Technically I guess I was a mother last year but I consider this is my first Mother's Day. It was a good day. I woke up with no voice and was feeling a little sick, which was a little stressful because I spoke in sacrament meeting today. Anyway, Lexi and I cuddled in bed this morning. Sean made "creepies" aka crepes for the first time. They turned out great Sweetie. And then we just played before church because I had no church meetings, hurray! Our Relief Society presidency spoke in Sacrament and we did a great job (minus my scratchy voice).
Since it's Mother's Day, I'll like to send a shot out to all the mothers in my life - all my aunts, "grandmas", my wonderful mother-in-law Kristi, my two amazing sisters-in-law Val and Michelle, women in my home ward and all my momma friends. And most importantly my own mom! I just want to public tell my mother - I love you! I am so grateful for all the sacrafices you have made to better my life and make me happy. It makes me feel so great that you love my daughter so much. You are not only an amazing mother but an amazing grandmother ("Gigi").
Here are some pictures of my journey into motherhood...

we arent sure. we'll stay in the ward if he gets an internship in rexburg, but i dont even think he's applied for any here? he has an interview in IF on friday. If he gets that we might move to Rigby? other than that we're looking all over the US!
