Today was Easton's blessing day. It was supposed to happen 2 weeks ago, but we had to cancel at the last minute because me and Easton were sick, he had a stuffy nose and I don't know what I had but it included a fever for 3 days and extremely swollen glands in my throat, it was nasty. Luckily Easton didn't get that too. It was actually a good thing that we changed the date, it made it more convenient for quite a few people and the weather was so nice today, it was rainy and cold on the original date. Even though our sacrament meeting was at 9 we had a very good turnout. We have such a wonderful family who were willing to sacrifice sleep to come and be here for this special event, Grandpa and Grandma especially who had a 2 hour drive to get here and they were even 30 minutes early. Norm gave Easton a beautiful blessing. We are enjoying our sweet little boy so much, it's so special to have him in our family. I feel incredibly blessed to have the opportunity to be his mom and love him and take care of him.
Notice the chubby leg rolls....

And where are our girls you ask.....they were too busy playing with cousins and uncle Keldon to pose for any pictures. Aleeya did change Easton's diaper and get him dressed in his blessing outfit this morning which was a great help to me. They love their little brother and are very willing to help take care of him. Haylee has been telling us that she's in love with Easton, how sweet, she's a silly little thing, and she also proudly tells people that she's the middle child now.
What sweet pictures! How fun to have so much family down for the blessing. I love his chubby legs! CUTE! What a fun day. I wish I was there.
ReplyDeleteThanks, it was a fun day. We are planning on going up to Island Park for the family vacation, it will be fun to see everyone and get caught up a little. How's life in Ohio?
