Big days

Friends! Been a while. At least you know what I've been up to from the previous post. 

We have a big few days ahead of us. Tucker's weigh-in is tomorrow to see if we've been able to gain a few ounces. (Now that I think about it, would have been interesting if doctor had actually quantified  our goal in ounces.) Saturday I have date day with Bryan. We've surrendered to the fact that we are no longer night owls - last date night we pulled in the driveway at 9:15pm and I had four blisters on my feet from high heels that hadn't been worn in ages. 

And Sunday is Mother's Day. Let me say that I do not need a national holiday to make me feel appreciated and supported as a mother. Bryan makes me feel this way all.the.time. And although my children may not know all that I do for them until they're having babies of their own, I get gratitude and satisfaction from seeing them happy and healthy (plus or minus a pound or two).

Happy early Mother's Day to all the mothers and mothers-to be out there :)

I'm so lucky to be this guy's mom.

I'm so lucky to have this little family.

I'm so lucky to be this guy's main squeeze.
