Happy Mother's Day

Happy Mother's day!
One Meal=Several spills and One big mess

Messy Boys

I enjoyed a very nice Mother's Day over the weekend. The weather was beautiful and we enjoyed a nice run followed by playing at a park and having a picnic. John and the boys had some nice gifts for me. Luke and Liam even made their first mother's day gift at school and they very proudly presented it to me. They were small wooden plaques with "Mommy's Little Helper" written on the bottom with their handprint on top. In addition to the boys gifts, John also framed one of my favorite pictures of all three boys and traced each of their handprints for the picture. Not sure how he pulled that off with all three, but he somehow managed.

The boys had their tube surgery yesterday and overall it went very well. The nurses and doctors were all very good and quite helpful since we had two having surgery plus an infant to care for. Luke and Liam had very infected ears. Liam, especially, had very compromised hearing and we have noticed improvements in less than 24 hours for him. He was already saying more words last night after the surgery and responding more to what we say.

I am posting a random picture from Mother's Day when we all ate dinner. I have mentioned before how messy dinners can be at our house and this one was no different. The picture does not do it justice. We had spilled milk (x2), food in the drink cups, fruit dumped on the table, new shirts and pants afterwards, etc... I think we ate out the next two meals after this one. Cleaning up after each meal (breakfast, lunch, and dinner) almost puts me over the top on some days.

Enjoy!
