Today was my first official Mother’s Day. I was pregnant last year which kind of counted but not quite. This year I actually got to feel like a real mother. Joseph and Kira got me the sweetest gold locket for a present. I came home from work and found Kira with it round her neck. So beautiful! I also got 4 new bottles of wine to add to my wine “cellar” collection.
This Thursday night Joseph, Kira and I are headed to Chicago for a couple of days. This will be Kira’s first family vacation. We’re headed down for a 2-day playdate with some fellow moms from around the country that I’ve known for the past year and a half. Weather permitting, we’ll go to the zoo, walk on the beach – and Joseph will spend his time chilling in our fancy hotel room. I think it will be really fun.
Not really any earth-shattering pictures of Kira for this update, but here’s a couple…
