Baby blessing and odds and ends

The day of the baby blessing. We went out to DeRidder because Eric's brother TJ was visiting, so it was a perfect chance for Eric to have two of his brothers and his dad stand in the circle with him. It was a short and sweet blessing: Virginia spit up big time right as Eric started (hence the pink outfit instead of white). She got the essentials and I think she'll still turn out all right ;)

We had a little photo shoot tonight to get some pictures in her blessing dress. She spit up right after this. Maybe she just doesn't like the dress? Haha.

Tonight we got Noah to hold Virginia for the first time. He is an awesome big brother. His shirt even says so! He LOVES this shirt and wants to wear it all the time, even to bed. We got it off him long enough to wash it last night, but then he wore it again today and wouldn't let us change it again for bed. I hope he continues to take his big brother duties seriously (especially when Virginia starts dating...).

Noah is too cute in that shirt!
I continue to have newborn jealousy over here. Virginia tricked me into thinking Grayce would come as early as Tommy did! But she's super adorable so we'll try to look past that. Congrats! We miss you guys.
