Peter's blessing was the first of March. It was such a lovely day! We had lots of family come and Peter actually didn't cry during his blessing. He is the first of our children to behave! True, he was swaddled so tight in his favorite blue blanket that he hardly knew what was going on. I made Mike promise to unwrap him to show him off to the congregation. After the blessing, Mike fumbled with the blanket for a good 10 seconds then announced to the congregation that he couldn't get him unwrapped! It was pretty funny.
The blessing was very nice. Peter was promised all the blessings of a righteous life, and happiness. It was comforting to me.
I totally forgot to take any pictures of Peter on the day of the blessing. Duh, huh! So we had a little photo shoot a few days later. This blessing outfit was worn by Michael when he was blessed. It was also worn by Joshua and Andrew. I love this tradition. Caitlin was blessed in my blessing dress as well. It is pretty special.
I LOVE this picture! It says so much about the relationship between Caitlin and her little brother! She is so angelic and sweet and attentive and loving.......and Peter has to endure the torture of it!
