In honor of Mother's day tomorrow, I want to tell our Moms how much they mean to us and we are so thankful for them in our lives. We love you!!
My Grandma....my kids' great Grandma! This is her first time meeting Aiden! We are so thankful for all that she has done and had to sacrifice in her life to raise her five children.
My Mom!! We are so thankful for all that she does for us and being there when we need her. And she loves our kids just as much as we do which means a lot!!
Trav's Mom! We are also thankful for all that she does and that she loves our kids as much as we do.
And I'm thankful for a wonderful husband that brings me home beautiful flowers and breakfast in bed!! Love you honey!

He wasn't supposed to get me in the background of this pic nursing Aiden:P O-well.
And to our honorary Mother......Aiden's second Mommy, Miss Makenna!! She loves her brother so much and feels so bad after what happened the other day. She was holding him and got up and started walking around with him. I didn't see this since I was changing Jordyn's diaper and next thing I know, I hear a 'thump'. I rush over to the front room and Aiden is laying on the floor on his back and Kenna has this awful look on her face. I freaked out and examined Aiden up and down and he stopped crying right after I loved on him. Makenna ran up the stairs balling her eyes out. I felt bad for both of my 'babies'. I know she didn't mean to drop him and it broke my heart that she was so upset. But at the same time I hoped that it taught her a lesson to not walk around with him. I calmed her down after I calmed down and took her to school. I was worried and weepy all morning and finally called a pediatrician in our ward (his son is in Kenna's joy school) to see if I could come over and have him check Aiden out. He was more than willing and gave him a full examination. He told me he was fine and then I was finally able to relax a little bit. I still wouldn't put him down for the rest of the day though:) A very scary experience (one that I hope not to repeat) but that is the life of a MOM!! You never know what the day will bring you. Frustration, sadness and maybe some irritation but oh so much joy and happiness that can fill your heart and more!! I'm so thankful that my Heavenly Father trusted me with these sweet spirits and allowed me to be a Mom and I just hope that I can do as good of a job as the Mothers in my life.
Our sweet second Mommy!! :)

Makenna loves him so much. Danny pulled the basinet over and dropped you out on the floor when you were new. You turned out ok. Accidents happen. Ken will never let you forget when she fell down the stairs. You have been truly blessed. So have I. I am thankful to have you as a daughter. I love you.
Glad you had a great mother's day! Love ya!
It seems we all have ups and downs after the new one arrives. He is so precious and I know Kenna loves him so much and wants to 'mother' him. Hopefully she will wait awhile (long time) to walk around with him again. He is so handsome--that was a great Mother's Day gift for you and the grandmas! Thanks for being such a good mom to your kids. So glad you live close by so we can see them often.
