Hayden's Blessing Day

Today was Hayden's blessing we were so happy to have so many family members able to make it. Adrianne was so kind to grab our camera and take some pictures for us.

The star of the day and the proud parents.

Daddy and Baby Hayden, Brian gave a beautiful blessing.

Of course the proud Grandpas

Me and my baby boy, he was starting to fuss because we were taking pictures out side on the porch. It was pretty chilly.

Hayden in his blessing outfit. He loves laying on  his belly.



Later that night back at home after the party. Mom and dad did one of Hayden's favorite things, getting rubbed with lotion. He just laid there all relaxed and stretched out.



Still our long and skinny baby. But he is starting to gain weight so he is looking more filled out now.


This past week was very busy at our house. Jennifer and her family came to Idaho on wed and of course baby and I spent as much time with them as possible. Then Thursday night Adrianne and her family joined us. I love having my family here they are so much fun. Then Friday Patrick and Cortney showed up, it was Garrett's birthday so we of course had to have a party. We had pizza and did presents and cake. He loved every minute of it. We also celebrated Cortney's birthday which is next week. Then Saturday we had a wonderful opportunity to go to a women's conference in the BYU-Idaho center. This conference was just for the Rigby South Stake but then got expanded to 25 stakes. My mother and the rest of the Stake relief society presidency put this crazy thing together. Sister Julie Beck came and spoke and my sisters and I were also invited to her special training. It was amazing. That night Brian, Hayden, and I headed to to Blackfoot to see the majority of Brain's family. We are so happy so many of them were able to come. Thanks Rachel for putting everyone up at your house. Then back home where we had Kurt and Verna stay the night with us. So Grandma could get in some time with baby alone. Then Sunday of course was the blessing at 9:30 in the morning. We were sad Jennifer and her family had to leave right after the sacrament. After a sad goodbye then it was off to lunch where my parents hosted a luncheon for us, because we could not fit that many people in our little apartment. All things must come to an end and Adrianne and Patrick and their families headed to their homes. Following them all the Christensen clan headed out.
We love you all!!! For all those that came thank you, and for the rest that couldn't make it we still love you and we missed you.
