Razy's Baby Blessing

So it has taken me awhile but here are some pictures of Razy in her blessing dress. Razy was given a name and blessing in the Church of Jesus Christ of Latterday Saints on October 14th 2007. JBody and a small group of friends and family stood in the priesthood circle while JBody gave our new little one a very special blessing. This has been a wonderful and special time in the lives of each of our children as I have listened to their Father give them a blessing.

We have made it a tradition to have a BBQ or some type of dinner afterwards to celebrate with family and friends. For Razy we chose to do a brunch because church was in the morning. Peaches' little brother was also celebrating his return from his two year mission so it made it a grand event. Lots of family and friends participated.

A little FYI on the dress. I fell in love with it after many hours of searching online. I really wanted smocking, and for it to be really long. It had to be simple and I really liked the heirloom look. I know the pictures that I have posted don't give it justice, but to see the whole dress you can click here. My Grandmother was going to try to make the dress, but it was a little harder than we were expecting. So I bought the dress and she decided to continue to make her dress and put it on baby doll for Razy.

The blanket that Razy is laying on was made by JBody's Mother. She crocheted it and wove a pink ribbon around the edge. I wanted something all white with just a hint of girl. She did a perfect job.

Looking back at these pictures, I can't believe it has already been 5 months. They grow up way to fast.
