Be Still My Beating Heart: A Wonderful Sunday Morning

This past Sunday, OG and I took dada to breakfast at a quaint little place he'd mentioned the week prior. We loaded into the car, handed OG her new favorite book, Corduroy (which happens to have 2 pages of stickers slapped in the middle, hence - her new favorite) and headed out! When we arrived and dada pulled OG out of her seat...my heart exploded.

OG had placed a sticker of a bouquet of flowers on her upper arm/shoulder.

Wait for it...

Like momma's tattoo.

(Awww.....)

OG has been amused by my tattoos since birth, but particularly the flowers on my shoulder. At first, when she was a littletiny, she loved staring at all the colors. Then, when she was a bit older and started drawing and coloring, she found it interesting/humorous that momma had been colored upon. Now that OG knows about flowers - that they are pretty and smell sweet - she will sometimes sniff my arm and laugh. So as soon as I saw that she had placed this flower sticker on her shoulder...GAH!

I quickly mopped up my melted heart, gathered my emotions, and tried to remember that I was about to be in public - so I probably shouldn't happycry over a sticker.
YAY EMOTIONS! MOTHERHOOD!

Yeah, so...without further delay - please enjoy these pictures of Ms. OG with her little flower tattoo.
You may silently wonder about my sanity later. :)

OG is wearing:
-THE MOST ADORABLY LOVELY SHOULDER STICKER TATTOO
-A tank top
-Some yellow pants
-Yeah, yeah, shoes too, but did you see...
-THE LITTLE AMAZING STICKER ON HER TINY MUSCULAR BICEPT

Ok, I guess that outfit is pretty adorable too.  And hello Minnie!

And she LOVES books - I couldn't be more proud. XOXOX

You might be thinking "Well, that's an adorable post! I bet they had a fun family breakfast!" - and you'd be correct.  But...the biggest bonus of the day?  Guess who else happened to go out for breakfast that morning?

BABYCOUSIN CAMPBELL!  (with her parents, of course)

She is still very small and new to the world, so she wasn't able to join us at our table. However, we did get to watch her sleep for a bit and briefly catch up with cousin Tara and Grant.  It was great to see them out as a family!

And that Ms. Campbell is just SO PRECIOUS.

Even though this picture isn't from Sunday, it IS from Campbell's first day home a few weeks back - and as you can see she's already bringing it on the fashion front!
We're excited to see you again soon, cousin Campbell!
