Lydia's Baby Blessing

On April 23rd we had Lydia's baby blessing and it turned out wonderful! We did it on a Friday night instead of during Sacrament meeting because Gregory's dad would be in town that weekend (he was driving Krystal home from BYU). I couldn't believe how many people showed up for the blessing, some friends even came up to Salt Lake from Utah Valley for it. Lydia is definitely loved. We had a lot of good food after and everyone had a chance to mingle and take pictures. My mom bought Lydia the most beautiful blessing dress and she looked fantastic in it. Unfortunately, I forgot the headband that went with the dress at my parents house but I did take pictures of her later in the dress with the headband. Jennifer (Gregory's cousin) took some great photos of Lydia at the blessing, she does such a good job! I still can't believe that we have a child! Gregory got nervous just before he went up to bless her thinking that this is his child and he can't mess the blessing up, but he did a fantastic job!

Mommy and daughter!


Daddy and daughter!


The gorgeous dress!


The most adorable baby in the dress! (So I'm a little biased...what mother isn't?) Just look at those eyes. This picture is my favorite. Thanks Jen for capturing my baby so well!

I loved this one of Marta and Ed because she is being so proper with her little hands folded neatly in front of her.


The Wager clan that made it. We missed you Rich, Summer and Steve-o!

Sammie was so funny! She loves "baby Lydia" and was excited every time she got to kiss or hug the baby.


A big thank you to all who helped with the blessing and to my most wonderful mother for the beautiful dress!
