Amelia's: cutest little beachy italian restraunt and really good too!

Jono was such a good husband and surprised me for mothers day with a weekend getaway. We have been saying that we need to take a weekend for just us. So Jono's parents watched our kiddos, and we took off to Newport Beach this weekend. It was really nice to go somewhere local and not have to worry about the hassle of the airport. We literally just took our time with what we did, and didn't have anything to worry about at all. This was just what we needed. Friday night we went to Roy's and then went shopping, and then stayed up late watching a movie together. Saturday, We amazingly slept in until 10am!!! Oh my gosh, I have not done that since highschool! I thought maybe the time was wrong when I opened my eyes and saw those numbers. With 3 kiddos sleeping in is 7am. I didn't care if I was being lazy and sleeping in that late, I loved it! After a well rested night, Jono was so sweet and scheduled an hour massage at the spa where we were staying! It was so fun to go with Jono, where we were both pampered and had the best massage ever. That was definitely worth it and much needed! The rest of the day we went shopping, walked around Balboa Island and wished we could live there in one of the amazing beach houses, and ate at a darling little mom and pop type itialian restraunt on Balboa called Amelias. We then ended the night seeing a late night movie! Sunday, was our last day to sleep in. WE took our time getting ready and met up at Jono's parents place where our little kids were waiting for us. They were so excited to see us, but they had soo much fun with their Mema and Papa. We loved having a couple days to ourselves, and doing all these fun activities with eachother. It brought back memories of when we were dating. I am so lucky to have Jono. He is so good to me. I love him so much and have so much fun with him. This was a perfect weekend. Now we are back to real life with our kids, but real life is also a good thing. Its good to be rejuvinated and get back to being a mom of 3.

A Happy Mothers Day

It was a great Mothers Day this year. My kids woke me up and were so excited to hold my hand and lead me out to the kitchen where a table full of goodies and flowers awaited me. The kids love doing little surprises for me. Jono Surprised me with a mini get away weekend with just the two of us...no kids! This will be the first time ever that we have gone a few nights sans kids! I am so excited to beable to spend time with just Jono. My family happened to be in town for Mothers Day, so we all got together and had a relaxing day with the family. I am so happy to be a mommy, and so thankful for my Mom! It was a good day!

Mama,Mama,Mama,Mama.....

That is what I hear from Gwen when she is having her bath time. Her little arms out strectched towards me with these funny lookin' construction goggles that were in the boys play tool box, with no lense in them, but have now turned into the bath swim goggles, begging me to put them on her. She loves putting them on, and as soon as she does, she knows she is being so cute, and funny. This girl is one funny little peanut. I love her little sense of humor. She is quite the little ham for her young age.
Gwen has to sit right under the faucet when she is taking her bath. She is just taking after her brothers. Carter & Sawyer both fight over who gets to sit right under the warm water. Now little Gwen has learned and nuzzles her way right in there. She loves to just sit there and relax and let the water run on her. If the boys try to move her out of the way to get under the water too, she's not afraid to put up a fight.(:

One lucky Mommy

I am feeling like one lucky Mommy today! I am so blessed to have these 3 cute kids as mine. Each one of them brings something special to our family. They are full of life and so fun to be with. They teach me so much. I feel so thankful for these 3, and that I am their Mommy.

Happy Mothers Day to All you Mothers! You are all so special!
