Mother's Day was very hectic at our house. I woke up early and made myself a big cuppa coffee and baked steel cut oats with blueberries and maple syrup--a special treat. DH and dd got up shortly after that. DH tried to get our 2yo dd to say "Happy Mother's Day," instead she went around singing "Happy mommy! Happy mommy!"--which made me happy

For some reason, I got the urge to have some birdhouses in our backyard, so that's what we did. We went to Lowe's to buy some cedar and paint and spent the weekend building bird houses. We made a slew of them and gave them as gifts to our moms, grandmothers, and great grandmother as well.

It was a nice weekend. I can't complain.
