Happy Mother's Day

This Mother's day was a little bit different. Saturday afternoon I had worked long and hard on a drawing for my mom and I was really looking forward to giving it to her Sunday morning with breakfast in bed.

But when I woke up Sunday morning, I found no mom! It turned out that one of my siblings decided to outdo me for Mother's day...and the hospital got to serve mom breakfast in bed instead.

Meet Dallin Kirk Nielson


I have to give him props...it was a pretty awesome Mother's Day gift! Even a wonderful Grand-mother's Day gift!
I was so excited for his early arrival, that I decided to overlook the fact that he made me look bad on Mother's day. :)

I hurried to get Aubri and myself all spiffied up and off to see the little guy.



He is ADORABLE! All 5 lbs 14oz of him.

Aubri was excited until we got there and it occurred to her that I may give all my attention to him instead of her now.

I assured her this would not be the case and that we could enjoy him together!
I'm so happy to have this new addition to our family!
Happy Mother's Day, Mom!
