Mommy

Oh how I love that word, in any form. Mom, Mommy, Mama, Mamasita. It is the best. To hear those little voices call out for me, to need me. This is the most precious gift I have ever been given. Don't get me wrong, motherhood is many things, happy, sad, frustrating, overwhelming, beautiful, ugly, amazing, rewarding, just to name a few. Most of all, it is a gift. I am so grateful to have two happy, healthy, beautiful children. Even though I spend a lot of time worrying about their health and safety, and if I am screwing them up and so on and so forth I am mostly so happy I get to be their Mom. To wake up every day and hold chubby hands, wipe faces and noses, hear them call for me, hear them laugh and play, get kisses and hugs, get them dressed, make them breakfast, watch them learn and grow, read to them, sing to them, and put them to bed again, I am so blessed. So, even in all my sleep deprived glory, I can't wait to get up and be   Mommy.

Happy Mothers Day Mom. I love you. I'm so happy you are my Mom!! I wish we lived closer so we could hang out more. I love when you come visit and hang with me and the girls just doing the day to day stuff. Of course I also love when you get up with them in the morning so I can sleep in :)  . The girls love "Grandma" so much and miss you and talk about you all the time. Madi is always asking, "Grandma is your Mom?" They always want to send you their drawings in the mail! You are there for me when I need to call for advice, a recipe, or to vent! Love ya and hope your day was great, you deserve it!!

Also Happy Mothers Day to my Grandma, my Sister and my Aunt. Love you and so do the girls!! Hope you guys had a great day!!

Too Cute For Words!!

My beautiful Bella posing before we went to get her gymnastics pictures done. Had to post, she is too cute, and I do believe someone is hamming it up like a big sis we all know and love!!

Enjoy,

Happy Easter

Or more importantly, Thank You Jesus (for your sacrifice). I know I don't get very deep or personal on this blog, but why not?? It's my blog, if you don't like it, don't read it (  I guess that message is for the two people, besides myself, who actually do :) Anyways, I always try to make sure the girls know the real meaning of big holidays. We can't have them running around thinking it is all about them and candy and presents and santa and bunnies, seriously!! I have this really cool Easter book (thanks Grandma and Papa) that explains a lot. We read it the other night, and Madilyn had a lot of questions. Bella, at this point, was already passed out (sugar crash? I think so).

Madilyn: "I don't get it".

Me: "When we sin, which is what it is called when we do bad things like not listening to mommy or fighting with our sister or telling a lie, the punishment is death. Jesus died on the cross so we didn't have to, and if we love Jesus and ask him to forgive us, we get to go to Heaven"!!

Madilyn: (with eyes wide)"You mean Jesus got killed"?!

Me: "He did but after 3 days he was alive again to watch over us and he went back to heaven to be with God".

Madilyn: "Oh my gosh". (she then gets sidetracked and yells something) "Oh no"! ( she now puts her head down and crosses her hands and begins praying frantically and saying she is sorry)
Me: I hope some of that got through, especially the part about the punishment for fighting with your sister is death :)

My cute bunny



MMM frosting!



Its a unicorn, in case you were wondering.

On to shallower things. We had some fun on the day before Easter, illegally I might add!! We went with some friends to their HOA sponsered egg hunt. It was really fun and the girls had a blast. Some of the pics are above.

Easter Morning!

Look at this! Thanks Grandma
