Catching Up

Okay so I am really horrible at keeping this blog updated so to catch up on all the things that have happened lately...
Alden was baptized on July 11th. He was so excited to get baptized and it was a really good day for him. Hopefully he will have good memories of his special day. He was spoiled with gifts from lots of family and friends and he was very excited to have Aunt Tara and Great Grandma Thurson and Norton there. Alden has lost five teeth in the last couple weeks though so while it doesn't show in this picture he has a toothless grin. It is pretty funny looking.

Since everyone was here for Alden's baptism we decided to have Lila blessed last Sunday too. She wore the dress that I was blessed in as a baby and suprisingly it was fairly white. It held up pretty good all these years. She was a little small in it but that is okay. She is just a little tiny thing, while my boys are all small they didn't start out that way as babies so I am still trying to get use to how small she is. She is still wearing newborn clothes and some of them are still big on her.




Dallin is the best big brother. All the boys are really. They all give her a binky the second she starts to fuss and they are good at throwing diapers away and getting me things for her like burp rags and stuff but Dallin takes extra good care of her. When she is fussy wanting to eat or something and I am finishing up doing something he gets right next to her and sings Twinkle Twinkle Little Star to try to make her stop crying. It is really sweet.
