Mother's Day

So, I know my post is a bit late...

I had a great Mother's Day. Unfortunately we had kind of a "false start" to our day. Maddie woke up at 6 in the morning, which is way too early for her. Usually when her day starts at 6, it turns out to be the longest day! Well, lucky for me, Daddy took over from there. I grabbed Maddie out of her crib and we hung out in bed as a family. Maddie rolled around climbed on Mike and I for an hour.

After that, Mikey took her upstairs and fed her and played with her while I went back to sleep. I wish I could say that I slept in till noon, but sadly that was not the case. I woke up at 8:40, walked into the kitchen and poured myself some coffee. I headed into the living room where I found the tv on cartoons, Mike mostly asleep, and Maddie in her Daddy's lap also on her way to lightsoutville!

I took Maddie to bed and came back upstairs to enjoy my coffee and some cartoons :-) I actually really enjoy vegging out to cartoons, but Sunday morning TLC and A&E is the best! I watched some Sell this House and Flip this House till 11 and then jumped in the shower to get ready for our day out.

Finally, we got on the road with my mom and dad to Tri Cities where we enjoyed lunch at Famous Dave's. I wish I could say I even got dessert, but when you load up on brisket, mashed potatoes, corn on the cob, corn bread, spicy sausage, and a Hefe there's not much room for anything else!

Maddie loved this pig!!!

After lunch, we decided to walk off some of the calories. We headed down to somewhere on the river (I'm still no good with knowing where I am in Tri Cities). I think it was the park close to the Richland Yacht Club; not Howard Aman...that's where we ended up! So, we walked along the river and enjoyed the sunny day.

Maddie got sick of her stroller, so I walked a bit with her on my shoulders. When she got sick of that (she was practically jumping out of my arms to get onto the grass) we took a time out for a mini photo shoot!!







My mom and I finished out our great afternoon the only way you can...with a trip to:
