Setting up Mom's Together

This fall has been filled with weird weather. Today it was hot and dreary, an odd combination. Since we had a late night last night Ellie and I decided to take a nap after breakfast. And, quite frankly, we didn't have anything better to do. Kelly emailed us and asked if we wanted to come over for grilled cheese and tomato soup, so we went over there around 11:15. Clark was a cheerful chap when we arrived and showed off his tricks with his little cars. Ellie was fighting sleep the entire time and didn't fall asleep the entire two hours we were there. After Clark had been sleeping for over an hour I thought it would be best that we head out so that Kelly could enjoy some alone time before he woke up. So we texted Mom.
Mom is hosting a Moms Together event tomorrow morning so today she was getting ready for it. We stopped by the church to help set up the tables. Mimi grabbed a swing from the nursery for Ellie and she finally fell asleep after sitting in there for a while. By that time she had been awake over three hours. What a stinker!
We set up all the tables and Mom came up with a list of things she needed to bring tomorrow and I made a promise to try to arrive by 9:00 (the event starts at 9:15) to figure out the coffee. Hopefully Ellie heard that promise and will help me out. We went back to Mom's where Kelly and Clark had just arrived after his nap. Mommom stopped by with fresh bread and we all ate a slice or two for a snack - all of us except for Clark and Ellie. Clark was begging for some but as soon as that fresh, soft bread touched his lips he jerked his hand away and gave the piece back. He doesn't know what he's missing!
The Mary Kay box had arrived so I went through it and handed out the makeup orders and wrote Kelly's receipt. Jon was working late so Ellie and I ended up hanging around until 5:15. Dinner was leftover soup, french bread, and cheese and crackers. Fortunately Jon is easy to please!
I'm really looking forward to the Moms Together tomorrow morning. I've been fortunate to be related to the hostess because I have been at every event, even though this is my first one with an actual baby. Thanks, Mom!
