Navy is 5 months

Our girl is five months old! She is amazing. She is rolling and scooting like crazy. If she sees toys she will find a way to get to them. She absolutely adores watching her brothers and sister. She is so entertained by them. She is sitting up with support from something. She loves playing with her feet. Miss Navy LOVES attention! It is so funny to see her talk until someone gives her some love. She is growing so big now that she is on her special formula for her tummy. She has been sick this last week and it is so sad to hear those cries and that stuffy nose. Here is to a healthier and fun next month! We sure are blessed with her in our home!

CTR Benjamin :)

Saturday January 14 Benjamin got baptized as the newest member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints for our ward. We had an amazing turnout. The love and support that was showed to Benjamin was amazing. We are so grateful to you all. In preparation for his day he got to go on a special date with Grandma Cindy and Grandpa Richard to get his very first set of scriptures. He is so proud of them. I love seeing his excitement as he reads and his testimony grows stronger.

Grandpa Richard talked about Baptism and the doors to get back to our Heavenly Father. He was going through the door to today to start on his way! He bore testimony that praying and reading the scriptures every day will help him through his life. After the baptism Uncle Chad gave a talk about the gift of the Holy Ghost. He got multiple little gifts for Benjamin. All were things that were reminders and guides that represented all the ways the Holy Ghost can help and guide us.

Jake stood up to say a few words. He got pretty choked up and spoke of the importance of Benjamin in his life. He spoke of the day he met Benjamin and the day we were all sealed together in the temple. I have never seen Jacob cry before and he brought tears to the whole room. We were all so touched by Jacob's love and the spirit that morning.

The spirit was so strong with us that day as we spent time with our family. I am so proud of Benjamin and all he has learned about the gospel and will continue to learn. My first baby got baptized and the moment was so touching. Benjamin has such a strong spirit, he has the kindest heart and is completely loved by so many. We had a packed room and packed house as we all showed our love for this sweet boy. I love you Benjamin!
