Do you like Anna's blessing outfit? I don't either! Here is the story behind it.
As Anna's blessing day neared I got more and more stressed out. I'm one of those people that likes everything to be absolutely perfect and in my quest to make that happen I become a complete mess. Anna had the most perfect dress and beautiful headband to wear for her big moment. She also wore black tights with her dress to match the headband and I was excited to be a unique mom :) Well the morning arrived and Anna just wasn't herself, she could sense the excitement and stress surrounding the day.
We got to church and looked great, but of course she got hungry right before her blessing. So I hurry and fed her and then Josh took her. He did such a beautiful job with her blessing and I was so thankful he could do it for her. Josh had warned all of the men in the circle not to bounce her but apparently some of them didn't listen because....I had Anna back in my arms for just a few minutes when she projectile vomited everywhere! I mean the both of us were covered in baby throw up! Of course I started bawling instantly because our perfect dress and day were ruined and my mom rushed me home to get the both of us cleaned up.
Luckily Anna's dress was machine washable so we had it all cleaned up by the time brunch was supposed to start. I didn't get my perfect day but it will be a great story to tell her when she grows up.
We had so much family attend and some awesome friends too. We are so thankful to have so many wonderful people in our lives to share in the joy that Anna brings to us.
