derby, dedication and mothers day

We had a busy weekend; Kentucky Derby, Baby Dedication at A10 and Mother’s Day. Jay and Charlotte, ready for the Kentucky Derby on Saturday.  Charlotte sporting her handmade derby hat.  This is a great reversible bonnet pattern from a blog I read, Made by Rae.

Part of my wonderful breakfast for mother’s day.  Yummy mom pancakes and some surprises from Jay including Charlotte in her I heart mommy onesie.

 

We had baby dedication at A10, Charlotte slept like a champ through the whole service including when she was up on stage.  I was very thankful that we made it through the service with some grace in front of the whole church!  Her verse that she was dedicated with was: Pslam 139:14 

I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well.

After church we went to lunch at one of my favorite restaurants, Sette. It was fantastic, we sat outside, it was a gorgeous day and Charlotte slept the whole time!

I also had my first glass of wine in over a year...

followed by fantastic fried mozzarella and a greek salad with salmon that I dug into before I took a picture!

At lunch, Charlotte gave me her mother’s day present.  I think she did really well, but I am pretty sure Jay helped her pick it out!

It was a great first mother’s day, full of surprises and time spent with my two favorite people!  Thanks Jay for such a memorable day!
