2 Months and a Blessing

I Cannot believe that my Baby Boy is two months old! It seems like just yesterday I was holding him for the first time.
Like a lot of my fabulous Ideas, I stole this one from my sister-in-law Miranda. She takes a picture of her kids every month of their first year, usually with something to do with that month. Obviously it's December, so on Tebbins two month day (yesterday) I got him in a santa hat and stuffed him in a stocking to take some pictures. I really did have to Stuff him too... he's getting to be a chunker! And I kept him in his super cute jammies- my favorite ones he has.
And I had to post some pictures of Tebbin on his blessing day. My mother bought the blessing outfit for him. She made the bow tie from the sleeve of my wedding dress. Each of my childrens blessing outfits will have a piece of my wedding dress on it. And Great Grandma Mollie Coon made the white blanket that he was wrapped in throughout the day.
Cameron did such a good job blessing him. His brother Chris was kind enough to put a recorder in his pocket so I can write down the blessing word for word and give it to Tebbin when he is older.

Thank you to all of our Family and friends that came to support us on his blessing day! We love and appreciate you!Oh yeah, and my hair is dark now too... I have some good pictures of Cameron dying it darker... compliments of Jon... that'll have to be my next post!
