Dedicated

Well, Sam is now dedicated. It is honestly something we did when he was born, but now we have formally done it in front of the church and our family.

Sam is God's child, and we get the honor of raising him... and what a blessing he is to our family. He is incredibly happy, and I can't help but grin ear to ear everytime he looks at me. That's probably why I'm so tired - I get a workout everyday from smiling so much!!!!

Here are some of the pictures from the dedication...

Here we are before-hand - Sam was ADORABLE in his little white outfit (which, first of all, he didn't spit-up on, and second of all, is a 9 month size, and he was literally busting the buttons on - he's only 6 months old... whew... we barely made it with that outfit!!!)

This is where I was trying to keep him occupied while Dr. Merritt was talking! It was funny to listen around, because it was a baby/kid fest... everyone was NOT quiet and attentive!!!!!

This is dinner afterwards... Sam was tired and cranky due to lack of sleep, so what did we do? Let's let him try some lemon!!!! Yes, bless his little heart! Mommy let him try lemon!!!!! Not the best of ideas when your child is cranky and it's BEFORE the adults eat!!!!!
