Some of my Favorite Mommy Memories (*warning* excessive snuggling is involved*) Include the Follwing :


            Snuggling my babies, including the one in my tummy (no, I'm not pregnant again: old pics).

 Snuggling my babies & the sweet smell of a newborn. This is the day I brought Gideon home from the hospital & that's Micah hugging his new brother. I know I look totally wiped out. Cuz I was. But I wouldn't change a thing.


More snuggling..........babies in my bed. That little spot between Isaac & Titus was my spot. Some mornings still look like that, although they're all a bit bigger now..........and I'm more squished.

Feeling a baby growing inside of me.


                                                                             
                                                                                 To be honest, I don't miss this part so much.


                                                   Making boo-boos all better.

                                                        Snuggling my babies............
                                                     Playing with my kids.................
...........watching them express themselves............
                                        Sharing motherhood with my sisters.........

                                        Not THIS so much.............



                                       Watching my kids love each other.................
                                     Watching my kids play together.................
                  

                                     Watching the love of my life play with our children..............

                                       Watching my kids snuggle...................

                                      Watching Justin snuggle my kids............

                              Camping with my kids..............and snuggling.........
                                      Seth has especially always loved the snuggling part.


                                             Getting dirty with my kids...........


                                Bringing new ones home from the hospital: Titus' first bath.



                                                                        
                                        My mama-in-law, who has always been there for me & my family, in so many ways. She has always been on my side & supported me.....through good times & especially the bad. I definitely don't recommend giving birth without someone like her to help. Mom, I love you forever.




And last, but most certainly not least..............snuggling my own mama, who changed my diapers, wiped my boogies, stroked my forehead when I was sick, talked with me endless hours about boys, love & life & put up with my bratty teenager ways. Mom, I'm glad God made you my mommy. I love you forever.

          Another favorite mommy memory: yesterday, when all my boys & hubby made me feel so special. Hope all you terrific moms had as sweet of a Mother's Day as I did!!!
