Mother's Day

Today was a good day.  Liam slept through the night.  Since he has been sick he has been getting up 2 or 3 times a night but last night he finally slept all night again.  Once we all woke up, I got my Mother's Day cards from my boys.  I got my new CHI last week because my other one went in the trash.  It had a short in it and was giving me trouble so that is what I asked for for Mother's Day.  We went to church.  We put him in the nursery for the first time.  Either my nerves were shot because of it or my sugar was low because I was shaky the whole time.  He did fine just like I knew he would have.  After church we went to my parents house and grilled out.  We spent all day with them.  Everyone napped but I got caught up in one of moms jigsaw puzzles on the computer and couldn't put it down.  Then around 7 we met up with John, JoAnn, Mark, Margaret and Mark's momma Lynn at Timberloft for dinner. It was good.  We were going to go to Cracker Barrel but I think everyone else in Manchester wanted to go too because there was a hour and forty five minute wait!  Liam was a little fussy.  It was noisy and it was his bed time.  It had been a week since everyone had seen him because I stayed home with him while he was sick, so he was being passed around and I think it was too much for him.  We had to take a time out and go outside for a minute.   Once the restaurant cleared out some he was much better.  Ryan and I appreciate what all our mother's do for us and I'm sure we don't thank them enough so it was nice to spend that time with them today.

Liam made his grandmothers handprint ornaments out of salt dough.  They turned out really cool but I need to do them again because they were too thick and didn't harden all the way through so they are cracking.

I know that this Mother's Day was hard for my mom since it was the first one without grandmother.  Liam sure did come along at a good time for her.  She had something to be happy about today.  Who couldn't be happy with something like that!  I love you mom! Thank you for all that you do for me!
