My 1st Mother's Day

May 12, 2013 has proven to be one of my Top 5 most favorite days!!! This was my very first Mother's Day and it could not have been more special. My boys truly out-did themselves and I have been overwhelmed with happiness. Here's a recap of my awesome weekend.

Friday night we actually stayed home (for once) and after baby went to bed, we got to spend some quality time together out back..grilling and just hanging out. Saturday morning, all of us (Jon, Jax, and myself) went to run some errands. This was so nice to get out of the house as a family. We went to the bank, Home Depot (man store), and Walmart (nightmare). While at HD, the boys let me pickout the table for the front porch as an early Moms Day present. Found the bistro set (that I love) and Jaxson :) helped Daddy pick out a nice flower and pot to sit on top. I LOVE IT! *see pic below! We were gone what seemed like forever and once we finally got home, we did things around the house, before having friends over for dinner. Jaxson was asleep when they got there, and after 2.5 hours, he woke up and got to play with his friends (shout out to the Shamrocks and Jaxson's little friends- Riley & Bently). My sister and her friend also came up and hung out with us and even stayed the night!

Sunday... here at last. We woke up a little before 8 and got the coffee and cinnamon rolls going. Jaxson loves his sleep (like his moma used to :)) so he normally sleeps until atleast 8:30 (or longer). I love it because this allows me to do a few things before he gets up. Well, I noticed Jon walked up to his room and was calling for me to 'come here.' Normally, this makes me mad (lol as I am sure it does any moma) but today I was just like 'ok, whatever.' When I got upstairs to Jaxson's nursery, Jon was holding him and had something behind his back. When I got close to them, he handed me my gift and told me "Happy Mother's Day!!!" *Ofcourse, Jax was saying it too :) and just'a smiling. I was unsure what it was at first, but then discovered that it was a picture frame- one side that had a mold of Jon's handprint with Jaxson's inside of his along with Happy 1st Mother's Day and their name and ages on it. The other side had a picture of Jax and I. It was so precious and something that I will cherish forever!!!!! Jon doesn't know just how much that meant to me! 

Jaxson'isms-My baby boy leaned how to sit up this weekend which made it even better! He loves and is so proud when he does it. 

I'd also like to say thanks to my mom for being so special and dear to my heart. She is literally the best mom ever, hands down. Shoutout to the best mother in law ever as well, my stepmom, and my Granny. These women are so awesome and I'm glad God blessed me with them!
