Beautiful Blessing

Today was a beautiful day for a blessing. Everything was perfect. I've been so nervous about this day since I found out I was pregnant with Paxton. I tried to time feedings so that he would be asleep during the blessing but he woke up right before. He was awake the whole time and my dad (cheated and opened his eyes during the blessing) said Pax laid there and looked at the ceiling so calmly. You know they are so close to Heaven. A sweet little child of God.
Jason gave a beautiful blessing (and Testimony after) that of course made me emotional and put everything in my life into perspective. We have such a purpose here.  Life has so much meaning. In the hustle and bustle of life, sometimes it's easy to forget that we are so blessed with the knowledge of eternal families.

I was so happy to have my family(except Spencer. He was on a trip), my mom's parents, Jason's parents and Tiff's family to come and be with us on this special day.

I was so excited that Pax was also able to wear the blessing outfit that Jason was blessed in. It made it all the more special.

It was also Paxton's 2 month birthday.
This weekend we moved up to a size one diaper, which is still big on him.
He now sleeps in big boy pajamas instead of the dress sleepers.
He sleeps in his room now
A week and a half ago he started only waking up once a night, sometimes twice. The first night he made it to 5:30, I about cried out with joy. Some nights are still better than others, but it beats waking up 3 or 4 times a night.
Two weeks ago he got his first little stuffy nose. It was so sad to hear him sniffle.
Last Saturday on the 28th, he smiled for the first time. It's so sweet. He loves his changing table and that's where he has a lot of his excitement.
Tomorrow he has his 2 month check up and I'm not excited for him to get his shots.
He can stand up when you hold his hands, even though his legs get tired and wobbly.
He loves his little jungle jim play mat and loves kickin the rattle



Cutest stretch ever!
Big stretches!


Chubby smiles







He is growing and learning so quickly.
