MY PLAN B MOTHER'S DAY
SERIOUSLY...2oo posts??? WAHOO!!! I am still lovin it, and will soon get around to making those FAB blog books. It is more than fitting that I be the topic for such a big milestone! :) With that said, let's bring on Mother's Day 2011...it was one for the books! Let me just preface this with the fact that we were supposed to be in Flagstaff, kicking it at Uncle Kane's hotel, eating Oregano's, and meeting the newest member of the Kennedy Clan. Well, that didn't happen...
So, Mother's Day started here last night,
with a mommy and boys sleepover in the family room.

Why was daddy not a part of this? So glad you asked...he was down with what he was thinking was food poisoning. We were hoping that by Sun. morning he would be doing better and we would be able to head up to Flag for the day. Well, after the morning got going, and Flagstaff was not an option, and Christian had already been in timeout twice before 9 AM, I was done with Mother's Day, and declared it "just another day". GRRRRRR....I started cleaning, and if anything, WAS getting out of the house, just to avoid any germs if Collin's food poisoning theory was really the flu. I took a shower, and decided to wash away the bad vibes, and start anew. I was a mom, and my kids are a gift. I should not take that idea for granted. I mean think of all the women out there who wish they could be moms. :( I needed to step it up! I got the kids ready and we were off...PLAN B was about to unfold.
FIRST STOP: Lunch at PPP
I know it might be shocking, but we did have this place pretty much to ourselves. Also, it might seem like a silly choice, but I LOVE PPP, and I actually could just sit there and relax.
CHEERS TO MOMMY!!!

SECOND STOP: The Splash Pad
I was still trying to avoid germs, so we were avoiding home.
Plus, I think Collin was sleeping.

We headed home after, and Collin was showered and feeling better. His fam stopped by on the way home from Flagstaff, and they even had gifts. (Always a good thing!) All in all, the day ended nicely. Cutter and Christian, I am blessed to have you two in my life! I L-O-V-E you!!!
