Lucy's Blessing Day












On Sunday, June 7th...Benson gave Lucy a name and a blessing at church! It was eventful...before church she was happy and nodding off to sleep and Megan (my niece) was holding her right before church was starting...she started to get a little fussy so I took her and right away I noticed she was poopy...I grabbed my diaper bag and ran to change her before church started! I get started and there is poop EVERYWHERE...oh no, the opening song is already started! I take all her clothes off and I am wiping her down...the song is almost over and she is naked! I get her dressed, throw away her onsie...no time to clean up...and run in the the chapel just in time for Benson to take her! Needless to say...she cried through her blessing because she was kind of ticked that I woke her up to change her! Oh well!
Regardless, Benson gave her a really sweet blessing and it was such a special experience for our family! So she is officially Lucy Donna Bashford! Her Nana (that she is named after) bought her the blessing dress and my mom bought the flower for her hair! She looked adorable! I loved getting her dressed and seeing her in all white!
After her blessing we had a big family party to celebrate that and Benson's 32nd Birthday...what a memorable day!

Loving her dress, but really love the yellow tutu a few posts down! It looks like the other kids can't get enough of her. (:

Lucy looks gorgeous in her blessing dress! At least her dress didn't get ruined by her explosion!...Brooklyn exploded about 5 minutes after she was blessed and had to change into my emergency outfit in the diaper bag
:( I'm so impressed that you have kept up bloggin with a newborn! Happy birthday Benson!

She is SO cute! I had no idea there was so much drama before the blessing! Everything went very smooth from my point of view! Funny story though!

Kyle,

Oh my goodness. Lucy can't be that old already. One month passed in a second.

Your little family is darling. Happy Anniversary and Happy Birthday to Benson! I love that picture of Sammy too. Your blog is fun to read :)

She is such a beautiful girl. What a great day. On days like that I don't think anything goes smoothly, but then you have those few minutes (Benson blessing Lucy)in the day that make it all worth while.
Also- Happy Birthday Benson.

Sweet family!
