HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY!!!!!

I want to honor both of our moms in this post and wish them a Happy Mother's Day! 

Jordan and I are beyond blessed to have had moms who gave so much of themselves to make us better people. Our moms are loving, caring, selfless, encouraging and supportive through all seasons of life. Even when no one seems to understand you our moms know just the words to help build us up and make us stronger people. We have been blessed to be able to learn from both moms in these few years together and are excited for all they will pour into their first grandchild! They are so special to us and we love and celebrate them everyday, but are glad to make them stand out more today! I'm excited for the journey of learning to give my all to our sweet baby boy just like I see our moms give to us. Thank you Father in Heaven for years of love and fun with these women. Bless them beyond measure and may their hearts be filled with love today! 

WE LOVE YOU MOM!!!!

side note: I'd like to wish all my NEW mom friends a wonderful, Happy 1st Mother's Day! Enjoy this day with your little one and family :) 

Les Miserable

Yesterday, my parents along with Bob and Pat came up to visit and go see the show Les Miserable at the Walton Art Center. I got to show Bob and Pat our home, we ate a yummy lunch at Hog Haus and then popped over to the show. It was a wonderful afternoon with family!!!

Therapy Baby Shower

My sweet coworkers had a shower for me at work this past week and we got a great assortment of goodies! I work with such a great group of people and am so thankful for their daily help and all the fun they bring to life!

Fayetteville Baby Shower!!!

Last Sunday I was able to celebrate Baby Cooper at the Shadrach home! Mrs. Shad, Marietta, Stephanie Peters and Kara Garen threw us a shower up here with our dear friends! The Shad Pad is really special to Jordan and I, not just because we love this family, but also we met at their home, had our wedding shower there too, and many fun memories with this family there! 

Marietta's adorable burlap marker board!

The hostess with the mostest, I've learned so much from this woman and am so grateful for all her love and support to us! 

Marietta and Stephanie

How sweet are these little booties :)

My amazing momma who I got to introduce to so many special people to me in Fayetteville! I hope to be half the mom she was to Luke and I, just an amazing woman!

Amanda and Elizabeth, two girls from our community group, beyond blessed by all the women in this group and such great friends we have made in Fayetteville. 

Mrs. Shad's adorable gift and she made him the most loving quilt!

This pic is a bit blurry, but I had to show what Cooper's Aunt and Uncle gave him, this awesome Razorback bin full of adorable Razorback gear! Kendyl helped write all my gifts all weekend and was so much help to me! We had a blast together!! So excited for Cooper to meet Aunt KK and Uncle Logan! 

Kendyl and Pat stayed the night after the Fayetteville Shower and were able to help me SO much with organizing the gifts and getting everything put up in his room. We all had a busy, fun weekend and it just makes me so excited to see his little face! The Fayetteville shower was so special as it was filled with mostly new friends who we have grown to love up here. The Lord has provided such a sweet group of women to love on me and provide fellowship for me and I'm so grateful for these relationships! 

This week has been filled with COMMUNITY GROUP GIRLS' NIGHT, WORK BABY SHOWERS, PRENATAL MASSAGE, AND LOTS OF TIME WITH FRIENDS! 

Last night I was able to get together with the girls from a place a do PRN work for and we had such a great time together and they blessed us with a gift. Jordan is watching baseball tonight, tomorrow we are going to Les Mis, and then Sunday we will celebrate Mother's Day with a special thought in mind this year :) and such appreciation for our own MOMS! 

Cooper's 1st Baby Shower Celebration!!!

Last Saturday, April 30th, Pat's sweet friends threw me a baby shower for Cooper. It was so much fun and just a delight to see all these women love on us. We were able to get all kinds of necessary things for this little one and it kicked off the feeling that he is coming SOON!!!!

Here are Kendyl, Pat and I before the shower. 

Gorgeous table with Greek Yogurt(my favorite), homemade granola, coffee cake, grapes and cookies, and sweet napkins with "Cooper Jordan" monogrammed on them. 

His 1st pair of jeans from the Phillips family

Pat made this AMAZING basket for her grandson. It had all kinds of new books, some of Jordan's old books, Jordan's 1st baseball mitt, Jordan's 1st Bible and then one to match it for Cooper, it was awesome and so sweet to go through. She also passed down Jordan's baby blanket that Cooper can use too!

our goodies!!!!

Lindsey and I with our sweet bellies! She is just a month behind me with Baby Beckett!!!

And as a GREAT surprise, the great-grandparents bought us our travel system stroller and car seat. The morning of the shower Lynn and Kendyl put it together for me and they gave it to me at the shower. 

I just had so much fun at this shower and am beyond thankful for all of our gifts for Cooper.
