In the past couple of days, I've been able to catch May making some pretty cute faces. Here are some:
"It wasn't me...hehe."
(Blowing out her lips)
"Whatever, Mom."
Her Auntie says she's super cute. I'll have to agree :-)
I had the wonderful opportunity to try Sambazon Fruit Juices and Smoothies through Moms Meet. I decided to try the juices because I am looking for more healthy alternatives. If you aren't familiar with Sambazon:

- Blended Breakfast: This is the first beverage to combine whole fruit with ancient grains (like quinoa and amaranth), chia, and Organic/Non-GMO verified soymilk for a smoothie that sustains and nourishes. This delicious strawberry-banana blend is also a good source of fiber (7g per bottle).
I was able to find the products at my local grocery store and at Wegmans. Unfortunately there was not a wide selection available so I got the products below:
I was really excited to try the Supergreens smoothie. According the Sambazon, the smoothie includes "a vitality boosting Amazing Grass SupergreensTM delivers 25x the powerful green phytonutrients of wheat grass and over 120 açaà berries per bottle delivery powerful antioxidants and healthy omegas." It also "provides a good source of fiber and delivers three servings of fruits and veggies." I found that the Supergreens smoothie was very tasty and I felt full after drinking the smoothie. I also felt refreshed. The Acai smoothies were good as well. Which smoothies are you looking to try?

Friday night, Rex, May and I headed to South Jersey. My sister and best friend Kate's wedding was that Saturday in New Hope, PA. I've been friend's with Kate since the first grade and we've been calling each other sisters since I can remember. I've been recently calling her my twin and she's also May's godmother.
Before the wedding Kate and I reminisced on the times we shared going to the Cubby Hole in Moorestown, NJ and how through both of our life's journeys, we'll always be friends. I was so honored to be her Maid of Honor. Kate looked absolutely beautiful and the wedding was an amazing event. Rex and I really had a great time. Her now husband, Joey is such as perfect match for her. I'm so happy for them. Congrats girl and welcome to the married life!!!!

Here are a few pictures from Mother's Day yesterday. We went out to eat for dinner after Rex got off work. Earlier in the day Rex gave me some chocolate and a nice vase of flowers. It was a great day. May is also five months old today :-)
A nap before going out.
Looking at the menu.
Happy Mother's Day 2013
Just wanted to with a Happy Mother's Day to all the moms and moms-to-be out there!!! You are appreciated.
It's so wonderful being a mom. May will be five months tomorrow. She's growing up so fast. Rex and I are so thankful and feel so blessed every day.
Four Generations
Oh hey!
Yesterday, we took advantage of Rex's and my day off and walked around two malls nearby. It was nice to just get out of the house, even though the weather was quite gloomy.
We took the stroller and the baby carrier. Rex more wanted the carrier while I was more for the stroller. The carrier won and May and Rex had so much fun walking around the mall. We put May facing out in the carrier. She was looking at everything and smiling and laughing. She loves being on the move too. When Rex sat down she started screaming. She's been screaming more lately. Not crying but screaming. We think she's more discovering her voice.
We'll be taking her out more with the warmer weather. Next, we'll probably take her for a walk at the Mall in DC.
