One Lucky Mom

I had a wonderful first mothers day - my day started with breakfast in bed and then I got to open my cards from Scott and Karsten before church. Karsten showed off his future art skills on my mothers day card. I think he may have had a bit of help from Scott. :)

Karsten and Scott got me the beautiful plant you see in the picture AND a book of my blog posts! The book is in the mail on it's way to us, so I'll have to wait patiently. I'm so excited!!

Reading my card from Karsten

This cheesy smile of his cracks me up!

We had my parents over for dinner to celebrate Mother's Day. We decided my first mothers day was a good occasion to open one of the bottles of wine we bought when we were in Napa a few years ago.

I was taking the picture of the glasses with the wine when Scott set Karsten's sippy cup of water on the counter so I could put it on the table. I thought it was a good addition to the pic - showed that Karsten is here with us now. :)

Grandma and Grandpa did a great job entertaining Karsten while we finished getting dinner ready. They were tearing tissue paper from my gift - it provided ENDLESS fun and giggles.

We got a lemon meringue pie for dessert because it's Shannon's favorite. She decided Karsten would like to try some - she didn't know that she would end up sharing her pie with him. He is fan of lemon meringue pie!!
