Little J is official

We finally managed to bless John Hyrum in church yesterday and it was such a special day. I'm still in shock that he was quiet and happy throughout the entire blessing, even though he was probably miserable in his little outfit that barely fit him (I bought it before he was born thinking we'd bless him in Jan or Feb, thank goodness it ran big for 0-3 months!). It was so much fun to have lots of family and friends there and his little cousin Josh was also blessed at the same time since it was easier to just get all the Crofts clan together once.

Big John gave a beautiful blessing and we were lucky to have so many wonderful people there to participate--we even had two great-grandpas in wheelchairs!
My Dad is usually busy with church stuff on Sundays so we were so lucky to have him there!
These guys are only 2 days apart, though little J's a chunky monkey compared to Josh!
We had a fun gathering with everyone afterward--if we think it's busy getting together now just wait until these three little boys are running around!
Little J is so lucky to have such wonderful great-grandparents!
Last time we saw cousin Tommy he was HUGE compared to J, but I think our little dude is going to catch up quick!

Thanks everyone for such a wonderful weekend, we love you!!!

Love the blessing day. Dad is sweating bullets, mom is terrifed of any mustard colored blow-outs in the whiteness. Yes it rocks...... of course it's awesome though on a spiritual note:) Court! Great job feeding him! Little J is huge! He's grown up so much. What a cutie.

He's already SO much bigger than at the baby shower!!! I love the Big and Little additions to their names- probably forever! I wish I could just mush up those cheeks of his!
