Great Day!

Yesterday was a great day! My friend Robin brought her new baby, Maddie, over to the house for a nice visit! Then, my aunt Gege and Amanda called and invited us to go to Sunshine Valley Farms to buy some awesome (very large and sweet) blueberries and grab some lunch at their tearoom. Wonderful idea, great conversation and company, and beautiful scenery! It is always quite the ordeal to get everything ready to leave the house, including pumping one last time, but this time it was well worth it! It just feels fantastic to be out and about with people you care about and not be cooped up in the house! Tanner was great and that sure helps. He basically slept in GeGe or Amanda's arms and didn't fuss much at all!

The moment a child is born, the mother is also born. She never existed before. The woman existed, but the mother, never. A mother is something absolutely new. ~Rajneesh

When you are a mother, you are never really alone in your thoughts. A mother always has to think twice, once for herself and once for her child. ~Sophia Loren
