So today was Reese's blessing day!!! We started the morning off with a nice warm bath...clean fresh baby... get that dried milk smell off!!
I was unable to find the right kind of slip for her dress so we had to settle with a plain old onesie, however we did get fancy underpants with frills on the bum and her first pair of panty hose...
We are so grateful to those who came up to the blessing despite the awful weather. We woke up this morning to over 6 inches of snow. Most of our family was coming from Utah and Preston and everyone made it with out any accidents - the roads were horrible!!! My mom wouldn't have made it on time if we had the blessing during sacrament meeting... thankfully we were able to put it off until after the meeting so everyone was able to make it. After the blessing we headed down to Downey to have lunch (since our apartment isn't too accommodating to a larger crowd). It continued to snow all day but the roads were at least plowed by this time. We had a grand ole' time eating and watching the super bowl (which thankfully the giants won). When we were trying to take pictures of Reese in her dress she kept sticking out her bottom lip...which is cute...but we would have liked a picture of her smiling...the picture above is the closest we got. She is wearing the same dress I was blessed in so it was kind of special (luckily I was a large child too so the dress fit perfectly). So it was a good day and she was a good baby with all the passing around to the family members she hadn't met before.
