My First Mother's Day...

WOW! I love being a mom!!! Yesterday was my first Mother's Day, and probably one of the best days ever...Elias got dedicated yesterday! I can't express how much this meant for me. Every year so many babies would stand up before the church and be dedicated with their parents, and all I could ever think was, I CAN'T WAIT until I have MY OWN baby to dedicate. It was so fun, and of course, Elias had to be the center of attention and do his "loud talking" while we were on stage....It was cute though. After church we went to the park with the family and had some yummy burgers my hubby made- I am still full!!! I am blessed to have such a beautiful family. The life verse that we chose for Elias that was shared during his dedication is Psalm 9:1-2
"¹I will give thanks to the LORD with all my heart;
I will tell of all Your wonders.
²I will be glad and exult in You;
I will sing praise to Your name, O Most High."

This is our prayer for our son, that he would Praise His name and tell of His wonders ALWAYS!!!

Elias had his follow-up appointment yesterday with his pediatrician and no more ear infections, yay! His fontanel has been raised the past few days but all we can do is wait until his MRI is done. All considering, he has been a very happy, talkative baby! He is getting to big, we "baby proofed" the house today because it will be a matter a time before Elias is crawling, everywhere!!! =)
Yesterday, Mathew and I were able to finally take time for ourselves and went on a date to watch the Rays SMASH Boston! =) It was fun, and Mathew and I got some much needed alone time. I am so thankful to be married to my best friend!
