Holland's Blessing








I have to back up a bit because of our non-existent computer and post about Holland's blessing. A blessing in our church is a special prayer said for the child and to present him to the Lord and our church. We had most of our family there and it was a special day for Holland. He got to wear a white suit and was so wonderful through all the church meetings. Afterword we had a luncheon and we were able to sit around and visit without messing up my house.

Here is something to tide you over!

We have been without a computer for a long time now and I haven't had time to blog even if I wanted to, which I haven't. But, I don't want all this time to go by and then have nothing documented for months at a time, so here is some stuff to fill in a long gap. We finally got a new computer that has a web cam and so I sat down and tried it out by taking pictures of a few things. Holland is a big spitter upper and it gets EVERYWHERE!! So, I made a couple boppy covers yesterday that turned out really cute. I already had the fabric and supplies, so it was very economical and did I mention cute and easy;) It is hard to tell, but their are apples, lemons, ice cream cones, and purple and white flowers on the blue background (perfect for summertime).
Here is Merilee's Pre-K graduation picture. She is beautiful!
Here is one of Holland's birth announcements that I have not sent out yet. They are all basically the same with some different paper.


Here are Holland's 1 month pictures that turned out really good. I had no idea how to dress a boy for pictures. What do you dress them in? He was really sleepy and kept wanting to grab his face.


This one is in a frame and that is why it looks kinda funny.
And now I hear Holland waking up so I have no more time. He got shots today so he wants to cuddle, which is fine by me!
