I woke up on Mother's Day to find my wonderful husband and baby girl making me pancakes!!!
James loves to carry Elise around the house in the Bjorn- and Elise loves being in the center of all the action (which is usually anywhere James is)- so they had a very fun morning!
We had a late lunch at A1 Steakhouse (one of my favorite Japanese restaurants), went for a walk at Diamond Park and watched movies at home. It was the most perfect day!!!!
James and Elise made a hand print for me for Mother's Day. It's so wonderful because it's something special that I will always have to remind me of my first Mother's Day!! I'll always have a reminder of how tiny Elise's precious little hand was in 2010- and how wonderful James was to spend time with Elise to make such a thoughtful gift!!!!
We spent most of the morning together just enjoying each other's company. James has been so busy with work lately and has had to work several weekends. It was nice to have one day just for the three of us- with no distractions!!
Elise has been very interested in pulling up to standing... She loved having daddy to play with and having mommy as an audience as she showed off her skills (with one eye on Sieben the whole time).

My First Mother's Day... so amazing!!! I think that I say in almost every blog post that I can't believe how quickly time has passed- but it's so true. Eight months ago I gave birth to the most amazing little girl that I have ever known. I love her more and more every day as I see the thrill and excitement in her eyes as she learns new things and grows bigger and stronger. Even when she is sick with a 103 degree temp- she smiles at me and loves me in her own special way!!! One of my most favorite parts of my day is going to her room in the morning... even though she usually smiles up and me and says "da da"- hehe.
Every change and sacrifice that I have made is worth it because we have an incredible daughter who makes me PROUD to be a Mother!
