Mothers

I have found little in this life as overwhelming yet simultaneously rewarding as parenting. It would take a gajillion adjectives for me to even begin to try to express what being a Mom is/has been for me up until this point. Although it may sound clichĂ©, I just consider it an enormous joy and blessing to be a Mommy. I was so thrilled to be able to spend Mothers Day with some of my most favorite Moms - my sisters!

Of course since Mothers Day was on a Sunday, we went with my sister to her church. I always love worshipping with friends and or family -it's just awesome to experience other bodies that, you know - are special to your loved ones. After church we attempted a mini photo shoot ~ you know me!?

Here is Catina with her girls - It's so hard for me to believe how big these girls are and I know we're going to be there before I know it!
Me and my crazy crew: 
I love pictures like this one where they are all looking ahead and it's completely and totally obvious that they are siblings - so funny! 
My eldest sister was there with her daughter too. The weekend was a total cousin fest. Trust me when I tell you that the pics of she and her daughter were so precious, but they'd rather not be posted on the blogosphere so you'll have to take my word for it.
 
When we got home from Winston, and after we ate supper the girls picked one of their Easter goodies as their treat. Thank you Courtney for this entertainment:
Bunny ring pops are so funny!

My sister got a baby swing to go with our play set from a friend of hers and I was anxious to try it out, knowing he would LOVE it and he does:

I find this picture so funny - Lord only knows what he's thinking but it tickles me nonetheless.
Look at all those pearly whites, would you?
My husband delivered on Mothers Day and gave me something I really wanted. The girls and I have been enjoying all sorts of smoothies but our blender wasn't so super awesome so now I have this:
My most precious gifts are the hand made ones from my babies:
OSM MOME = Awesome Mommy =)

Good to know that both Kennedy and our dog Molly love me 100.
In case y'all don't know, I'm clearly pretty Awesome! Ha!

It was a wonderful Mothers Day spent with people I love most in life - what more could a girl ask for?!

  1. Too cute! I love Gray's expression in that swing too. He looks a little devilish - just you wait, he's going to keep you on your toes when he's older. (In a good way.)
    I'm glad the girls liked their Easter candy. They are precious goofballs.
    Laughed out loud when I saw how K spelled Molly's name. Love it!
