sit by himself without falling over. He still needs a little help but can mostly sit on his own.
I can't believe how quick he's growing. I finally downloaded all the pictures I had on my camera and I'll get some pictures posted soon, including some from this weekend.
I hope all my special mom friends had a wonderfully blessed Mother's Day!
