Baby Blessing

Gavin was 6 weeks old today and we had his baby blessing at church. We had a lot of Rich's family come - even though our church started at 8:30am!! Even his Grandpa came - we all call him Grandpa Great. Gavin wore the same blessing tux that our other boys have worn, but it barely fit Gavin! He is such a big boy. It was such a nice Sunday. After church we had a nice and yummy lunch with the family and relaxed and naped the rest of the day. That's what you get to do when church is so early. You have the whole day to hang out.
To explain the blue baby booties above, Rich's Grammy made them (his dad's mom). She made them for all her grandkids, all their babies, and even sent them with the boys on their missions to share around the world. They are extra special now that she is gone and there can never be any more just the same - made with her love. All our babies have been blessed with them on their tiny feet. And we have enough to pass one pair onto our children when they marry. Grammy gave us a pink and blue pair when we got married with a note that said 'may all your cares be little ones'. It was a beautiful blessing, and Gavin is such a special baby. It is wonderful to have a righteous husband who honors his priesthood and is able to bless our family in so many ways. He blesses us when we are sick, gave the children blessings before school started and has blessed all of our children with beautiful baby blessings - like today. Thank you Richard.
