Happy Mother's Day!
My baby girl is sweetly sleeping so I thought I'd take advantage of the opportunity to capture a moment with my first born. I am so grateful for Morgan and his bravery in being my foray into motherhood. Although dealing with a two year old can be a bit challenging at times, he is at such a fun age and learns something new everday. I am so lucky to be a part of his life and I love him very much!
Since my Mom is still here with us, my Dad sent her two dozen roses for Mother's Day. We were enjoying those when Cody and Morgan showed up Saturday afternoon with a dozed lavender tulips for Gramma (her favorite color) and a dozen roses for me (my favorite flower).
Such sweet gentlemen!
In case you didn't notice in the first picture, my mother treated me to a haircut on Saturday morning as an early Mother's Day present. I decided I needed a radical change since I was feeling frumpy after having Pepper. I'm excited to have a new look and that I can actually do my hair in five minutes! Thanks Mom!

(You can't really see her but Pepper is hiding behind the flowers.)
A few days ago we got out a playmat for Pepper to enoy. Big brother Morgan decided to show her how it was properly used. These are moments that overwhelm me with joy in being a mother and having an eternal family.
My lovely and talented friend Sarah made this baby wrap for Pepper and me to enjoy. It worked great until Pepper kept nestling into my armpit and ended up in a very awkward position. We may have to stick to the sling for a few more weeks.
With my mom's help, I'm slowly getting back into the swing of things as far as feeding my family is concerned. I decided to make homemade pizzas the other night and I must say the results were pretty fabulous! Just a shout out to my bread machine:)
For anyone trying to decorate with vinyl lettering or Uppercase Living products, here are some examples of what I've done in our new place.
Well, once again I hope and pray that all mothers, grandmothers, potential mothers and women with a mothers heart know how special they are today and how grateful we are for their love and examples. I know I would be lost without my mother and mother-in-law! They are both such amazing women who do and give so much for their families and friends. I know as a mother I will be forever in their debt.

I love Love LOVE your haircut. It looks absolutely FABULOUS on you. What a blessing to have your mom helping out with so much. Mothers are truly wonderful and I remember your mom being up there with the best of them. Happy Mother's Day to you both.
I like the haircut! Very nice. Happy Mother's Day to you! Beautiful flowers. I love you guys.
Gotta agree, the new haircut definitely suits you! I'm kinda stumped about that wrap problem, though. Maybe try pulling her arms out on each side, like she's hugging you, and cinch up the wrap a little tighter so she's riding higher on your chest. Hope you're able to keep using it! Anyway, happy Mother's Day, Beth!!
Love the hair - can hardly wait for you to do Thundercats with it, too! ;-) Beautiful flowers - tulips are my favorite! I cannot believe how big your new place is! You look so happy, Beth! We love you!
