hair cut

Hallie has had her hair trimmed a bunch of times by our friend Liz in Idaho.  Since moving here though she hasn’t  had a cut at all.  Hallie had long pretty hair but it was getting hard to keep it looking nice.  She hated having me put it up.  If it was left down it was always messy tangled and in her face.  We were told about a hair cutting place for kids and took Hallie and she loved it.  She got to sit in a pink jeep while getting her hair cut and watch Cinderella.  Afterwards she got play in a little house in their play area.  The hardest part about the whole experience was getting her to leave.

     

Lincoln did great waiting.  He is such a wonderful baby.

name and a blessing

Sunday November 20th Lincoln was given his first Priesthood blessing.  Berret gave him the blessing with Wes, Warren, and our Bishop in the circle.

I made his little white outfit. Using some of the clothes he already had, I made a pattern and guessed on how to make a shawl collar. I tested my pattern with some old fabric and worked out the problems. Then I worked on the real thing (last minute of course) and it came together with out any problems. I love how it turned out and he was cuddly in it.

 

I just love my little man’s smile!

After church yesterday before we rushed into our comfy clothes we took some quick family pictures.   We use a setting on our camera that will take 15 pictures in row.  After doing that setting a couple times we hope a few come out decent.  Now we at least have some pictures of us all together.
