Mother's Day 2012

I had the best first Mother's Day. Abdiel took Julian in the morning so that I could sleep in. While playing together Julian had a huge explosion out of his diaper and onto his dad, it was the first time Julian pooped on someone. I think it traumatized Dad but made me laugh so much! We started celebrating our day by having carrot cake for breakfast (calories do not count on mother's day). We headed off to the Wild Animal Park which is now called the Zoo Safari Park... but to me it will always be the Wild Animal Park. I thought that there would be a lot of people but it was dead, it was so nice. Julian was so good he just sat in his stroller and was talking up a storm the entire time. We spent a couple hours there and then headed back home.

We tried out a new local restaurant on our way home it is called The Habit it was pretty good. 

Once we were home Dad again took Julian and I took a nap. It was so great to catch up on some rest. I feel like a whole new woman! We spent the remainder of the day just hanging out and watching crap TV. It was such a amazing day! Oh and Abdiel totally hooked it up; he got me a new camera! I cannot wait to start using it... more photos to come :-)~

Last week we did a Mother's Day craft. We made hand prints for the Grandmas, Cousin Claire {with her kids handprints}, and myself. Here is a finished photo of the one I kept. 

I used this recipe that I found online. It was super easy to do. I highly recommend this recipe.

I have not been blogging lately because we have been working on the house. We are trying to get everything ready for Julian's Baptism. We have a honey do list a mile long. Abdiel last weekend painted our front fence and started prepping the back fence. 

Julian was helping dad work

I have been also helping my friend Tess with wedding crafts. Here are some photos of the recent things we have completed.
