I have to say I had a much better day than I anticipated. I felt very selfish thinking my hubs wouldn't come thru. he tried very hard to make it a special day. The day however proved to be exhausting. We had a lot on our plates.
We went to Mass at a new church Sunday morning that we had wanted to try out again. I don't think either of us had been there in years. I have to say I was touched by the priest's sermon more than any that I have heard since our old pastor left from our parish. It was fairly packed for such and early mass. we've struggled with the thought of joining there. We hope to live out in that area and we plan on sending Miss Gracie to Catholic school and it seems liek one of the best in the city. The downside is that the church and that area are booming. I hated crowded masses. I didn't see anyone I knew which is scary but it was that way when we started at St. Johns. I don't think we'll make a jump just yet, maybe go a few weeks and see how we feel about it. Gracie was an angel in mass although she popped her diaper so that was interesting lol.
After mass we came home for a short time and I opened my card and gifts. John got me this great picture frame that says mommy and me. I love it. I need to get a photo printed to put in it. He also got me a gold necklace with a pendant that said mom and had some diamonds on it. The chain is too small and the bale is too small for it to fit the gold chain I have so unfortunately i am going to have to find a new chain for it. He told me he also got me a cake and we had to get it from Kroger. I so loved this but do not need to eat more cake lol. I need to get back on my diet. I have gained 12 pounds since I stopped nursing Gracie...ehh. My weight is just so up and down but I'll get back where I am happy about myself.
We then went to my moms. she enjoyed a couple of hours with us. Hubs fell asleep on the couch. I was tired as well, neither of us slept well the night before. We then ran to get the cake and delivered it home. Next we were off to his moms. We got to see her new house and it was really nice. I am happy for her she seems happy. My poor allergies are worse then before Gracie. She has some cats and man my nose was acting up. I think mostly long haired cats bother me but I don't know. It was a nice visit though. I was glad she got to see Miss Gracie. She hadn't seen her since her baptism and she just loves her so much. Gracie did well too. She loves people.
When we left we had spoke about running home for a nap. Miss Gracie had cat napped in my arms at her Grama Garbers but she needed one bad and so did we but instead we decided to go to Bandidos and have my Mothers Day dinner. I had osme margaritas and dinner was wonderful. They were also handing out gift cards to moms for $10 off your next visit. I thought that was sweet. Gracie was awake the whoel tiem we were there but sat in her carseat and played with Sophie and was just an angel. After dinner we drove by a few homes that are for sale and then headed home.
We all were tired and I decided we'd start Miss Garcie's bed time routine since she hadn't napped much all day. Needless to say when it was all said and done she was up till 11 PM. EHHHHH! Rough night. In between we watched tv and had cake. I was out when my head hit the pillow. I think she just had too busy of a day with a ton of running around. I enjoyed the day with my family though. I had Daddy take photos even though I so need my hair colored and so need a wax and so need to lose 30 pounds but oh well it's all a memory. If I had no photos I'd be wishing I did. I hope you all had a nice Moms Day too!
