A Little Bit of Momma's Day Before Momma's Day

This morning Mommy made Daddy go and get me a half and half coffee from Big Ben, a newspaper, and then I had Daddy make me an egg omelet (Daddy makes the BEST omelets).  I figure since Daddy says we have to celebrate his birthday all month long, and Father's Day all month long, Mommy can surely get a good cup of coffee, a newspaper, and an egg omelet the day before Mother's Day! :)  Mommy found out from Debbie Riffe, that Mr. Murff and Mr. Arlo were on today's front page of the newspaper (yet another nice early Mother's Day gift).  They were previewed in the top right hand corner, advertising for readers to submit photos :)  Mommy was so stoked!  I have officially managed to get all of my babies featured in the Kokomo Tribune.  Mommy looked online and discovered, all of Mommy's photos were selected and posted online too!  I don't know if I previously mentioned, but I recently discovered two more of Mommy's photos highlighted online as well.  It was the picture of Mommy, the Federspill girls, and you two sitting with the Easter bunny at Easy Acre Farms.  Also, a picture of Aunt Amanda with Mia and Ava at Easy Acre Farms was posted online!  :)  Momma is on a roll!   We'll see tomorrow if they actually print a large picture of Mr. Murff and Mr. Arlo (I'm so excited to find out)!

Mommy played with you both all morning, and I even managed to get Daddy's finals for his classes graded for him.  Daddy was out mowing and doing lawn work (which is Mommy's favorite chore but Daddy hogs it), however, Mommy cashed in her pedicure gift certificate from Christmas, which made up for not getting to mow and garden.   Mommy even found a black and white vintage dress for you, Bodhi.  It coordinates with Mommy's dress... so we'll be coordinated for our family photo.  Mommy decided against having you wear your Easter outfit for the picture (it is brown and cream).  Plus, GiGi and Grandmoo are always on Mommy to put you in dresses.  Well, you have a pretty little dress to wear :)  After Mommy went shopping and got a pedicure, I called Daddy to check on you two.  Daddy was managing just fine, and it was nice that Daddy didn't call Mommy every 15 minutes asking questions hee/hee  Mommy felt bad not spending any time with the two of you this evening, so I picked you up, Bodhi,  and took you with me to pick out Grandmoo's hanging flower plant for her Mother's day present.  It's tradition... I always buy Grandmoo flowers, and she always buys GiGi flowers :)  Bodhi, while at the store, you "ooooh'd" at all the flowers and you even managed to pick a flower when Mommy wasn't looking, and after I told you "NO" 100 times!  You are something else girl!  Jude, you were happy playing with your Daddy.  When Mommy walked in you were smiling and having a good time.  Your cheeks are still real red and irritated.  I think you might be allergic to your medication.  I think your ears are still bothering you too, you keep wanting to sleep sitting up and cry when you lay flat :(  Mommy is going to call and get you back into the doctor Monday.  Your diaper rash is slowly improving though.

Mr. Murff Macbeth's and Mr. Arlo Ben-Rubi's debut in the Kokomo Tribune ;)

This was taken last night after Daddy's Award ceremony... Mommy had to do the blog and Jude, you didn't want to go to sleep by yourself.  This is actually the second picture I took, you smiled in your sleep :)

Buddha and Bodhi playing with their Daddy while Mommy was away ;)

Buddha on Daddy's Buddha belly ;)

"Hi Momma!" ;)

Bodhi, you hate the Mommarazzi... so you've started shoving your baby bears into Momma's camera lens!  AND... what's that in your mouth?  I see how Daddy operates while Momma is away!  You aren't allowed to have the binky until you go down for a nap or bedtime ;) Such a sucker, just like your Daddy!

Steady there Juders

Bodhi in the car with Momma... on our way to get Grandmoo her Mother's Day flowers ;)

To Candace, Wow, what a small world!  I can never post a comment on here (lack of knowledge on my part I'm certain), so I thought I'd leave you a note on here :)  I'm glad you enjoy our blog, did you hear about it from Jane?  And, yes, it's true... Jane never ages!  When I took her picture, she asked if it looked ok hee/hee I told her she doesn't take a bad picture :)
