Today was such an amazing day for me. Not only was it our 1 year anniversary but I also got to experience my first mother’s day. I felt like a princess, completely pampered all day. Today started off with my husband bringing me breakfast in bed, which was delicious. Then we got up and started to get ready for church. At church I felt extra special because there was a time at the end of the mass when the priest asked if all the mothers would stand up. I have to admit at first I was like well I am not a mommy yet, but the more I thought about it, I am a mommy. Mommies take care of their babies and that is exactly what I am doing, the only difference is I do not get to hold my lil man yet. It was a special moment that I was able to share with my mommy. After church I headed over to my parent’s house where I was greeted with gifts and a mother’s day card. The next thing on the list was to get a sexy new dress for tonight’s dinner. Now it is hard to feel sexy when you are prego, but after going to pretty much every store I settled with a black little number. It is difficult you want everything to fit and look good like it has in the past, but the sad truth is your body is changing and you just have to go with it.
When I arrived back at home I was greeted with some beautiful red roses, but not only where their roses for me but also for my mom and Ben’s mom as well, I have the best husband he really knows how to make all of the women in his life feel special.
Time to get ready for tonight….bbs
So tonight has come and went and it was an amazing one. The evening started off with dinner at The Capital Grille in Scottsdale and valet parking, for a prego women this is a major plus. Then when we arrived at our seat there was rose pedals, confetti, and a card waiting, it look very romantic. I think what really tipped the table off was these massive wine glasses, which of course we could not drink out of but they were still get for décor. Do you know what the best thing is about going to fancy place for dinner? They treat you so well, I actually got escorted to the bathroom, at first I was like what oh heck why not. Unfortunately Ben did not get escorted; I think it may have been a thing for females only. After we ordered dinner, we shared our cards we got for one another. I had a feeling I would get 2 so I made sure to get Ben an extra one as well, followed by the cards our parents had given to us for our anniversary. My mommy card was adorable, he wrote if as if it was from him, our little boy, and Slater as well. (Our other little boy) My favorite card was my anniversary card, it was not your typical mushy card, but it perfectly mapped out the first night we met. I will try to include a photo, so everyone can see. Of course my cards however were very mushy, I just can’t have it any other way! 
Dinner was amazing we started off with a virgin daiquiri and a blue moon/amber for him. Then both of us had salads, 10oz sirloin steaks (no joke), and strawberry sorbet for dessert. Now since it was our anniversary we were also given a champagne/cider toast and a cheesecake with berries. Oh my gosh we were stuffed we took enough food home with us to eat tomorrow including our cheesecake. They really treated us well, I would definitely suggest it to anyone, but be pre warned, the food is expensive but definitely worth it for a celebration; you only get to have one first year anniversary.
Ben I just want you to know that I love you with all of my heart and I could have not ask for anything more in a husband. You have made all of my dreams come true and you truly are one of a kind. Here’s too many more anniversaries to come!
