My first Mother's (Day) Weekend celebration was fabulous. Yes...Chris and I decided to take the "Day" out of Mother and Father's Day and make it "Weekend" instead. My weekend celebration began when Ava and I walked into the house Friday following our afternoon walk. Fresh flowers, gummi bears (one of my all time favorites) and four Mommy Coupons were sitting on the counter. Mommy Coupons are redeemable at anytime. One coupon is good for a dinner cooked by the daddy - including the shopping and clean up. One coupon is good for a fabulous back rub - no matter how tired the daddy is! The third coupon is good for a day of pedicure, shopping and relaxation without little Ava in tow AND a coupon for one all night free of baby duty. WOW! I woke up Saturday morning with a beautiful package to open. It was a necklace with a framed charm of an adorable photo of Ava in it, her birthstone, a charm with her name and another charm with the letter "H". I really love it! I woke up Sunday morning to a fabulous cup of coffee followed by breakfast in bed. The menu: fresh mango, free range egg served in a homemade tortilla, buttermilk pancakes with syrup (yum!) and free range crispy pork bacon. Chris bathed Ava every night over the weekend...including Sunday, played with her most of the day and handled all of her feedings. By Sunday evening, Ava did not feel that it was necessary to come to me. I said "come to mommy", but she did not budge. We laughed because this has never happened before. She stayed in her daddy's arms and let him put her to bed. It was adorable. I absolutely love that they are buddies and that I had the most fabulous weekend ever!
