Cosette's Baby Blessing

We blessed Cosette on May 1st, when she was exactly 2 months old. She wore the same dress that I did when I was blessed. It was made by my Oma (my father's mother).
I took a few pictures that morning before we left for church. I thought this first one really showed her personality. What a happy (and wiggly) little girl!

A lot of family were able to come. My parents, my brother Ken and his wife Rachel, my sister Suzanne and her 3 kids (her husband had to work), my Oma and Opa, Jeff's dad and his wife Rita (who flew out from Oregon), Jeff's sister Rachel and her husband Jeff and their 4 kids, Jeff's brother Ben and his wife Hilary and their 3 kids (they drove up from Cedar City), and Jeff's sister Linda and her kids Lizzie and Spencer.
I was worried that Cosette might cry during the blessing, especially since she was a little tired and crabby about 10 minutes before the meeting started, but thankfully she fell asleep in my mother's arms. I was so grateful!
That evening we had a potluck dinner at Jeff and Rachel's house. It was fun having both sides of our family get together. Both Rachel and Hilary commented on how much they love my dad and that they would like to adopt him. They like my mom too, of course, but Dad just has a special way with the kids. They all love him.
Overall it was a fun and wonderful day.
