This year, I was able to celebrate my first year as being a mom! Although we weren't able to spend the day with either of our moms, I was so lucky to have Bentley and Brady spoiling me all day! We went to church in the morning. I taught the young women and made the girls some yummy cookies to enjoy while Brady watched Bentley!

Once we got home, this is what our day looked like :)


 Brady went all out! He surprised me with flowers and this sweet little note "from" Bentley! I just about died.







Bentley wasn't too sure about the flower to begin with....


I had so many people ask me where I had gotten my necklace! It was a gift I had received from my Aunt who owns her own hand stamping company. She makes the cutest jewelry you have ever seen! You can visit her website here: 







What, you don't like the taste of flowers too!?! Nom Nom! ;)







Getting good pictures of this little dude is getting harder and harder! He's getting very busy and doesn't want to sit still at all! But I guess I can't blame him right!?
He's {all} boy!

 Here he comes!


It was such a perfect day! I'm so lucky to have such sweet boys. After we played around for a bit, we went to Hermosa Beach for a little stroll along the boardwalk. I hadn't been back there since I was pregnant with Bentley in {this} post. I think it will most definitely be a regular now :)
It was heaven!



Is this not the prettiest beach house you've ever seen? 
I am so love with it! Future beach house? Check!




It was the perfect way to end my first Mother's Day :)

  5. What beautiful pictures, totally scrapbookable! I love the flowers and note too, so sweet! As for taking pictures, it will get harder and harder. Grant says cheese now, but won't look at the camera while saying it, or he just looks crazy. All boy, is right! FYI, you look gorgeous :)
