My First Mother's Day Weekend

Yes, I celebrated all weekend! It began on Friday afternoon when I met these sweet friends below at the Renaissance Hotel in Montgomery. The other girls spent the night there, but it's too early for me to spend the night away from my babies. Although, sleeping through the night was VERY tempting to say the least. Anyway, we had wine and appetizers in the hotel room before getting dressed and heading out to dinner. On our way to dinner, we asked one of the valet guys to take a picture of us. Sidenote: This guy looked EXACTLY like Chris Rock and if Chris Rock did not have such a distinct voice I would have thought that I was on some hidden camera show. He said that he gets told that he looks like him everyday. We went to Lek's for dinner and sat outside! It was very nice and relaxing! After dinner, we went back to the hotel and sat outside and listened to the live music. We had such a fun night! I headed home after that to get some sleep before my spa day!!

Me, Lindsey, Hadley, Lauren, and Kimberly

On Saturday, I met back up with everyone at the hotel spa! We each got a pedicure and just enjoyed relaxing in the spa. I so enjoyed being pampered!! After the spa, we laid out by the pool, relaxed, and visited with each other. It was wonderful. We missed you Jenny and Haden!

On Sunday, Braxton let me sleep in which was awesome! He cooked cinnamon rolls for me for breakfast.

Braxton and the girls gave me a sweet card, a beautiful picture frame with a family picture of us, these new wine glasses....

and



this hands free soap dispenser! I have always wanted one of these. How nasty is a regular soap dispenser?! It is where you go and what you touch every time you need to wash your hands! For those of you who know me well, you know how excited I was to receive this. You just stick your hand under the dispenser and soap appears in your hand. You can even set it to different amounts of soap to be dispensed. Braxton said that he knew the way to my heart was a picture of my family, something wine related, and something sanitary!!! So true!!!

After my wonderful Mother's Day weekend, this arrived at my house on Monday! This is all free formula just for having twins! Last time I was at the pediatrician's office, he told me about this free formula. All I had to do was fill out a form specifying what kind I would like and fax it in. This is going to save us a ton of money!

I am so blessed that God chose to entrust sweet Caroline and Avery to my care! They have brought so much joy to our life. It is such an honor and privilege to be their mommy!!
