My First Mother's Day

It is so incredible that I get to be a part of this "holiday."  Since we are so close to my mom now we went down and stayed with her. We got to celebrate with my mom and my grandma.

On Friday my mom came up to take care of Lucas while I went to the eye doctor and she gave me an early present of getting a pedicure.  It was so nice to get out on my own to relax and take care of myself.  Plus my mom absolutely adores Lucas.  She did say though that she now understands what we mean with him being a fussy baby;)

Grammi B with a sleeping baby.  He will sleep in the oddest position as long as he is in someone's arms.

On Saturday we then headed to her house.  This was Lucas's first "long" car trip. Mind you we are talking less than two hours.  Somehow though we ended up stopping twice, once to nurse and once to clean a poop explosion.  For about 15 minutes Kevin and I kept finding poop on each other.  We could not figure out where it kept coming from! Lucas seemed clean. But there it was on my dress, neck, hands, arm and on Kevin's hands, shirt and sunglasses.  We were a sight to see on the side of the road!

This was also Lucas's first overnighter somewhere else.  That night he threw a complete fit and did not go to bed until 11:30 but he slept for four hours and went without nursing for 6 hours.  It was incredible.  Kevin got up on Mother's Day morning to get my mom and I our favorite Starbucks.  I woke up without a voice though:( so I got a tea.  If you know me you know how much I love my Starbucks coffee! But I was getting sick (still am by the way.)

With my Granny! Lucas's great-grandma.

Then we headed to the Wharf in Monterey for a walk and lunch.  It was an absolutely gorgeous day!

Lucas wasn't too thrilled with our family photo.

I had such an amazing Mother's Day and it was so wonderful to be able to spend it with my mom also.  I absolutely love being so much closer to her.

Four generations!

For my mom I found this great idea on Pinterest.  Stamping Lucas's feet was a lot harder than expected but I'm happy with the outcome.

Ok, enough procrastinating...I got cleaning to do.  I could only drag out this Mother's Day for so long!;)
