Daxton's Baby Blessing

Okay, I know this is late coming, but I'm not super woman! (just a week late, no big deal!) On Sept. 14 we blessed Daxton. Derek gave him a beautiful blessing. The day was so nice and it was nice to be able to spend time with all of our family! (except Blake)

Although Blake was not there physically, because he is on his mission, I really felt like his spirit was connected with us. One reason being that we named Daxton Blake after him. We know that Blake already holds a special place in his heart for Daxton. Another reason I felt so close to Blake is because we received hand made baby booties from a lady that Blake baptized in the Netherlands. These booties came in the mail just a couple days before the blessing. Daxton got to wear them for his blessing!

And here is a picture of my cute little family! I am so grateful for my boys!

Can I help?

This is the question I am constantly getting from Braedon. It doesn't matter if I am bathing Daxton, feeding him, changing his diaper, or anything Braedon wants to help me! It is very cute. The other night Braedon asked if he could change Daxton's diaper and I said "yes"! So here are a few cute pictures showing Braedon in the process. I thought that Derek would help him get through it, but by the time Braedon was pulling the diaper straps off I knew I needed to put the camera down because Derek was looking at me with eyes saying "what do I do?"!

Boys pictures

Last week I took the boys to get pictures taken. I was nervous because when I took Braedon in at 2yrs. he would not leave my arms to go sit on the table. Luckily my mom came with me this time and Braedon was absolutely perfect! Daxton was perfect too...he slept the entire time! Here are the pictures for your viewing pleasure! (I know their skin colors look odd...Braedon is as white as a person gets and Daxton is still jaundice!)
