Mother's day was filled with lots of love, homemade gifts, lots of relaxation for mommy, ok, not the last one, but it was fun nonetheless. As usual, daddy was on call, so no real mother's day plans could be made as he might have to dash off to work. BUT, daddy and I did make mommy breakfast, while she and Remi made books and we did get her a gift... A NEW WAFFLE MAKER! Yup, that's right, daddy is following in his father and father-in-law's footsteps, by buying mommy something to cook with! I'm getting conflicting information regarding the appropriateness of this tradition. Meanwhile, daddy was thrilled with the new purchase, as he was the only one who had issues with our old waffle maker!
Our morning was spent just hanging out as a family, something we so rarely get to do and the time was enjoyed by all. Mommy's real mother's day gift was the removal of ALL of the extra mulch that had been sitting in our driveway. We ordered 8 cubic yards of mulch to be delivered, 6 for us and 2 for our neighbor. Well, we had all mulched our hearts out and still had a TON left over. Turns out that the nursery we purchased the mulch from had made a delivery mistake. We got someone else's 11 cubic feet of mulch! So, we started dolling out the mulch to friends neighbors, anyone who wanted it b/c mommy wanted it gone!
The afternoon was a beautiful spring day, so I of course, requested that we get the tractor out... I tractor had to be somewhat disassembled in order to store it, so after 15 minutes of putting the thing back together, Remi and I were ready to ride our motorized tractor around the neighborhood.

I was very happy
We loaded Remi up in the trailer so I could driver her around.
Then mommy and daddy thought better of it and made sure we were wearing our bike helmets. I'm still working on some of my driving skills...
