Chamberlain's blessing & 4th of July

Saturday was kinda a crazy day for us. By the time firework shows were a few hours away, we didn't have a plan. We knew we wanted to take Wyatt and Chamberlain to fireworks, but we didn't know where. Last minute we decided to go to some fireworks in Sandy. Wyatt was so excited all day for the fireworks. He enjoyed them for about 10 minutes and then after that he was done paying attention. It was a pretty good firework show though.




This was Chamberlain most of the night


We hardly ever get pictures of just us anymore



On Sunday we were able to bless Chamberlain. Jordan did such a great job and gave such a beautiful blessing. I am so proud of him and the Priesthood he holds so that he is able to do it. He's such a great man and I love him so much! Chamberlain did so good during the blessing too.


A little family snapshot

Sunday night a bunch of families in our ward got together to do snowcones and fireworks. There were a lot of people there. We made our way up the street and joined in on the festivities. Wyatt loved the fireworks the night before so we thought he would love them again....ya not so much. We were sitting right in the front and they fireworks scared him this time. I think it was just because we were so close and they were so loud. You know...the annoying high pitch whistling and crackling. Anyway, he kept saying "Wyatt scared!" and started crying, so I took him to the back and held him and he did just fine then. But I still think he had a good time. He liked the sparklers thought. He kept saying, "Sparklies". Again, Chamberlain just slept.


We covered Chamberlains ears with one of Jordan's sweat bands. It looked so cute on him and it worked. He hardly flinched during the fireworks.




They passed out some 3-D glasses and it made the fireworks really cool. Wyatt enjoyed it.

Hope you all had a wonderful 4th of July!!

Fun fun! You guys have the most beautiful family. I take it Chamberlain is an equally laid back baby as Wyatt was with all the sleeping and no fussing.
