On Saturday, Jillian is big time into "helping" Mommy. She loves acting like Cinderella so I put that girl to work.
Here she is sweeping

and helping with the laundry.

Then Sunday morning I woke up to two lovely cards - one from Bryan and one from the kids...(I am seriously so in love with the Children's Pl@ce and their matching boy/girl jammies. LOVE them!!!)

Everybody got showered so we could go to church. I took this picture so you could see how my 3 month old son is almost as big as my 2 year old daughter. Geez!!!!

Then we got ready for church.....and let me let you in on a little secret. Yesterday was actually very hard. The kids were NOT cooperating. Both of them did not sleep well Saturday night and they both woke up with snotty noses. Jillian was being Sassy with a capital S and Rocco was unusually cry-ey. So it made getting ready for church excruitatingly painful. However, here are the good shots.
Me and Jillian Avery

Me and Rocco Harrison

This is Jillian throwing her mini-tantrum. "She doesn't want to sit next to Rocco." "She doesn't want to smile." You get the picture.

After she received some bribery aka M&Ms, all smiles again but now Rocco would not smile. Ahhhh!!!! (p.s. before the post is done - I have already had several people ask about their matching outfits and I got them through a catalog called CWDKids.)

So then Rocco started crying and he is not interested in M&Ms, so I gave him what he needed......and
And finally, the best it was going to get yesterday. Cheesy smile from Jillian? Check. Deer in the headlights look from Rocco? Check. Gotta love them!!!!

Finally, thank you to the big B for taking allllllll of these photos and doing his darnedest to get these kiddos to smile. Thanks love.

Yes, I agree that Mother's Day is really about the Grandmothers. I actually had my camera at my Mom's house with me, but didn't see any "Kodak" moments so it was never taken out of the bag. {frown} Maybe next year...your pictures might not be perfect, but they are very CUTE!
