Leila's Blessing

We blessed our sweet little girl this weekend and I was so excited. I couldn't wait to put on her dress, her cute little shoes my friend made (by the way her website is on the side of my page go check it out,)and most importantly listen to her daddy bless her with all she needs. I love listening to Todd when he says a prayer, talks of the gospel, and give our children blessing. His strength he has in the gospel inspires me daily to learn as much as I can learn and live the life I should. Anyways, he did such a fantastic job that brought tears to my eyes. Leila was so sweet and Todd said she only got a little fussy towards the end. Afterwards we took a few pictures outside the church and headed to our house to have lunch. We put together a little picnic feast, my mother-in-law brought some delicious pulled pork and baked beans, I made potato salad, a fruit cocktail salad, and cut up some watermelon... It was YUMMY! I wish I had taken pictures of the lunch but was too busy running around. It was a wonderful, blessed day as we all have the chance to watch this little girl grow. I honestly can't believe she is 5 weeks old. It has gone by so fast, and even seeing the pictures of her as a newborn makes me miss that. She has been such a sweet spirit in our home and gives us reason to always smile. We are so thankful that we are entrusted to raise her and take care of her well-being. We know that she will be all that she can be. I put some pictures above of our sweet Leila.
