Mother's Day 2009

I had a fabulous Mother's Day and was pampered by both CK and Sofia. I knew it was going to be a good day when I got to sleep in until 830! Then, once I came out of our bedroom Sofia got a huge smile on her face, jumped up and down and exclaimed "Donuts!!!" instead of the usual "Mommy." CK then explained that he asked Sofia what they should make Mommy for breakfast, and she exclaimed "donuts". So, they went off to Krispy Kreme and bought an assortment. Then, CK told Sofia that she couldn't eat donuts until Mommy woke up.....

After Meeting we had a few hours before brunch at the Gaylord Texan Resort, so we grabbed a cup of Starbucks and headed to a nearby park to watch the ducks and let Sofia play on the slide. Brunch at the Gaylord Texan Resort was amazing! The buffet was one of the best I've ever been to, and had plenty of wonderful options (including sushi!!). One of the best parts was the three piece band - not only did they play lovely music, but Sofia was completely transfixed! She spent most of her meal staring at the band and moving to the music.

After brunch, we headed back home and relaxed a little bit before CK headed off on a bike ride and Sofia and I went for a run. It was a wonderful day!!

Telling Sofia something.....she's thinking it over
