Happy Mother's Day!

Mother's Day was nothing short of perfect this year. All because of course, I am a mother to four beautiful little girls.

What could be better than that?

Nothing. 

Absolutely nothing.

I love being their Momma day in and day out.

All the laundry.

All the sleepless nights.

All the "work" it takes for four kids.

I wouldn't change a thing.

Two years ago I was in the middle of our first IVF.

Last year the girls were four months old and I was pregnant with Emily, but didn't know it.

This year, I held each of them and thanked the Lord I am celebrating the day.







I am a mother because of them.


We enjoyed a quiet morning full of laundry, cleaning and cooking. Ya know, a mother's job never stops...but that's okay. It's just another day after all.


I basically just did some light cooking and the laundry while Tim cleaned, cleaned and cleaned. He just wouldn't stop and I didn't complain.


Around 3PM, my parents arrived and brought my grandma up from her house to celebrate the day with us. It was so wonderful. She hadn't seen our new home yet and hasn't seen the girls for a few months. My sister and her boyfriend arrived and we all enjoyed a nice meal together.


My dad --caught off guard-- and E.



Please ignore the bib!

I loved that we had three generations of Moms here and four generations of women! A Great-Grandma, a Grandma and a Mom!






The girls enjoyed playing and being silly!











Also...I must brag for a minute...when the girls are playing with these blocks and I say "clean up" they will start putting/throwing each block into the pink crate until there's no more! SO proud! I have no idea how long it will last but for now it's AWESOME!


It was great to catch up with everyone and enjoy each other. 


Hope all you Mommas out there had a wonderful day!
