So I want to start out this post by apologizing to every other mother that reads this, because apparently I have the smartest kid in the world! ;) He may only be 10 weeks old, but he knew it was Mother's Day on Sunday. Smart little guy I tell ya. He sleeps about 4 hours at a time at night, twice I got 6 hours out of him, but that was weeks ago. The Saturday before Mother's Day I did what I do every day.
He woke up and wanted to Dance:
We let him help us dress him:
He helped with chores:
Got some more exercise in his Jumper:
I gave him a bath:
We read him a book:
And we put him to bed:
Ok, I know this isn't a picture of him in bed, but I wanted you all to see how cute his Dr. Seuss bed is :)
Four hours later I wake up. To screams? No. To Silence. He is still asleep. Hmmm. Must be sleeping longer tonight. At six hours, I again wake up. To Screams? Nope. Still silence. Is he breathing? Yep. Hmmm.... By 7:00 in the morning I was having withdrawals!!! But he finally stirred at eight hours of sleep, so I scrambled up to go get him. You can see that maybe I am the one not ready for him to sleep all night without me :)
Has he slept that long since? Nope. He just KNEW it was Mother's Day!!! Smart!
Here are some pictures of the wonderful breakfast Chris made me (Also a smart move by dad, Mason must get it from him):
This is one of my favorite breakfasts from our old Hangout in Oceanside, Beach Break Cafe. It is called crunchy French Toast. I was in heaven!!
I also want to give a shout out to the best Mothers I know!!!
My own Mother:
She is the most giving person I know. She is always willing to help us in anything, and she supports us in what we do. I love you Mom!
My Mother-In-Law:
The Sweetest, Kindest person I think I have ever met. And she raised a pretty good son ;) I hope I can raise my son like she did hers.
And to my sister:
Jessica is such a great mom! She loves Audrey so much, and does so much for her. Plus she is ahead of me by 4 months and can tell me everything that I am doing wrong!
Also, to my sisters-in-laws: You are all raising happy, smart, talented, spiritual children. I am glad I have you all to learn from.
And a Happy Belated Mothers Day to everyone else!!!

Smart baby indeed.
That is the best gift a baby can give! Last year for Mother's Day Pearl had a long nap after church with me on the couch and I seriously thought it was heaven!
Haylee, I seriously cannot wait to meet little Mason. He is such a CUTE little man! When I finally get to meet him, tell Chris to have some of that super yummy crispy french toast waiting!!
Aw, I love all the pictures!! Mason IS getting so big. I am so excited to see the little guy in just 2 months! BTW, you are soooo lucky to have a chill little baby who actually sleeps. I'm jealous. And, that breakfast that Chris made you looks amazing. Tell him I want some when I come vist. ;) Love you lots! xoxo
What a smart little guy! Ohh, he knows the way to his mommy's heart! ;) Happy Mother's Day!
I adore his grin, what a cutie!!
