My First Mother's Day

I just realized that I didn't post about my first Mother's Day!

It was so great. Busy, but great. We went to church, then headed over to my sister's house for a lunch/dinner to celebrate. My family also had to all be in the same place in order for all of us to talk on the phone to Kimberly who is on a mission and is currently serving in PEI. Some of us didn't get long to talk to her, but it was great to hear from her, and I could tell that she really enjoyed hearing all of our voices. After that we went over to Spence and Laurie's house for dessert. Dan's parents were there too. It was so great to see everyone on Mother's Day!

Dan got me a KitchenAid Mixer for Mother's Day! We had been wanting one for awhile, and we finally saw one on sale at Costco so we bought it! I love it already! I am so blessed to have the family that I have. Thanks for the best first Mother's Day ever!

Favorite Daddy

I have been reading books to Casper for awhile now. He got a new book from Grandma Glenn for Easter called "Fred and Ted Like to Fly". He loves it! He smiles and grabs at the pictures whenever I read it to him.

Yesterday Dan read this book to him, and it was like he never heard the story before! Near the end of the book, he burst into laughter! Then I had Dan read it to him again, and he laughed hysterically throughout the whole story.

So this morning I read the same story to him and all I got was smiles, no laughing. Then once Dan got home, I had him read it to him again. Dan read the title and Casper started laughing! I guess Daddy has the magic touch.

I'm so glad that Casper has a dad like Dan. He gets so happy once Dan gets home everyday. And on Saturday and Sunday mornings Casper just smiles at Dan because he just loves being with him. Thank you Dan for being the best daddy for Casper! We both love you!
