Mother's Day

It is an indescribable delight to be a mommy to my little Serena!

Last Mother's Day Serena was still a little bean inside me! I was 29 1/2 weeks pregnant. Among other things, Serena was busy growing her beautiful long eyelashes!

Happy mama with her happy baby

We had a very nice Mother's Day! Serena was kind enough to sleep till 8:15, and then she happily played in our bed (crawling all over us!) for about 45 minutes, so we could lay there and enjoy a lazy start to the day! ;) We went to the mall mid-afternoon and shopped for some things we needed together while Serena took a nap in her stroller. Around 4 we went to Cheesecake Factory and had a delicious meal together. Serena sat like such a big girl in the highchair and chewed on a piece of bread. It was so fun! Afterwards, we walked around the mall a bit more and then got a text from Jordan's friend Ross that he was driving through Des Moines! Yay! So we ran home and I made strawberry shortcakes for us to enjoy while we visited with Ross for a bit! Serena thought Ross was pretty great, but Macy took a little time to warm up to him since he came in before Jordan did! Haha! After Ross left, we played with Serena for a while and then went for a night walk. It was a great day! I didn't do a bit of work. You should have seen the kitchen when we went to bed! Yikes! :P And toys were strewn everywhere in the living room and dining room! Heehee! :D It was worth it, though, just to relax and enjoy the day with Jordan and Serena! (And Macy...I had to add that for Jordan, haha!) ;)
