I slept in a bit.
I had coffee brought to me and breakfast made for me.
I did a load of laundry and some dishes.
I laid with the toddler while she fell asleep for her nap.
I sat in the church cry room for a bit with the same squirmy, loud (but still cute) little girl.
My husband snored on the bed next to me while I typed this.
I wore some new, pretty clothes that I bought for myself on Saturday.
I hollered a couple of times at the people I love that are shorter than me.
{what? I’m not perfect… far from it actually…}
I took a walk around the neighborhood and played with the kids outside.
I watched some HGTV.
I DID NOT cook. 
I accepted flowers and homemade cards and free mimosas at lunch.
I thought about what the week ahead holds, with one child’s birthday just a couple of days away…
I wished other Mothers I know “Happy Mother’s Day”.
So, what did you do on Mother’s Day?
Link up your Mother’s Day posts or any other post you like for
“Miss Elaine-ous Monday“!
Do you have a post that meant a lot to you but wasn’t read by as many folks as you’d hoped? Or one that has great pictures and you want more people to see them? Or do you just have one that you really want to share!?
I’ll also choose a random post from those who link up to feature on The Miss Elaine-ous Life Facebook page (please “Like” if you have not already) so even more folks will see a new post every week! Grab the button and link up! And please visit some of the other linkers as well…
Also linking up with Mommy & Me Monday!
It’s a great picture!
And, yeah, I did a lot of that, too (more like 4 loads of laundry and cleaned the kitchen floor), but I didn’t cook, either…and I went to Target by myself!
A great day and love the photo!
I had some much needed time with my toddler, while my mother-in-law had much craved time with the baby. Win-win, with no one getting jealous and no tantrums (kids and adults alike). All in all, a good day.
Thanks for hosting! Please visit!
Sounds like you had a great day and that photo is just awesome!
Spent lots of time with the family, especially my momma this weekend. It was great, and MUCH needed. 
I didn’t cook either but had to do some dishes. Had a breakdown in the middle of the day. It was a good day to let my emotions out but other than that it was good day!
What a great picture!!
I enjoyed breakfast, ran around trying to get ready, had “dinner” at my parent’s house, did some more laundry when we got home, and ruined a load of clothes by leaving a tube of chapstick in the pocket of a pair of pants. It was not a stellar end to my mother’s day.
Sounds like a great day..especially the not cooking part…I didn’t either. : )
Just happened upon your blog through Mommy & Me Mondays. Mother’s Day is always a bitter sweet day for me, I can’t help but have the attitude ‘I don’t have to do that, it’s Monther’s Day!’ and end up getting upset because I have to change diapers and clean & do laundry still! It was one of the better ones though; ate way too many donuts, actually took a nap, and only prepared one meal! Glad you had a great one, Happy Monday!
Sounds a lot like my day, too! You look lovely!
That’s a beautiful picture and mimosas on Mother’s Day are the way to go.
I took a two hour nap. And that was after sleeping in. It was glorious.
That picture is a keeper!!!
I didn’t cook either! We had a cook-out at my parents. Hubs stayed at home (recovering from a surgery) but otherwise still a good day, I just enjoyed the fact this is my first mother’s day! You have a gorgeous family!
That is a gorgeous picture! And it sounds like a good Mother’s Day to me!
I did my first mud run on Saturday- woot woot!!!! You look beautiful in the above picture, Elaine!
I did some laundry and dishes too, lol. Sounds like you had a great mothers day.
That sounds like a great day! Happy Mother’s Day Elaine!
And that photo is perfect. G is adorable with his little frown – he’s just keeping it real for you
Happy Mother’s Day!
Free mimosas? I need to do some research before next Mother’s Day.
I had a FANTASTIC day, too. Love the shot of you four.
What a wonderful picture of you and the kids! I love it!! Sounds like a really awesome day to me. I love that you got free mimosas.
Oh if our Internet is working good- which is questionable-I plan on doing my mothers day post on Wednesday so will link up
And yes, my picture with my kids is about 2/3 at best.
