Father's Day

This post is a little late. But that is my life right now. Getting things done when I have time... and that is ok.

Daniel and I are not big celebrators, so we didn't do a whole lot for Father's Day beyond grabbing a bite to eat at Cantina Laredo and popping into Barnes&Noble so that Daniel could spend time perusing his favorite magazines. 

I think I speak for both of us when I say that we are feeling more and more blessed by our little guy with each passing day. We have enjoyed close to 10 years of marriage, but Jack has just made everything that much sweeter.

Becoming parents also makes life harder. There is this huge responsibility to shoulder. A responsibility that you really can't be prepared for regardless of how long you choose to wait. 

I am so thankful that Daniel is my partner in this thing called parenthood. He really loves our little boy. You can see it when he bathes Jack, when he changes diapers, when he blows raspberries on Jack's bare skin and when he explains the workings of the world to him.

I am so blessed to have this wonderful man in my life who is a great dad to our son.

Mother's Day

For my first Mother's Day I told Daniel that I wanted to go hiking. Since it rained all day that was a no go. Instead we went to Cantino Laredo for lunch where we shared Fajitas.

After lunch I treated myself to a little shopping at Old Navy before meeting up with Daniel at Barnes and Noble where we shared a Venti Vanilla Latte and Chocolate Mousse Cheesecake.

I feel so blessed to be Jack's mom. I can't believe it has been six months since he entered our lives!
