We just got back an hour ago from dropping my mom off at the airport. It always feels like she hasn't stayed long enough, which I guess is a good thing. We had a great weekend, including coffee out a couple of times, a trip to the Spectrum for Nate to go in the fountains and ride the carousel (a special treat), In-n-Out and a shopping trip (with the kids, who behaved very well), a good Easter dinner at our house, and a dinner/movie out for Jon and me. We took Nate and Lucy to therapy on Monday, and Mama got to see the beginning part of Group, where Nate sings songs with the other kids (it is SO cute) before they split off into smaller groups.
Since it's such a bummer to have my mom gone, it's really nice to have something out of the ordinary to look forward to: Jon and I are going on our church's second annual couples retreat this Friday-Sunday while Nate and Lucy stay with Jon's parents. It's in Big Bear, so Jon plans on going snowboarding, and I plan on spending some nice time reading, maybe scrapbooking, and spending lots of non-snowboarding time with Jon. :)
P.S. All of the pictures on my blog are always "clickable"--click on one and you will see it full size.

Great shots!! Wish they were a little bigger. :) My mom is only 45 minutes away now, but I will soon be experiencing the occasional visit, so I will know how you feel. Looks and sounds like you all had a wonderful time! Have fun at the retreat! Sounds like fun!

Have tons of fun at the retreat. You should go snowboarding, you might love it!!! You could always ski too, that's easier to pic up, whatever you do kid free is awesome!
Hey Katie, I'm so glad your mom was able to come out for a visit--how fun! It's so cool to hear Nate's doing so well--what a big step to be done with paci (sometimes harder for us than them :)
