Happy Mother's Day!

This was my second Mother's Day and it will be unforgettable. Why, do you ask? Well, at about 1:30 am, we woke to the sound of Ava chocking and then puking. Mike and I sprang out of bed, ran in, picked her up and realized that she wasn't done throwing up. I ran her to the bathroom, but quickly found out that she doesn't want to be turned out towards the sink, but in towards my chest. So I was puked on first thing this Mom's Day. It was not my first and certainly won't be my last! We got her all cleaned up, read some books and then put her back down, only to be awoken again about 30 mins later to the same thing and again, I was puked on. By the third time, I grabbed a towel to use as a buffer. I felt so bad for my little girl. We don't know why she was sick, but that was the end of it. She did wake up one last time, just scared, around 2:45. I just picked her up and put her on my chest and rocked her in the rocking chair for about a half hour while she slept. That part I enjoyed sooo much! She was fine by morning.

Mike brought me coffee in bed, which is all I wanted, even though we could barely open our eyes because we were so tired for being up most of the night. I still drank it and loved every minute of it. Thanks hon! We had already decided on Friday that we were going to go to the Farmer's Market in Ahwahtukee and Ava seemed to be ok, so we packed up and headed out. I was a bit disappointed. Not many booths of fresh veggies/fruits or flowers. It was really small too, but we still walked out with some hummus and salsa. We came home and cleaned the house in preparation for the family to come over for lunch and dessert. It was really nice and low key. I made a fabulous carrot cake for dessert. Yummy! It was just a really nice day and happy that I have my little Ava to help celebrate it with. Love her to pieces.
I wish I had some pictures to post, but I am only posting because the TV in my bedroom is on it's last leg and I can't stand to watch it with lines running through it. It is too dark to fool around with a camera, so check back later this week.

Not looking forward to this week at work as we moved offices last week and our systems were down the ENTIRE week. I know, crazy,right? So I have a lot of catching up to do. Oh well, such is life.

Hope everyone else had a great mom's day!
