"Count Your Blessings, Name Them One By One..."

Today was Corbin's Blessing Day!
We were fortunate to have both Grandma's here for the special event. Reese and Quincy were super excited to wear their little white dresses that I got to match Corbin's white blessing outfit. My mom had a friend from her mission sew tiny blessing dresses for new baby dolls that she brought for the girls, and even knitted tiny white blankies to match the white blanket she knitted for Reese's blessing day. Each of my children have been snuggly and warm in this blankie on their blessing day. I plan to take the kids to have some photos taken of them all in their white outfits...hopefully I can keep them white long enough to do that!
I'm so grateful that Aaron holds the Priesthood and has the opportunity to give his children a father's blessing. It was a special day.

Corbin,
I hope you know how blessed we feel to have you. We love you so much.
Love,
Mom, Dad, Reese and Quincy

Beautiful family, Meg. Although, I was a little surprised to see Corbin's bare naked baby feet. And then I remembered it's summer. Heaven help us if we have any kids in the summer months - they'll be wearing sweaters and booties galore. I blame having Evie in the dead of winter for that (seriously, it was -10 the day we brought her home).

yeah it has been an ajustment here too! I am so used to winter babies...it is nice to not be FREEZING and have to work around 100 layers and blankets when I nurse, or worry about a draft when he's on the floor for tummy time. I'm also used to putting a onesie under everything, but it's just going to be too hot for that soon!
