May 10th, 2009. My first mothers day! I had the best day ever. I woke up to my sweet husband wishing me a good day. He got me a white gold band with the babies sweet names engraved in it. I love it and had secretly wanted that very gift! He cooked breakfast and then asked me what I wanted to do that day. I really wanted to go to church, however, the babies are teething and had been super fussy all week. Well still no teeth but on Mothers Day, they were angels! So what I wanted to do was clean the house. Yes, you read it right, that is all I really wanted was a clean house. So, we cleaned for like four hours, it really wasn't fun but it needed to be done and it was nice to see the finished product (for at least a day, right). Calla and Carter seemed to really enjoy watching us run around and clean. Inside I think they were really laughing at daddy for getting suckered into it all! :-) When they went down for a nap we watched a movie, Role Model, which had a really cute story and it was funny. Then bath time and I thought I would take the Mothers day opportunity to dress them somewhat alike (outfits provided by Aunt Jane) and take pictures. This one was my favorite. Calla loves to grab his hands and aren't they just soooo cute. I am so blessed that I finally got to have a Mothers day and it be so special but most of all for the wonderful husband that loves me and the two sweetest little miracles of all, Carter and Calla!
