Blessed Baby

We were able to bless Finn in church this past week. On the way to church Marc and I were discussing how nervous we had been for T's blessing - we were both worried she would cry and scream through the whole thing - and how Finn is so laid back and easy going that we weren't worried about him doing that at all. So, of course, he started fussing right before Marc took him up and then cried right into the microphone the whole time. It's really quite unusual for him to cry much, in fact, for the first part of the blessing I was wondering whose baby was crying so loudly, and then I realized it was Finn! Marc gave him a beautiful blessing, and we are so glad that we have this little guy in our family.

He is such a chunk. He wore the outfit Marc was blessed in many years ago. Except for the bonnet which, even if Marc had not deemed it too girly to be worn, was miles too small for his big ol' head.


Also, just as a heads up, there are a LOT of pictures in this post. 




Teresa thought he was dressed like an angel and Nora said "why is he dressed like an old lady?".

These sisters sure love him bunches.

Nora decided to help Finn smile for the camera...


   

I know I've said it a hundred times, but I'll say it a hundred more - we just love Finn so much. He is such a perfect baby in so many ways, and we are so thankful for him everyday.

Tara and Marc, he is so adorable!! What a special day and you all looked great! Tara, I love that color on you! Dad looks sharp, and Mom too, and Marc's parents are so sweet and good-lookin' as well :) What a nice chunky big healthy boy you have there. Ha, that's so ironic that he cried so much... Babies, always letting you know who's really in charge ;) Love the girls outfits too. I love you guys!!! We love you, can't wait to show the kids in the morning!

No, not too many pictures! They are so good ... look at his great smiles in the ones by himself; and that is a lovely blessing outfit Marc's mother made for Marc ... it is still in great and white shape. The girls are so pretty too, in their nice Church clothes. Thanks for sharing with us ... love, Mom xox

He looks so cute in Marcus's little blessing outfit! He's such a little chunker. That's hilarious that N thought he looked like a little old lady, haha! I love the pics of the girls hugging him/each other. So sweet. And your kids have such good-looking grandparents! How great for them to have all FOUR at once. I'll bet they were a little bit sad when everyone left... Oh, yeah, and I love that Nora was trying to "help" him smile, hehee...
