Is it crazy that Nate is almost 6 months old and I still can't believe I'm a mother? I guess it's just so surreal, so amazing to me that I actually have a child of my own. While I didn't get much pampering, it was still a wonderful 1st Mommy's Day! Although I had requested breakfast in bed, Nate wouldn't get up and make it, so I did have to make my own pancakes and bacon. But he woke up with smiles, and I'll take that. After church (which I wish Michael was home to hear--all about how to treat your wife and what she really needs with a lot of humor infused!) we headed down to Jaime's. It was nice to hang out with them and of course, play with Lucas. He informed me that I was his best friend in the whole world. That kid can melt my heart. I was surprised with a mother's day gift from Michael (he had it sent down there, so sneaky). We went over and visited Jeremy's mom for a little bit. A house is being built down the road that is the same floor plan as the one Jaime and Jeremy are building so we did a little trespassing and checked it out. I am so excited for them to build their house and see the end result. For dinner, Jeremy grilled some steaks and we had ice cream for dessert. It was a good mother's day, spent with family and my little boy.
Michael was able to catch us on the web cam before we headed out. At least I was able to see him on Mother's Day! It might have even been one of the last times we'll get to talk on that thing (thank goodness, 1)I don't know how much longer I can handle the connection and 2)it means he's that much closer to coming home!). I think this week will drag on, but that little light that has been at the end of the tunnel is getting much, much bigger.
