Mother's Day May 11, 2008

I can't believe I'm a mother. It seems a little surreal. To think that I am now the full time care giver of a cute little girl. It makes me both proud and a little nervous to think of such a responsibility. I know that I have great examples of mother's in my own life, my mother, my grandmothers, and even my mother-in-law. I just hope that I can do as good of a job as they have done.

Mother's Day was Jade's first day at church. I gave her a bath and dressed her in a cute little white dress with a pink cardigan. She looked so adorable. People were surprised that I would bring her to church only a week old but I figured the weather was nice enough that she wouldn't be at risk for catching a cold and I just kept her covered up the entire time so she wouldn't catch any germs from people. She did really well. She slept the entire time. Didn't even cry once. I was hoping she would wake up so that I could take her out of her carrier and show her off but alas she was way too good.



Later that day we went to my parent's house and celebrated Mother's Day and my Grandma Bills' birthday. We had our cinco de mayo party a little late due to Jade being born. The food was fantastic-mexican food of course. Then our favorite tradition, the pinata. It was very fun. Dad has a film of it, it's classic.
