Mother's day is almost upon on us again, so I was looking at pictures from Mother's Day last year and kept thinking "this was only a year ago?!"
Kids are tricky like that...you feel like they are growing up so quickly, but yet like they have been a part of your life forever. I have to keep reminding myself that OG has been in our lives for less than 2 years so no, she wasn't around "that one time when ___". It just seems so odd!
So that I don't keep confusing myself based on the feeling that OG has been around for years, my Mother's Day timeline is:
- My "First" Mother's Day: I was pregnant and didn't think it counted yet, but everyone else assured me that it did. My loving husband scored a free fudge cake from Bob Evans based on the fact that I was indeed a Mother, so I'll count it as well. :) And that fudge cake hit. the. spot. Mmmm, pregnancy splurges.
-My Second Mother's Day/First MD w/ OG: We had a low-key dinner at Dedi's where OG tried her first "real food" (non-milk/formula) - baby oatmeal! She was confused at first but then wanted to feed herself moments later. She's always been an overachiever. <3
-My Third Mother's Day: will be this Sunday. Plans thus far include another low-key dinner at Dedi's and most likely hanging with Grandma & Grandpa sometime that afternoon. All I need is time with my sweet OG and I'll be a happy camper.
For her First Mother's Day not hanging out in my uterus (aka: last year), OG wore:
-Mother's Day bib that was just for decoration
-Heavy-duty "because there will most likely be a mess" food catching bib
-An outfit. It never mattered with all the bibs she was wearing!

Wishing all of the mommas out there a very Happy Mother's Day!
