A day to remember???

What a great way to start the day.....all the cherubs rushing into Mummy's room shouting "Happy Mother's Day!" and giving me lots of kisses and cuddles. Then they all gave me the presents they had made, bought from the schools Mother's day stall and the gifts they had chosen with Daddy, into the bed with me. Matthew had carefully chosen a water bottle for me that had 'World's Best Mum' written on it from the schools stall with a beautiful hand made card. Benjamin selected a beautiful necklace from the stall and also a very thoughtful and colorful hand made card, Annie and Lucy gave me a card that they had both written their names in (Lucy attempted to write her name and Annie corrected it!) Daddy and the kids also gave me some silicone baking ware (which is fantastic) and an 'Apple slinky machine' because Benjamin said that Mummy really needs one so I could give him apple slinky's for lunch!

After such a lovely time in bed it was time for breakfast. While we were sitting down to breakfast, Daddy was very busy getting our picnic lunch organised. He did everything. From the picnic basket to the chopping of wood for a BBQ lunch to the organising of getting the kids in the car. Then off we set for Mt Glorious. Noonie (who had slept over so she could be with us for the whole of mother's day) decided to read to the kids in the car while we were weaving and winding along the Mailman's Track. This idea in the end turned out to be a wrong one! Once we started to ascend Mt Glorious, Lucy started to look pale, so as Mummy was looking for something for Lucy to hold in case she threw up, BJ said "Mummy I don't ....." and then proceeded to throw up which in turn immediately made Lucy throw up. BJ threw up all over the floor in the back back of the car and Lucy threw up all over herself and her car seat. Daddy pulled over as best as he could on the side of the road but then had to move and find a more safer option up the mountain a little further.

Daddy and Noonie worked very hard to clean up the mess as best as they could with the baby wipes that were in the car and the giant plastic bags left in the car from camping! Mummy just watched over the kids as the smell did not sit well with me. Seeing as Lucy had to take off her clothes and Mummy not having a spare pair in the car for her it was time to head home. Therefore we enjoyed a BBQ lunch at home!

finally we all got to have some lunch

And that was Mother's Day!
