baby blessing

last sunday we went to the LG ward & blessed little cossette kelly. austin blessed her & logan bob, david, my dad, my cousin stevie, & both our youngest brothers were able to participate. it was on her actualy due date which seemed a bit early but with everyone in town, we couldn't pass it up.


we seriously never get to see steve but he was down from oregon & we got to play with him the whole time austin's brothers & stephanie were in town. plus michael & zach both received the melchizedek priesthood a matter of weeks before so this was their first chance to use that. i hope it was as memorable for them as it was for us. too fun!



cossette wore a dress made for her by my madre. with quite the time constraint & it turned out great. it was a beautiful lightweight cotton with tons of lace trim in scallops around the bottom. there's an open jacket, buttoned at the top & cascading down the front to show off the detail of the slip underneath. i loved that it was in a bright white.

                                               

what a talented gramvi! thank you!


us with our girls.

afterward we congregated at our house & partied hard! haha. i love her name new flag/sign & can't wait to pull it out for bdays, etc!

besides my beautiful cake being melted into a puddle of gooey-awfulness on the stovetop the night before, the food was great & the company pretty swell too.

this was a first for us & i kind of had an 'i'm an awful mom' moment but i guess most kids fall asleep in their high chair at one time or another... right? validation please??

it was the perfect day.

I think the fact that she is nude in her high chair gives even more foder for the "Mother of the Year" title.
You go girl!!!
Thanks for the 2 adorable granddaughters.

That is awesome! Sometimes a nap in the high chair is needed.. especially for a big sister! The dress is amazing, nothing less would come out of your mommy though. Wish we could have been there! Cossette is gorgeous! Love the dark hair!! Love you guys.
