Mommy Monday

Today was the end of a very busy weekend and the start of a very busy week.  This past Saturday I had the pleasure and privilege to not only attend but also to teach an elective at the Harvest Bible Chapel Spring Lake Women's Conference.  The conference focused on placing Jesus FIRST in all areas of our lives.  Because Richard works on Saturdays, we needed a place of Cooper to stay for the day.  We decided to ask Uncle Bob, Aunt Christy, Mady, and Andrew.  Andrew had a football game and Cooper got to be his #1 fan...and his team WON.  Here is a picture from the after "party" :)

I worked today (my normal day off) because tomorrow my mom aka Grandma Teresa comes to town.  We are all meeting in Grand Rapids to get a gift for Uncle Chris and Aunt Ashley's baby in the tummy, Parker.  It's no secret, we are all going together to get their crib from Babies R Us.  The shower is technically on Thursday, but there is really no sense in making two trips to GR, right?  So my mom comes in tomorrow and tomorrow night we are blessed to host some dear friends who trusted the Lord's leading 2-years ago now and became "missionaries" in England, the Lothamer Family.  We will be joined along with them by some other supporters from Harvest Spring Lake.  Then Wednesday is baby shower prep.  Thursday baby shower.  Friday, Saturday, Sunday - Grandma time sure to include good food and fun times.  But all in all very busy.  So tonight, we just hung out and let Cooper play for the first time in his Exersaucer...thanks to the Harvest Ladies for this great gift...
