Mother's Day~

My first Mother's Day was as fulfilling as I had imagined it would be. I woke up to Michael stirring in his crib and was surprised by a big diaper full of poop, and let me tell you it was the worst smelling poop I've experienced with him! Once M & I finished cleaning his diaper I was surprised by Adam bringing donuts, Starbucks coffee, flowers & balloons home! We had a wonderful & relaxing morning at home. We visited Samantha (Michael's birth mother) for a short while which was a waste (I'll go more in detail a little later). Followed by that we spent the rest of our day & evening @ my parents house. It was such a special day as I was finally experiencing Mother's Day as a true mommy!

Busy As A Bee!

We have been as busy as a bee, hence no new postings! I'm getting ready for our trip to our home town (Portland) and am looking so forward to it! Michael will meet his twin cousins & my moms side of the family as well! Here are a couple of photos that I recently took. I didn't realize until I just posted the photos that I must be in a photo rut of Michael sleeping. I can't help it, he's just so precious!

Walter & Meaty are BFF's!

Preparing For The Big O.N.E.

Michael's first birthday is just around the corner (June 29th) & I've started to envision it! I've decided to go forth with a sock monkey theme, which is a bit more difficult finding sock monkey party items. I don't want to have a big party as he'll NEVER remember it! I'm hoping to have professional family photos done as we have yet to have them done! I've been pinning like crazy on Pintrest & have found some fun ideas. Here's the scoop~

I want to do something similar for his first birthday cake (or cupcake).

My mom-in-law is making something similar for Michael's birthday outfit!

I'm planning to make something similar only with reds, browns & tan colors.
