We blessed Soren in Sacrament meeting a couple weeks ago. I can't stand the satiny baby tuxedos that seem to be the only blessing/christening outfits available for baby boys, so yes, his blessing outfit was a white pique cotton romper that had a giant green rugby number and the Ralph Lauren Polo horse emblem on it. It was not formal, but it was sickeningly preppy and totally cute. He rocked it.
Aaron gave Soren a beautiful blessing. I wore the title of a proud mother who was able to listen to the entire blessing because my other children were sitting still paying attention and being perfectly reverent (read: playing angry birds. Hey man, don't judge, desperate times.) It was lovely. Soren fits in perfectly with our family. He is snuggly and patient and warm and squishy and very VERY smiley. His presence brings a loving peace and completeness to our home that we have known was missing for quite a while, and now that he is here, we can't remember life without him.
I'm pretty terrible at capturing Soren's adorable baby guy smile on camera. He usually ends up looking goofy or like a creepy old baby man. For the record, his smiles are the cutest thing ever...you just have to take my word for it, or come see them for yourself in real life. He is such a sweet baby. I'm a little (very) obsessed with him. His blessing day was a special one that was celebrated with dessert and close friends.

I hate those tuxedo outfits, too! Sooooo ugly. I found a sweater pattern that I am making my sister knit in white for our little man. I'll make him some little pants to go with, hopefully. I think its yime for me to start designing a few classy blessing outfits for boys.
Your family looks adorable, as does Soren. Congrats on making such adorable babies!
I just love those last two pics!
Angry Birds is the only answer to a quiet moment 'round here.
That was cutest little pumpkin I sat next to in church today! Those eyes make me melt.
