Happy Valentine's Day!

Okay, so I'm two days late, but better late than never...right? We had a very full and happy Valentine's weekend. Friday evening and Saturday morning we attended a marriage conference at our church taught by Dr. Bill Cutrer. He has a very unique background--he is an OB/GYN who later went to seminary and then served as a pastor for a few years. He's now a professor at Southern Theological Seminary, and he's written several books, including Sexual Initmacy in Marriage. His unique background makes him perfectly suited to address maritals issues from a Christian perspective. He reminded us a lot of Robin Williams in both looks and personality but with much cleaner humor. We really enjoyed the conference. It was also the first time that we took Isaiah to the church nursery, and he did really well. It allowed us to focus on the speaker and not worry over our baby boy.

Saturday night we (all three of us) went to Macaroni Grill for dinner. We were pushed for time to get there (seems the norm these days), but thankfully we made it within the 15 minute grace period of the reservation. I didn't have enough milk stored up beforehand, so I went to the bathroom to pump after ordering our food because I was scared Isaiah would wake up in the middle of our dinner ready for his. After about two minutes in the bathroom, Chris called saying our food was already there. Of all times for them to be so prompt...haha. The food was still warm when I got back to the table, so it was really no big deal. After dinner, we returned home for a dessert of chocolate fondue. Yum!

Sunday we had several visitors to brighten our Valentine's Day. Richie and Tamera came in from Hickory to visit and see Isaiah for the first time. Unfortunately, Isaiah's schedule was out of whack and they only got to see him for a few minutes before having to hit the road again.

Mom, Lindsay, and Austin came in Sunday afternoon for a visit as well. It was fun seeing Lindsay's growing baby bump and watching them gush over my sweet baby. He's well loved, that's for sure! He slept most of the time they were here but did oblige us all with a few smiles shortly before they left.

We were supposed to host small group at our house Sunday night, but when the Cartner's were the only family to make it, we opted for a game of spaids instead...real spiritual huh? We had a lot of fun and enjoyed seeing their sweet kiddos, Dakota and Corban. The girls beat the boys at spaids, of course, and we finished up our chocolate fondue.
