Blessing Dress Pictures

 I took my sister in-law's advice and dressed Mirra up in her blessing dress for pictures now that she can sit up.  She has been sitting up since her 5 month birthday.  These pictures are on our deck in our backyard.



 This is probably my favorite picture.  At home her nickname is princess.  How fitting her tiara is.                     

Here is the full dress.  Isn't it beautiful?  Thanks Becky!!!!


 Mirra's eyes are so bright and big and beautiful.  They are starting to turn from a deep blue gray to a brown.  Just like all the other kids.















Mirra loves to rock back and forth when sitting up or on our lap.  She has started to grab things a lot and she is very interested in my spoon when eating.  She will squawk at me until I place it in her mouth.  She loves to have you look in her eyes and talk to her.  I still swaddle her tight, but I think she will be done with that soon.  She is the most slobbery kid I have ever seen.  I go through many bibs a day.  There are no teeth in sight, but the slobber keeps on coming.  I think I am doing more laundry for her than I did with my other kids.  What a cute little girl we are blessed with.

What beautiful pictures...and such a great idea to get those. I LOVE that second to last picture that has her profile in it. It is just SO Mirra! She is one beautiful little girl. (Definitely her mommy's little girl!)

Oh, my goodness what a treasure. Her nickname is very fitting. She just lights up your world, I'm sure. We miss you all so much. I'm going to get this Skype audio figured out so we can do it more often. I was fun to see Jett, light up when he recognized us on the screen.
