Mother's Day 2014

Although my baby rocking days are almost over, I decided I really wanted a rocking chair for Mother's Day, this year.  Mia and Ava never needed to be rocked to sleep, so I am glad we didn't spend money on one of those fancy glider/ottoman contraptions.  However, as Eliana grows in size, rocking her in my arms is getting more difficult and some sort of chair would be helpful.  Also, I've realized I don't want this part of my motherhood journey to end without actually rocking a baby to sleep in a rocking chair.  Thankfully, I woke up to this on Sunday:






We spent most of the morning relaxing and putting my new rocking chair to good use.  In the afternoon, Mate stayed home while Eliana napped and the older girls and I went to see their first movie at a theater.  I think they were interested in just about everything except the actual movie. They lasted for about 45 minutes before calling it quits, which I was fine with.  We won't be trying that again anytime soon, but it was enjoyable, nonetheless. 
Mia wasn't so concerned with my need to capture their first movie theater experience

Sharing a seat because that's what twins do
Some take-out for dinner rounded out my fourth Mother's Day.  As always, I'm thankful, thankful, thankful for the three ladies that gave me my favorite title.
