My Mom

Well I had a rough night last night and the night before. Tuesday night, Mom thought it was because I was frustrated with Brynn but I was just bummed that she was heading back to Ohio yesterday. It's been REALLY nice having her here and I really didn't want her to leave. Neither did Chad. She's been great with Brynn... giving us lots of tips and ideas on what to do... but only when we asked. (Or if she could tell that we were completely stressed out...) THAT was nice. It was also really nice on those nights where Brynn just wouldn't go to sleep and Chad and I were getting stressed, she would take her and be able to calm her down for us.

We got a bunch of home cooking too... She made two batches of chocolate chip cookies and four batches of peanut butter cookies plus a bunch of other stuff - the peanut butter cookies were his favorite - that's why she made so many of them!!

For a while, Mom has been talking about getting a tattoo for Brynn. She kept putting it off and putting it off... I kept telling her a wuss because she hadn't done it yet!! Well, she finally did it yesterday!! Chad has a friend through his VW club who is a tattoo artist and he gave Mom a deal!! (It's a lot more clear now than what it was when we took these pictures...)

Here it is, along with a few other pictures from her visit!!









Thanks for everything Mom - there's no way that we could have made it through the last two and a half weeks without you!! Love you!!
