M-O-M & Mini Carts

Kate and I flew back into town from Maryland yesterday.  I took Monday off and we spent the day getting organized from our trip and running a few errands.  One of these errands was a stop at Trader Joe's.  When we walked in, we saw pint sized carts for pint sized people and our pint sized Kate just had to push one!

Crackers?  Yes, please!

Girlfriend is on a mission!

She's a pro!  All grocery stores should have these!

She was super excited to help and we diligently picked out things that we needed that we could put in her cart.  She LOVED this!  And it was so much fun to see how excited she was!  I love spending these special days together!

On another note, as the post title suggests, last Mother's Day, Brian presented me with this gem and framed it:

2014.

This Mother's Day, I received an updated one and fell even more in love with it:

2015.

I mentioned I see a tradition budding and he just gave me a little smirk as if to leave me with a maybe, maybe not answer.  So Brian.  It's crazy to see how much Kate has grown in one year.  It's also crazy to think that next Mother's Day there will be two little girlies that call me Mama.

This thought just melts my heart and I seriously hope the tradition continues.

(Side note: To this day I have no clue where Brian keeps these wooden letters.  He has hidden them in our house somewhere and busts them out once a year...)
