My Mother's Day was pretty great this year. I'm not one of those moms who likes to pretend she's not a mom to celebrate Mother's Day. Instead I like to spend Mother's Day doing all the fun parts of motherhood while I let someone else do the not-so-fun parts (i.e. changing diapers, getting up early, cleaning up after meals, etc.).
As a tradition we usually get all fancied up and go out somewhere nice for brunch. This year we did just that at a great French restaurant not too far from our house. We dined on strawberry crepes, croissants with fancy spreads, blue crab cake omelets, French toast and smoked salmon with goat cheese. But I have to say, hands down, my favorite part of the meal was my Virgin Mary cocktail.

After the meal Mother Nature, as if on cue, opened up the clouds to a light, peaceful rain. The kids napped and I sipped a cup of coffee while I conversed with Brian and caught up on some television shows.
Hey, here's my first belly shot with this pregnancy. I thought it would be a good addition to a Mother's Day post. I bet I'm bigger than you thought, aren't I? They tell me your third pops out a lot quicker so I'm sticking with that excuse.

How was your Mother's Day? I hope it was grand and I hope, above all, I hope you were loved.
