Mother's Day

 I know everyday is Mother's Day, but when the Calendar event that happens in May for all of us MOMS, it just makes me feel....well..special!!! I made sure to hint to Dante that Mother's day is coming up and asking him questions what does he want to do for me or what does he want to make me? I love to find out what that little 3 year old is thinking. He told me he wanted to make me a card with a heart on it and that he wanted to make me Dinosaur Chicken. Okay if that isn't the sweetest and thoughtful idea then I don't know what is. I mean Dinosaur chicken??? That's his favorite!!! I definitely feel special now!! 

Mother's Day came around and we decided to do something fun for all of us! We went to Long Beach's Aquarium of the Pacific and had lunch there. Dante did make me a special card and yes it did have a heart on it :) We had a blast and it was a perfect day with my boys!

Here are recent pictures of my boys that any mom would adore. Especially THIS ONE!!! 

Happy Mother's Day!!

This picture is priceless. Dante trying to hug his brother, while Devan is crying cause he doesn't want to be touched. haha

This smile and his soft baby skin is my fav!

I love when the boys can play together and have fun!

Another special moment to share is this heart eraser that he gives me a few times a day. It's a heart that Dante tells me, "it's for you mom and I love you." I purposely place it where I last have been and I know he can find it to give it to me again throughout the day. I love it!

I heart my boys!
