Sunday was my first Mother's Day as a mom...and wow, do I have so much more appreciation for my own mom! Being a mom is the best, most challenging, more love than I can express, most tiring, sweetest, etc, etc, etc. thing in the world! I wouldn't trade being a mom for anything in the world! I am blessed beyond anything I dreamed or deserved by having Brad and Jadon in my life!
For Mother's Day Brad and Jadon got me flowers and a sweet card. Brad also let me sleep as much as possible. :) We enjoyed a good italian dinner that night too!
We were able to celebrate Mother's Day with Brad's mom the weekend before. We had a great time, mostly shopping and eating. :) It's always nice to be able to be with family!
My parents, brother, and sister are coming at the end of this month. We are already planning a rangers game, canton trip, etc.
Jadon is 6 months...and counting! :) At his 6 month check up he was 26 inches long and 14.4 lbs. (Yes, a little on the small side but that's ok...just means more food!) His shots made him a little grumpy the rest of the day but then he was back to himself the next day. His sleep schedule is usually wake up around 4 to eat but back to sleep until 7 (when daddy leaves), nap 10-11:30, nap 2:30-4, bedtime between 8-8:30. He loves to eat baby food! So far he has liked everything we have given him except formula (of course, his favorites being fruits). He can sit up by himself but is not even attempting to crawl yet. Brad thinks he will skip crawling and go straight to walking. I felt a tooth this morning, while feeding :( ...his first one (his bottom left).
We are looking forward to a fun summer of daddy being off work, traveling, seeing some family (Jadon's first time), swimming, etc!
