Queen For Two Days!!!

I was spoiled rotten this Mother's Day and had a two day celebration! It started on Saturday when I got this recliner (modeled by Gavin below). Kind of funny gift for a woman, I know! But I have had lots of people tell me that's what they slept in after having a c-section. To me the hardest part of recovering from c-sections is getting out of bed which you are doing a lot of with a newborn, so hopefully this little baby will make my life easier. I keep teasing Chris that I'm going to start watching sports and falling asleep in it every night and never sleep in our bed again. I would add snoring to the list but Chris tells me I have been doing that for awhile now. How pathetic is that? I lay the blame completely on my allergies.

Then I tortured my children with a photo shoot. The mere mention of a photo shoot is enough to send Gavin into tears so this was quite the sacrifice. Next, I was treated to dinner at Olive Garden and ice cream from Dairy Queen. On Sunday, I got french toast for breakfast, and a nap after lunch. Plus a real feast for dinner. Chris went all out! Steak, grilled shrimp, fresh corn on the cob and asparagus, his famous red potatoes and mozzarella sticks. The children agreed that we should have mozzarella sticks for dinner more often. Followed by cake and ice cream for desert. Okay, so basically I just ate my way through the past two days. Maybe that recliner isn't so far off the mark for me after all.
