Happy Mother's Day


Happy Mother's Day to all you moms and moms-to-be out there. I started off my day with sweet little gifts from my monsters. Isn't this little flower arrangement from Stinkerbell the cutest?


And Zoe Bug gave me a cute little recipe book compiled by her class of their favorite recipes. So sweet. I'm always looking for new recipes.

When I was in school, I don't remember making cute gifts like these for my Mama Llama. In spite of some of the hideous gifts we made for my mom, she saved everything we made for her. For-EVER. In fact, I distinctly remember looking at that stuff sitting proudly on top of her dresser and thinking "Why does she she keep all that crap?" Now that I'm a mom, I get it.


Look, I even got breakfast in bed. The girls told me "Now Mom, you have to stay here in bed until we bring you breakfast." 

"Okay, I guess I'll make that sacrifice and lay here a little longer." And I was so looking forward to springing out of bed and dusting the curtains. Oh well, another day.

I could hear Peanut Head in the kitchen with the girls as he supervised the cracking of the eggs. Then I heard him exclaim "Not too much butter, she doesn't like a lot of butter!" My girls like to lay the butter on thick and it's nasty. And I love butter.


Look at their sweet, shining faces. And that hair!

Some of y'all think I teased Zoe Bug's hair for that crazy hair picture that I use all the time, so I hope this picture alleviates that suspicion. It's for real, man. This is my life. Every. Single. Day.

  9. I love the hair!!! My princess always has crazy hair in the mornings too. I think it's because she keeps her hair under the covers.
