Naomi's Blessing

 One of the first things that I thought about when I found out I was having a girl was her blessing. 
I love hearing fathers blessings and all the amazing promises these tiny babies are given. I love to hear the humility and love in father's voices as they give these blessings.

Long before this little peanut was born I looked and looked online for the perfect dress. I found someone in Utah who made blessing dresses and as soon as I saw her style I knew it was the one! Maybe that's a little too emotionally attached to a blessing dress but it turned out just perfect! I did a little trade with her and she whipped up this little beauty with all the most beautiful details.

Kels bought her darling bracelet, I had my talented friend Carlee make the adorable bow, and Heidi bought her the perfect blanket to match it all! (dang, I didn't get pictures with the blanket!) Carly (who made the dress) also made the cutest little hat that was just like the cherry on top, but I was worried about it falling off all day so I had a bow as back up.

He so loves his little sister!

 I had to include this picture because his hair just cracks me up!
 Besides Aaron who unfortunately woke up sick that morning, my whole family was able to be there. I am so grateful for everyone who could come! We both feel so lucky to have such amazing and supportive parents and siblings and so much extended family.
I'm grateful for Kenny's grandparents too who never miss a thing! With all my grandparents gone I feel so lucky to have them.

I always tell Kenny he was blessed with the ability to speak so well and clearly. Too bad he didn't want to do litigation because I'm sure he'd be great at it. He gave Naomi a beautiful blessing with amazing promises and all of my most favorite men were able to stand in the circle.

Such a great day!

This picture cracks me up...this poor little girl in the midst of her 5 crazy boy cousins! (isn't my mom a hotty)
 And last but not least...I love this picture! Preston is always so sweet with all the babies, what a good uncle!
