Happy Mother's Day!!

It was killing me (and I am sure my mom too) that we had not seen each other since I found out I was pregnant. With that in mind I decided last minute to go home and surprise her. I packed my bags Friday night when I got home from work ate some diner and got to bed early...I knew Saturday was going to be a fun but long day!

Got on the road Saturday around 8 am and made it to mom's house by 11 am. It was so wonderful to get a great big hug from her. I knew she was excited and happy to see me by the smile on her face. I knew right away this was the best mother's day gift I could have given her. We got some yummy breakfast (I have been dying for pancakes hahaha!!!) Then off to the mall to go maternity cloths shopping.

When we got to the store we scanned all the racks and started grabbing everything. Before I knew it we each had two giant arm fulls of cloths. Now it was off to the giant dressing room where I tried everything on and mom critiqued... it was actually fun shopping for a change!

Did I ever express how much I LOVE maternity cloths. Everything fit perfectly(which for you bigger girls you know how much that can be an issue)!!!!! Then to top it off I finally look pregnant in maternity cloths not just fat. FINALLY! And maternity pants yeah you feel like a dork w/ elastic waist bands but can i say COMFY!!!

We left the dressing room with most of what we went in with hahaaha!!! I must say that was the most successful and quickest shopping trips I think I have ever taken.

We ran some other errands at Target and Lowes and then it was finally time for diner. We were exhausted and hungry!!! (heck i am always hungry lately) I was sooo pumped to find out we were getting Japanese. I have been itching for some good Japanese and I just haven't found a place I trust back home. Diner was outstanding as always!!!

With full bellies and tired feet we went home and got into comfy cloths to eat some ice cream and veg in front of the TV... where I promptly fell asleep! It was nice to have my mom wake me up and put me to bed again... just like when I was a little girl!! I miss that! Soon enough I will be doing that for my child.... how fast life changes!!!

Sunday was filled with breakfast at mom & dad's and chatting at the table with my parents. I was sad to leave but I knew I couldnt stay forever. I had work the next day and a fair amount of work that needed to be done at home before Monday came. Its always sad to leave but now more than ever I have a reason to vist home more often!! I am looking forward to the next time i see my parents and get to hug them again. Until then our long chats at night will have to do.

Happy mother's day mom... I had a great time!!! I love you!!!
