Jett's blessing day was on the first Sunday of the month this year, January 5th. He looked so dang adorable (and snuggley) in his little sweater outfit I found for him! I'm not a fan of the traditional mini suit and tie blessing outfits for baby boys that are usually all made of satin, so I had been on the search for awhile to find something else suitable. We're just not those kind of prim and proper fams so I wanted something more "us"... like letting Gage wear sweet Converse shoes with his tux for our wedding. That's our style. So, thank you Target for being that place I found such a cute outfit and Kohl's for the perfect matching booties. My beloved stores.
It was a busy day for blessings, so two itsy-bitsy baby girls went first before chunker Jett. I told Jake that when it was finally our turn, he should get the mic and say in a deep, sultry voice, "Ladies...." but (sigh) he did not. Jake did a great job and of course I got teary-eyed. Jett stayed perfectly calm, which I was a wee worried about since he was not in his napping milk-coma yet and had just started up his squeals, cooing, and hiccups after the opening prayer. Good baby! And kudos to the men in the prayer circle for all being to hold up Jett's chunky buns for a whole 2-3 minutes. After church, it was off to Olive Garden with the fam to break the Sabbath, and ooooh was that seafood alfredo delicious! Overall, it turned out to be a low-key, special day, and I'm grateful for my little family.
