Holland’s Blessing

We blessed Holland last Sunday.  It was our last Sunday in our ward and it was so nice to have as many family and friends as we did participate in it!  Holland was awesome during the blessing and slept during the get-together afterwards.  Casey gave a very sweet blessing and I felt like the luckiest girl and mom in the world to have such an amazing husband and wonderful girls!

This is what Holland did pretty much the entire day!  I love those chubby cheeks!

I thought it was fun to see this picture of Carly’s bessing.  Carly and Holland look pretty similar to me!

My mom always knows how to get Holland to stop fussing.  Holland LOVES grandma!

We love you so much sweet Holland!

1 month!

 

My sweet Holland girl is 1 month old today!  She is the sweetest baby in the world.  I really couldn’t ask for a better baby! She loves to just hang out and look around, and when she’s tired I’ll just put her down on the bed and she’ll fall asleep! She has been an amazing sleeper (for a newborn). She usually only wakes up 1 time to eat at night which has been a dream come true. 

   She has been smiling for a few weeks and it melts my heart when she smiles back at me.  She has the most kissable cheeks, and I kiss them all the time. 

She loves her pacifier, and I love that she loves it. It helps her go to sleep and we don’t need to rock her for hours like we had to do with Carly every night. 

We are so grateful for Holland and her sweet spirit.  She really is an angel sent from heaven.  We love her so much!
