Annie calls her Ollie and Violet totally loves it.

 Ollie's Baby Blessing
 Someday... Someday.  
Until that day, very brief non-captioned snippets are all this blog is going to get. 
Poor Q.  He blessed V and then worked the entire rest of the day so he missed the dinner and family photos.  And what a terrific dinner it was. In fact, we ended up having to make dinner 3 times for the ever growing violet fan club that stopped by to wish her well. Bet you can guess the color theme for our wardrobes.  Violet Violet Violet! 

 I should remember about Violet that she is all things desirable when it comes to babies.
She sleeps through the night (already better than Annie), is super squishy and cuddly.  She LOVES being naked, have her diaper changed, and taking a bath, and her entire face lights up when she smiles.  Her eyes are big and brown.  She doesn't cry all that often.  She is sweet and mild.

 Here is Eye-let in the dress that both Annie and I wore on our blessing days too.
 Lots of boys are living at my parents' house right now.

Party Annie


Annie was blessed in the same church and ward that I was blessed in. Quinn gave her a fabulous blessing on Labor Day weekend {Sept. 5th, 2010} and then we invited friends and family over for a big dinner party. I splurged on a Shabby Apple dress for the event because it was the only thing I could find online [I do all my shopping online] that covered all the wrong spots in all the right places.


Annie wore my blessing dress for the event.
Plain and simple.
My Grandma Metcalf bought it for me 30 years ago.






Dinner was terrific and Annie remains the perfect poster baby!
