Happy Mother's Day!

It was quite a change for me this year for Mother's Day.  I had always celebrated the other mother figures in my life, and this year, I was the one to be celebrated (along with all the other mothers, of course).  On Sunday, Oliver and I walked down to the Ballard Farmers Market to pick up some fresh cut flowers.  This is now the ONLY place I buy flowers if I can help it.  You can get a huge bouquet of fresh flowers for $5 - $15 depending on how big you want it.  I picked up three bouquets and walked around a bit more before heading back home.

The family was coming over for dinner, so Tim and I cleaned a little and I made dinner.  Miss Chelsea was in top form last night.  Both her and Oliver were wearing tank tops like it was summer!

This one is a little grainy - but still super cute. 
Cutie patooties

Earlier in the day, Oliver crawled into the bathroom (his new favorite hangout).  I was folding laundry in the next room.  I am learning that if I don't hear anything, he's probably up to no good.  Case in point (and look at his guilty face):
"Naughty" Oliver unrolls the TP.

Yes, that is toilet paper!  Oliver unrolled the whole thing.  Luckily it was just about halfway done.  We now have it all sitting in the sink to use.
Toilet paper is fun

It's hard to get mad about something like this.  Especially when he smiles up at you and giggles like he knows he did something he wasn't supposed to. 

We had a great but way-to-quick weekend.  Happy Mother's Day!

  1. I love the muscle onesie Carrie! He is just too cute...I had to show his photo (the one in the tulip field) to one of my friends and they just gushed. They also love little O's name. Glad to hear you had a great Mother's Day. You're an awesome Mom!
