March 6, 2011 - Siri's baby blessing

March 6, 2011 - Our sweet baby Siri Danielle was blessed today by my Aussie. It was a beautiful blessing and wonderful meeting with all of our family there to support us. The entire day was a complete joy! This baby has been sent to us straight from heaven. She is a complete joy! I cannot begin to express my gratitude to my Heavenly Father for such a gift. Each of our girls are the most amazing blessing in our lives. I just love them!

She looks pretty tough in her muscle onesie. (I had to cut the sleeves off the onesie so they wouldn't show in her blessing dress.)

Siri wore the same beautiful dress that Aniston and Tylar both wore for their baby blessing. Grandma Annie did an amazing job and I am grateful to have this beautiful dress for each of our girls...and the many more to come :).

Siri kept a low profile after the blessing, just relaxing in our room.

Great Grandma Pat and Great Grandpa Ed. Grandpa Ed made the cradle that each grandchild/great grandchild has slept in.

I made it!

Every time I look at this baby I smile!

At her 2 month appointment Siri was in the 97th percentile for weight (12.4 lbs ~ or so), 90th for head, and 75th for height....that's my girl!

Words of Wisdom

Tylar was intrigued with Siri's "pelican" after she was born. Pelican = Umbilical cord
During Christmas time Tylar began to end her prayers "In the name of baby Jesus Christ, amen."
While reading scritures before bed, Aniston asked, "Why were Laman and Lemuel mean?" Daddy replied, "Because they hit and said bad things." Aniston thought about that and asked, "Potty talk?" Daddy chuckled. Aniston quickly reprimanded him by saying, "Potty talk is not funny!" At that point, Daddy completely lost it and Aniston started to giggle too. **Lesson: Sometimes potty talk IS funny!
"I went on a bus to see Jesus." Yes, these are the exact words that came out of Aniston's mouth as we passed a school bus. I wasn't sure exactly what she meant so I asked, "What?" She replied, "I went on a bus to see Jesus, but he wasn't there"......It took me a moment to realize what she meant. When we went to the Draper temple open house, we did indeed take a bus up to the temple....amazing! Not wanting to miss out on a great teaching moment I explained that the temple is Jesus' house and he was there, but we just didn't see him. She thought about that for a moment and said, "Yeah." (April 2009)
*** While Austin was singing a beautiful rendition of "Oh Aniston" from the living room, Aniston called from the bathroom while going potty, "Stop singing! I need some privacy!" (October 2008)
*** I was not in the mood to make a gourmet meal for dinner, so I went for pancakes and fruit. While we were eating Aniston got a particularly sour green apple and said, "This dinner is disgusting!" Austin replied, "It's not disgusting, it's fantastic!" Aniston shot back, "It's not fantastic!" Austin asked, "Well, what would you call it?" Without a moment's hesitation Aniston announced, "Skunk poop!" (October 2008)
