Mother's Day 2010

It was my first Mother's day and it was so special!! We spent the weekend with all our mothers!

Friday we went to Cold Spring and Bishop and I hung out with Grandma Froehle, while Luke worked in the afternoon. Luke and I went to our friends, Ben and Jen's for dinner that night and to hang out. Saturday morning we took Grandma Froehle out for Mother's day--we went to Kay's Kitchen and Jake was able to join us.

Saturday night was girls night out! I went out with Carrie, Molly and Lisa-we went to Moscow on the Hill for dinner and went across the street to W.A. Frost for an after dinner drink. The guys all hung out at the McGovern's, with the kids, while the girls enjoyed a night out!! It was great and we all decided we weren't waiting until next Mother's day to do it again!

Mother's Day morning we stopped at The Angry Catfish for a fresh cup of coffee and then picked up donuts at the Mel-O-Glaze Bakery. It was our first experience at Mel-O-Glaze and it was WONDERFUL!! Those donuts are the real thing! Then we went to Owatonna where we celebrated with Grandma B and Great-Grandma Loken. Grandma B made us brunch and we enjoyed our time together! Bishop got me a Nick Punto Twins shirt....as Punto is my favorite Twin and I currently only have a Santana shirt (and Santana no longer plays for the Twins).

That afternoon we took a walk to SeaSalt....it was perfect! We walked to SeaSalt and hung out outside the entire afternoon/evening, eating delicious seafood and drinking beer/wine! We were there for 3 hours! We took Bishop in the Chariot and he did great! He had a blowout, so it was a good thing we brought diapers and extra clothes.

All in all, it was the perfect 1st Mother's day! I LOVE being a mother and Bishop makes it so easy, as he is such a good baby boy!! I could never have imagined how much joy he would bring to my life or how much I would enjoy EVERY second with him, but it has been amazing!!

Bishop is 3 months old today! It's amazing to see how much he's grown and changed in the first 3 months of his life. He is such a happy boy--he is smiling, laughing and talking a lot these days! One of his favorite things to do is to lay on his activity mat and kick his legs and look and listen to the star above him!

I am so blessed to have a healthy, happy boy!!
