Brynlee's Blessing

We blessed Brynlee on Jan. 2. We realized earlier in the week that there was no way to get everything done that we wanted to for the blessing. So we tried to do what we could and hoped everyone didn't mind coming over to a house that was under construction and had no carpet anywhere and tape/plastic everywhere. Here's the best picture that kinda shows the status of our house. The good thing, however, is that we didn't have 60 people walking on our new carpet that came 4 days after the blessing. 

 We had a wonderful breakfast buffet. I LOVE breakfast food, so I was in heaven. Thanks to all those that brought food!

Here is our 4 generation picture:

By the time I had gotten out my camera, Brayden had changed and Brooklyn was grumpy and ready for a nap. Oh well... 

 Brayden loves to cuddle with Brynlee:

 Our little princess:

 Rachael and Brynlee. A lot of Josh's family thinks that Brynlee looks like Rachael. Good thing Rachael is cute!

 So precious:

 It might be hard to tell, but she loved this.

I feel so blessed to have 3 wonderful children. Brynlee has been the biggest blessing to us during a time that has been very chaotic. She is very pleasant and peaceful, and her presence in our home has brought a calmness amidst the chaos we've been in with our house. I'm grateful for a husband who holds the priesthood and is such a great husband and father. I'm most grateful for a Father in Heaven who knows me and has entrusted me with this precious little spirit. He sent her at a time when we needed a reminder of what is important in this life. She has been a blessing and a joy in our home. Thank you Brynlee for all you have taught us already.
