    That's lovely 3LM! Sounds like a great day.

    Mine started out crummy but has been getting better... my sleep in was interrupted by DH getting a call out at 7.10am No sleep in, no breakfast in bed, had to get the two kids ready for church myself... but DH got home and it got better. We had to go to church in the morning as our friend's DD was getting baptised so that was all a little crazy, but then we had a lovely lunch where DH ran around after the kids and I got to chill a bit. At home now, DS sleeping, DD resting on the couch and DH tells me he'll do my bacon and eggs that I missed this morning for dinner instead

    Long as someone else cooks it, I don't care!

    =) Yay for everyone having great days!

    I got a text msg at midnight (as DH is at home and I am at my parents) saying 'happy mothers day'. Then I got a phone call at 730 this morning (crazy man thought I would be awake...*shakes head*) but he said happy mothers day, and said you are already a mummy your baby just isn't out yet. (awww) and then he goes, just think about how awesome next year will be when the little one will be wobbling in with your burnt toast and cold tea =) (awww x2). Then he goes, we are going to burn it on purpose cause that shows we really do love you (awww x3 and explosive overdose of the warm and fuzzies). I love my DH =)

    Sounds fab

    Mine was pretty great. DD1 was at her dad's overnight so I slept in while DP got up with DD2 (at 5:30ish). Got up and got ready to go pick up DD1 who had made me a card. We then went to my parents where my dad and DP cooked us (my mum and me) breaky on the BBQ. Spent the morning hanging out with them. DP then took DD1 and DD2 to the park on his own (many 'are you sure?'s from me haha) so I had a nice long shower ALONE then just enjoyed some quiet time before they got back. DP and DD1 then made scones (my favourite) with lots of whipped cream and strawberry jam!

    I was another that had a great day.

    Got a sleep in until about 8.30am, when DD popped int o see if I was awake so she could me my presents.
    Got a couple a bought presents and some homemade ones from Kinder & Creche from DD plus a lovely card with a personal message in it from DD.
    DH then cooked us all breakfast - full cooked breakfast of bacon, eggs, tomato, mushrooms, hashbrown and toast - yum!
    We all then went out for lunch with my mum, sister & her DH, my brother and his fiance and my grandmother then went back to my mums for coffee and cake. After being so full of food, I crashed on the couch for a nana nap and have just hopped on to the PC.
    DH is taking care of dinner and I'll have a shower soon and put my pjs on

    My Dh has forgotten. I guess I can't blame him as he has been in Scotland for his Dad's funeral until late Friday night and he's exhausted poor thing. I'm not mad at him and I haven't said anything cause I know he'll feel awful and I don't want to make him feel bad but I kinda feel like I wanna cry a little, especially hearing about my friends days on fb etc.

    Mine was better this year compared to last year's debacle!

    I got to sleep in (after dd1 woke dd2 and made her cry) then dd1 made me pancakes for breakfast in bed. I got cards and a bookmark from dd2 and a pipe cleaner necklace that dd1 made. The girls also gave me new winter pj's and a funky shower cap, both of which I needed!

    Then we drove to ballarat and had lunch with my mum and then went out to see all the activities for heritage week ther which was fun. So a nice day (if I ignore the girls fighting, dd2 spilling her dinner all over the floor and dd1 waking dd2 at 5:30am )
