This picture was taken the morning of Nathanael’s blessing day.  Here he is preparing for his shower.  Don’t you just love the shower cap? 

Nathanael grew so big, so quickly that he outgrew the boy blessing outfit we had from the last two boys.  We tried it on him the night before the blessing and it wouldn’t button up properly.  So we don’t have any formal pictures of him on the big day. 

I was so busy that I didn’t even get another picture of him on this day.  Which I am really sad about.  But, at least we have this one!  It is a beauty!

On a more serious note, I am so grateful to have Nathanael.  He is a really peaceful and wonderful baby.  He is so patient with me.  I love his smile.  It warms my heart every time I see him smile.  I almost got him to laugh the other day.  I am looking forward to all his fun milestones, and hopefully I will get time to take pictures of them!
