Brunch/Mother's Day/Dance Recital, Oh my!

This is me and my bambino after her dance recital! She did fabulously and I was SOOO proud of her! This was her third recital and this was the first time she actually danced. The other times she had too much stage fright and cried or ran off both times. SOO happy!
This is my bub (on the right) and her BFF. They were posing for the BFF's parents so that's why they're not looking at the camera. I just think Cadence looks so happy here!
This is just Cadence all by herself, looking so super adorable! :) Her dance was to a song from A Bug's Life so she is a bug I guess! I had her wings on upside down at this point but I did flip them over before her dance started.

And the grand finale :) This is the new wall grouping as of Friday!! At about 3:30 at work on Friday I see this little head walk by my work window that looked a LOT like my kiddo! Suddenly I realize it IS my kiddo and she's looking ADORABLE! Closely following her is my husband. Oh and the kid was carrying flowers that she had picked from the florist herself, for me!!

Turns out the hubby took C out of school after lunch and took her to a hair appt and got her hair french braided. Then he had an appt at the Picture People and got these pictures taken and framed for me for my gift!!! OMG is she the most adorable thing you've ever seen?! Answer: YES! My sole gripe is that she needed a haircut and I'm taking her this week even... so her bangs are long! I will definitly live. :) What a great gift huh!? I'm going to have to try and top him on that for Father's Day... bring on the ideas now!

This morning we went to brunch with the inlaws and I think I did well. I got one plate of food (not heaped) and ate half of it in the amount of time it took everyone else to eat two heaped plates. I got one scoop of vanilla ice cream and ate about 1/4 of it. I'm happy about that, really!!

Happy Mother's Day to all my fellow Mommies out there!! :)

Tomorrow is one month from when I started my pre-op diet!! :)
