The First White Dress

Phoebe's baby blessing was yesterday. It was beautiful and very spiritual. Bryan did a wonderful job.


If you enlarge this one you'll see how blue her eyes are right now. I'm so used to all my brown-eyed boys, it still catches me off-guard that hers seem to be staying blue.

When Peter was blessed, my great-great aunt Bettie made him this sweater and afghan along with a bonnet, mittens, and booties. All three children have been wrapped in the afghan during their baby blessing. It's a nice tradition we have.



We were lucky to have some friends and family members here for the occasion. There were a few more that we didn't get pictures of. Despite the lack of photographic evidence, we are thankful they came!

Cooper and Phoebe have the same expression in this picture. They had almost the same look as one another in a different picture, but since they were both screaming at the time, I decided to go with this one instead. Good choice, no?

You said you would have a hard time trying to make her girly... WHATEVER!!! She looks girl enough. CUTE!

And, she looks like you!!! Then, further down your blog, saw her in the BYU shirt and she reminded me of Bryan!

What a sweet fam you have. Paige is a genius, just like Peter. It is hard to not think of them as REALLY old, huh? I like the reminders they are still children. (comment from an earlier blog post.)

Merry Christmas, you guys!
