Mama Day.

Today is Mama day! Since Marco can't say "happy" or "mother," Jeff came up with this name for it so that Marco could say it. It sounds like this, "Mama, daaaa-ay." You're just going to have to trust me, it's irresistible.

It was a very, very great day - think coffee, sourdough waffles, shopping, a pitcher of beer with lunch (don't worry I shared) and a nap on my fabulous deck. Here was my gift. Fab right?
And this is the miniature lime tree that we bought from our next door neighbor's yard sale for $2. Uh, awesome? These mini limes are begging for coronitas and a summer day, but I digress.

In other news, it looks like Marco is transitioning to a one-nap day. Two days in a row he accomplished it successfully with very little crankiness. He's so grown up!

We continue to marvel at his voracious, adventurous appetite, the sheer volume alone keeps our jaws dropped. I think I'll take a week and blog everything he eats. It's insane. And sometimes... not pretty.

Generally speaking I can skip the flashback photos, but celebrating Mother's Day has reminded me how far we've come! (And how far to go until Marco treats for Mother's Day lunch.) So here are this year's photos juxtaposed with last. Please note: Marco's hat says "I love mommy." I'm totally getting this kid beat up.
