Baby Taft’s Blessing Day

Our little guy had his big day today!  He looked so sweet (and very much like his big brother) in his blessing outfit.  We were blessed to have almost our whole extended family there with us.  Thanks so much for coming all the way out here!!  I am so grateful to have a husband who honors his priesthood and could bless our little boy.  He gave a beautiful blessing, and little Taft was so good during it!

Family Pics... Aren’t we so cute?!

Tyler’s parents hired a lady to take pictures of the Garretts, and while she was there, she took pics of all our individual families as well. It was a great opportunity to get a picture of us with our newest addition... Thank you Mom and Dad Garrett!!! I’m so excited about these pictures; We all look terrific! Take a look!

No babies were harmed in the taking of these photos:

Tyler and I have been talking about trying to get some good pictures of the boys so we can update the pictures hanging throughout our house. The other day I told him I thought it would be cute to get a pic. of Brigham standing, holding Taft. Tyler was mortified by the idea of our 2 year old holding our 2 month old and would not be comforted, even when I told him I would be right there ready to catch the baby, should he be dropped. So, I decided to try it out the next day when Tyler was at work, and it turned out so great! I got some fun pictures of the boys and they had a blast! I just hope Brigham doesn’t think he can always hold the baby like that!

Happy Father’s Day!

Happy Father’s Day to my Dad, Father-in-law, and my sweet husband! You are an amazing daddy to our boys... I couldn’t ask for more! I’m so proud of our gift to Tyler this year; it turned out so cute! I took pictures of the boys holding letters spelling out “DAD” and framed them for Tyler’s desk at work. I just had to post it and show it off!

Happy Baby Taft

While I was staying at my mom’s house for a few days I managed to take these adorable pictures of Sweet Pea in the bath. When he first gave me a smile, I dove for my camera (which was thankfully nearby). I managed to take a great picture of his sweet smile, but he didn’t stop there! I was shocked when he continued to grin at me. I took picture after picture while he smiled away. It was amazing! Brigham never posed for pictures that young; I didn’t get a decent picture of Brigham until he was two years old. I’m serious!!
