My First Mother's Day

Well, it is the end of a great first Mother's Day. Being a mom this year definitely changed my view of the day...and I actually think it should be more of a mother's week and not just a day!! Alex got a card for me, and Alicia gave me one too!! It even had scribbly little squiggles in it that she made!! We started with church this morning, and then went to IKEA to get a rack for the kitchen, because I kept turning the oven on with our oversized pots in it and not realizing it until I could smell the plastic handles burning...so, we had to hang the pots. It was nice to walk through the store, and we felt like we got a lot of exercise since you walk several miles through their maze before you can get out of there!! Then we came home to relax and I worked on wedding invitations (they're getting put in the mail tomorrow!!). Then, we went to dinner with the family...Alex's family of course! It was a good time catching up with his parents who just got back from Germany, and of course great to see Vane, Silvia, Ken, Jen and Abuela as well:) After that Alex, Alicia and I swung by the beach and took some pics. Alicia saw pics at the beach on her cousins blog, so she wanted them too!! She thought that H+M's slides looked a little too crazy for her though! So, enjoy the pics!! I tried to add more pics, but it is taking forever, and I'm tired...so maybe later!! Love you all, I had a great day, and I love being a MOM!!

Sorry, I don't know why these are so small???

Happy belated Mother's Day! The picture on the top of the two of you is just breaking my heart! To get the pics bigger make sure you click small, medium, or large when you're uploading- it should work! (Blogger really sucks sometimes, though!)
