Wordless Wednesday

"Hurry, take our mad picture!"

Afternoon at Dauphin Island

After this yummy lunch yesterday..

and, an awesome afternoon nap.

We decided to go watch the sunset at the beach.

It was quiet, cool, and not too crowded - aka PERFECT!
We took 117 pictures, mainly of Josh & Kaidence. I am working on his Father's Day gift :)

Here are a few of my favorites...

I dont think they're too bad for a Sony Cyber-shot :)
Hopefully, I will get a point and shot one day so I can take real pictures.

My First Mother's Day

"What did my hands do before they held this child?

What id I think about, worry about, dream about?

What things touched my heart before I saw this child's smile,

before I heard this child's cry,

before I felt this incredible bond?
Who was I before I became this child's mother?
Somehow, now, I can't remember."

This was on the card my MIL & FIL sent me for Mother's Day!

I love it!

It's so true, I really don't remember life before being Kaidence's Mommy!
I know she is only 7 months old - but, my life has changed so, so much and I am so, so thankful!

I have had a wonderful Mother's Day {weekend!}

Josh has done so much for me, I am so thankful for my precious, precious husband and baby girl!
We have been to Dauphin Island to the beach, had dinner at Red Lobster's, and today he fixed me breakfast.

He & Kaidence bought me the Lady Antebellum CD and a new hibiscus tree for my gifts!
He is now grilling some yummy steaks and ribs for lunch & dinner.
We are going to enjoy a great lunch, watch movies, and just spend time together today! :)

And just for fun, this was Mother's Day last year.

I was 4 or 5 months pregnant.

I am glad I have my precious girl here with me this year, instead of taking awkward tummy pictures...

how I really felt about all the pictures...HA!

HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY

to all you wonderful Mommy's out there!

Britax Advocate CS Convertible Car Seat Giveaway

Dee at Two of a Kind, working on a full house is giving away a Britax Advocate CS Convertible Car Seat.

We have been looking at convertible carseats for Kaidence because she does not like her infant car seat anymore!

How great would it be to win one of the top rated convertible car seats that value at $369.99 for Miss K?!

I think she would look super cute riding in style in this brown & pink seat!

Cross your fingers, toes, and eyes for us! ;) HA!
