For Mother's Day, Paul cooked yummy French Toast for breakfast and I got to enjoy the morning with my two favorite guys. Aidan gave me a red tote bag (actually, I picked it up at Costco the day before and claimed it as Aidan's gift to Mommy) and Paul and Aidan gave me a Willow Tree figurine of a Mother holding her Baby. I love this artist's work and love the fact that my 1st Mother's Day is symbolized by this figurine. :)After breakfast, Paul and I got the digital camera and, since Aidan was in a good mood, took the liberty of balancing items on his head and taking pictures. You can see them all here. Ah, one of the perks of parenthood-- creating images to show to his future prom date.
Later, the Ruelos and McJannet familes came over for a BBQ, featuring Paul's new gas grill! What an upgrade from our old grill-- bigger, better and pretty. Paul put it through its paces-- we confirmed that it can cook steak, chicken, salmon, shrimp and vegetables all at the same time. Sweet!
Before we had Aidan, get togethers with our families were relegated to holidays and birthdays. Now, we see our folks all the time as they crave time with their first grandson. It's a nice change and I'm enjoying watching our parents turn to goo when they are around Aidan.
