What a Blessing!

Sunday February 6, 2011. We Blessed Gwyneth Kate. Jeff gave the blessing. Uncles' Marcus & Jeremy as well as Bishop Pesci and Brother Duckworth stood in her circle. Sam F. Held the mirophone. It was a great blessing. Mom might have gotten emotional were it not for two wild boys sitting with her! They actually did pretty well, they are just distrating. I took notes for Gwyn's personal journal. It was a very persoanl blessing for me as a mom and for Gwyneth as a special child of our Heavenly Father.
As soon as Jeff started the blessing baby girl started to cry. She didn't like being held lying down, and so she kept it up throughout the blessing. As soon as it was over and Daddy held her up she smiled and was happy! What a stinker! Daddy did really well keeping calm and collected, and was only a little flustered when it was over!
This day was also a double-birthday. Daddy turned 31, Gwyneth turned 3 months!
Happy Birthday to my Best friend and my favorite daughter!

Promising this photo was the only way to get Brady into the others.
Zachary was bribed with gum.

Our little family.

What a cute family! That last photo is amazing! My boys might smile or they might look at the camera, but certainly not both simultaneously.
Gwenyth is so darling! Congratulations!
