Mother's Day

Mother's Day weekend was jam packed with family functions from BBQs to soccer games. I couldn't ask for a better weekend.


Waking up Mother's Day morning and cuddling with both girls...doesn't get any better than that! :)


Jeremy and the girls bought me a double seater jogging stroller. Bye Bye baby weight!


More soccer....each game we are so impressed at how much better Abbie gets, not only skill-wise but the basic concept of the game.








One of the reasons Abbie loved soccer so much was because she got to do it with her friend Norah...
