My First Mother's Day

Mother's Day weekend was filled with friends, family, and lots of sunshine...but first....a nap :)  

Once Claire and Daddy woke up, us ladies headed out to a fun filled first birthday party for Claire's friend, Bella.  She got to hang with Aunt Jenn.

And buddy Paige (I love how she's bending down to say hi to Claire...too cute :))

 She got to meet her newest pal, sweetie pie Brynn.

Poor (or should I say lucky) Michael was surrounded by the ladies...as usual.

From Bella's party, we headed to Grammy and Pop's to celebrate Pop's birthday.  I'm sure he'll be so happy I caught this great moment of him...and posted it :)

Claire had some fun with Grammy.

But made sure to keep her eye on the doggie walking around.

She showed Daddy some of her toys at Grammy & Pop's.

And got to play with cousin Lilly who had a blast hanging out in the tv stand for a while.

 Claire wanted to check it out too.  

 Need a hand?

 Now it's Caire's turn to return the favor ha.

 Finally they both made it up. 

 Such cute little ladies playing together.

Pop joined in on the fun too and played some peekaboo.  They had a blast.

On Sunday, I got to celebrate my first Mother's day....and Claire and Daddy did not disappoint.  I woke up to a beautiful present.

And breakfast in bed...yum.  (Please ignore the bed head).  

After breakfast we got ready to head up to Nana & Papa's in Reading.  Claire couldn't wait to get out and enjoy the nice weather.

We had some dinner out back while the cousins played.

And jumped rope with Daddy (who is oddly really good at it).

And played some more.

 We went for a ride in the wagon for the first time.

Claire loved it.

Until Mommy gave her a wishy...guess she didn't realize you're supposed to blow on them...not eat them.

Not so tasty.

Besides eating some weeds, it was a great first Mother's Day.  Can't imagine a mom luckier than me :)

Before I go, I would like to wish a very special Mother's Day to my sister-in-law Kristen who has made me a new Aunt all over again to a GORGEOUS little girl, Kayla.  Welcome to the world Kayla!  You are so loved!  Congrats to Paul, Kristen, and big brother Kian!
