So William turned 8 this year. He was a little sad to learn that our stake does baptisms at the end of the month because he had to wait a whole month. I told him that I had to wait a whole month when I was eight. This didn't make him feel any better. But he was very excited to get baptized and we are so proud of him.
William and Brandon all dressed and ready.
All the kids wanted to be in the pictures. Caitlyn wasn't very happy when I told her she had to be in Sunday clothes for the baptism.
Our family after the baptism. Since both sets of Grandparents were in town we blessed Grant after the baptism. So they wouldn't have to worry about two trips. Mom told me that she was glad Grant decided to come early enough that we could do both. My parents were nice enough to stay a week with us to help me out, help get ready for the baptism and hold the baby a lot. The blessing outfit fit him, mainly because he eats constantly. Not sure exactly how big he is right now but at nine days he weighed in at 9lbs 12oz. His dr was impressed by the fact that he gained just over a pound in a week.
The boys together.
All the men who were there to support William.
Family. Brent and Cami drove down also. It is nice that they are close enough we can go to each others events.
Our friend Alyssa was able to come also. We consider her another member of our family, and she is the reason Brandon got a job out here, so we were really glad that she could be with us. The kids were really excited to see her, they always get really excited even if they are just seeing her on TV. It was a really special day, I just can't believe William is actually 8.
