THE TRAVELING GARDNERS

The Sunday before we left for our vacation, we had Zach's baby blessing and Dan's Welcome Home party. Normally, baby blessings are done when the baby is first born. But you know us, we are anything but normal! ;) So when Dan returned back from Iraq, Zachary at 4 1/2 months was blessed at our church. Dan gave him a beautiful blessing. I love our little family. And I am so grateful for our friends who were a support to us for this special occasion. The delicious ice cream cake!!! YUMMM! Happy boy! - Thanks Heather for holding him. :) Serious Zachy striking a handsome pose ~ Ben, Brycen, and Kael ~ (Amber how did I not get a pic of you?)

"Do you mind? I'm doing my baby pilates?" Baby Shrek in the house! "I'm on the edge of my seat. Do tell me more!" "Oh my gosh! You have got to be kidding me." "Be honest........which pose do you like best? This way, or that way?" "Girl, you so crazy." Zachy melts our heart every day. He is such a sweetheart. Big brother LOVES him so much. And we just can't get enough of him. It's hard to believe little Zachy isn't so little anymore. He will be 5 months old on the 12th of this month! The true question is..........what color will his hair be?????? Thanks to the greatest friends ever, The Holdaway family for letting us temporarily use their BUMBO seat! Zach loves it. It helps me get housework done while keeping Zach entertained. :)
