My first official Mother's Day!

Last year for Mother's Day the best present I could have had was that healthy "big" baby inside of me! I felt like a mother when she was in my stomach still. But today was my first official Mother's Day with Alana here! I couldn't have asked for a better day. Even though I am a mother this year, my first priority was to spend some time with my own mother. I think it's so important as you get older to tell your mom how much you love her and to thank her for everything. She molded me into the woman, mother and wife I am today. She is my best friend and I couldn't make it in this world without her. (Not only because she gave birth to me, DUH) but because she has always been there for me and helped me through all my good (and bad) decisions. I think Alana will be lucky if I can even be half the mom she is to me!


We got up this morning and went to Church with my parents, sister and niece's and then we all went out for lunch to celebrate! Happy Mother's Day to Jacquie too! She is a single mother of 2 and has her hands full with those cute girlys!


Happy Mother's Day to me!!!


The best Mother's Day present EVER!


We came home from Corona and my wonderful husband let me take a nap while he cleaned the ENTIRE house! (2nd best Mother's Day present EVER). Then we took his parents out to dinner! This is Victor and his mama! She is the reason he was made for me!


And finally, a group shot of us with the in-laws! I really couldn't have asked for better in-laws, I am a very lucky girl.
Happy Mother's Day to all the Mama's out there!
