A Dream Mother's Day

I could not have asked for a better Mother's Day. Really, I couldn't. Doug was so good to me! He let me sleep in and brought me bagels for breakfast. He got me a spa gift certificate for a mani and pedi and some lotions. And from Briana (with help from daddy), I got a beautiful "Mom" necklace. We relaxed and played with Briana the whole morning and Briana went right down for her nap. My parents came over in the afternoon and they got me a beautiful necklace as well (a picture of a mom and a baby were on the charm) and a picture frame with a picture of me and Bri on one side and Briana's handprints on the other. My sister sent me lotions and a beautiful mother/daughter book. Of course, Briana, Doug and I showered Grandma with gifts too! Everything I received was so beautiful. Then in the evening, we all went to eat Japanese food and Briana really pigged out. So yummy! I sat in Briana's room before her bedtime and rocked her before she went to sleep. It was a Mother's Day that dreams are made of.

Here are a few pictures of the day! (My dad was there, but unfortunately all the pictures I got of him were of the back of his head! Bad me! But, I can tell you that Briana gave Grandpa three kisses in a row before he went home last night!)

Briana and Mommy kisses...

Me and my girl...

Goofing off!

Briana is my little hoot!

Legos of love...

My sweet Bri...

Three generations of ladies!

Kissing Briana's cheeks!

Briana is beginning to love hats!

Pushing daddy's head back is fun! (No idea where she got this from!)

Where is my dinner?

It was a perfect day! Hope you all had a wonderful day too!

It is amazing, isn't it? I am glad you had such an amazing day. I have so many friends who did not, and I think it has to do with how long we waited and how much more we (and our husbands) appreciate it all. I feel so blessed. I love the adorable pics you posted. I need to get mine uploaded!
