For Mother's Day, my wonderful husband gave me surprise sweets from Lovely Bake Shop and a sweeter card! Obviously, the best gift on this holiday was a precious baby seven months ago.
Despite working an overnight shift the night before and also being on call (making for a total 18 hours at the hospital before Mother's Day), he also folded the laundry and changed diapers while I cat-napped. Max also said Happy Mama's Day to me, too, by waking up at 4:30 am, and later, having a major poop explosion while sitting on me. Poop everywhere. It was a hot mess, but I didn't care that much. That's how I know I'm really a mother :)
We went to an early dinner (we're talking "Early Bird" early) at an Argentinian restaurant called Folklore in Wicker Park, and enjoyed the outdoor patio in positively glorious weather! Max got to people-watch on Division Street, and I got to have a big steak and a few sips of mojito!
My two favorite men . . .
Max looks like a toddler in those pictures!
