Olivia's Blessing

Oh boy, what a weekend!  We were lucky enough to have some family come into town to attend Olivia's baby blessing on Sunday.  Nick's sister Megan got here on Thursday night, so we thought it would be fun to go up to Santa Monica with her on Friday.  We did a little shopping, ate some yummy food, and walked on the pier for a while.

Becky's parents arrived Saturday afternoon-- Grandpa Brian brought a beautiful name plate that he made for Olivia!




On Sunday Olivia had her baby blessing at church.  Her cousins Lindy and Kyla were kind enough to let her borrow their beautiful blessing dress.  Unfortunately, Miss Olivia had a diaper blow-out in the white dress right after sacrament meeting...Olivia ended up going through 3 outfits at church and peed all over Megan.  She just wanted to make her blessing day extra memorable :)  But in all that hubbub, we didn't get a picture of her in the blessing dress!  Becky rushed home after church to wash the dress and was (thankfully) able to get it all clean and pretty again.  So, we took some pictures of Olivia in it today and will pretend like we took them on Sunday!

  1. She is so adorable :) I LOL'd at the blowouts - how funny/frustrating! We'll be doing Em's blessing in a few weeks and I'm looking forward to her own explosions. This past week we went on a road trip and boy does the car get her relaxed and rid her of any slight constipation. I luckily had grabbed one extra outfit for the trip - my first lesson that babies need to have their entire wardrobe and a million diapers at all times.
