Happy Mother's Day!

Well today was my first Mother's Day and it was fabulous! Tucker came home on Saturday with my present and was so excited for me to open it that he wanted me to open my gift right when he got home, but I wanted to wait until today. So we woke up really early and I opened my...BELLY CAST!!!! I can't wait for Henry to grow a lot more so I can have an impressive belly cast, then we will paint it and maybe hang it in his nursery or in our stairway.

We also went over to my parent's house and I was suprised by another gift, a new Coach diaper bag, which I absolutely LOVE! I can't wait to use it, and be a chic mama out and about with my little man.

Then we went to Kane's where we ate, and ate, and ate. I didn't know that I could pack away that much food. It was delicious! It was such a wonderful day spending time with my family, and we realized that next Mother's Day Henry will be an "outside" baby and I can share "my day" with him :)

Henry's 2nd 3D Ultrasound

We got to see our little boy this morning and he still was a little stubborn booger and wouldn't really move around. We were able to get a could of good shots of his "boy parts" and he is still definitely a boy!!! In 15 years he will probably want to "kill" me for showing these off, but I don't care, I am a proud Mama! So here is photographic evidence that Henry is indeed Henry. :)

Happy Easter!!!

Well little Henry is already spoiled and enjoying Easter even though he is not an "outside baby" yet. Both sets of grandparents got him Easter gifts. My Mom and Dad purchased a cute bear step stool and a super adorable and soft & cozy blanket and Tucker's parents put together a frog themed Easter basket full of wash rags, two bath towels, a sleeper, baby wash, bath toys, and books! No doubt about it this little guy is loved by his family already!

So, we are remodeling our master bathroom...

And it has been a pain in the butt! We have had blood, leaking water, dust galore, and countless trips to Home Depot but I know in the next few weeks it will be done and we will love it! I am so lucky to have such a handy husband, and in-laws who can help us with the labor. Good bye linoleum, and ugly tile!!!
