Day Out

We had a wonderful day out.  We had a picnic as a family.  We packed a cooler and a bottle!  And went down by a lake that had a picnic table.  Ate some lunch while a certain family member watched us in envy.  I know he was thinking "where is my food!!!"?  Well, I gave him a bottle earlier.  Then we went to the place that we went to when I was pregnant and took some pictures.  You can see them on facebook.  Wesley was so good.  He didn't fuss at all.  He was exhausted last night though.  He slept all night in his swing.  He is now in his jumperoo which not that long ago his feet didn't touch the floor.  Well, they do now.  That makes momma sad. :-(  My little boy is growing up.  In a week he will be 4 months old.  That also makes me sad.  He is doing so well.  Such a wonderful addition in our family!!!

Motherhood

I love being a mom.  It is definately the hardest job that I have every had.  It is a 24/7  job but it is the most rewarding.  To have my little boy look into my eyes and laugh and smile makes my day!  And everything that I know of being a mom I have learned from my mom! She is the best. She is someone that I can call on anytime and ask her questions.  And believe me I have many of them.  She was there when I had Wesley and she stayed to help til after thanksgiving.  And I appreciate that so much.  I was lucky to be able to spend so much time with her.  She worked as the secretary at our church and also the principal of my elementary school.  Yes, I didn't get away with anything!  And I tried!  She always supported me.  And I was not an  easy child.  She worked so hard to help me with my school work and I needed help!!!  And now that I am a mom I know that there is so much that I can learn from her.  I'm thankful that she is only a phone call away. (I have her on speed dial!!)    Thanks, MOM!!!
