We are home from our Alturas vacation. We had a lot of fun & enjoyed those who came!

Here are some Pictures from her Blessing Day!

Sandy's Blessing was on June 2, 2013. It was a fun day, and the blessing her daddy gave her was absolutely beautiful!! Thank you so much to all of those who were there with us and for those who couldn't make it here are some pictures!!! Here is Sandy with her Grandpa!!!

Here I am holding her! For some reason she really likes sitting really weird and bent over it doesn't look very comfy but she likes it...

 Here is our little family after everyone left!

 Here is our beautiful little Sandy being good while mommy has some fun with the camera!!

We will be blessing Sandy on June 2, 2013.  For anyone interested in coming it will be at the Paul Stake Center and Sacrament meeting starts at 10:45.  Then, right after church gets out at noon, we will be having a Potluck BBQ at our house, which is almost right next to the church.  So bring your favorite salad, jello or dessert.  If you think you might come let me know so I can get an idea of how many people are coming.  Thanks!!

Miss Sandy Dawn Gillette

Here is Sandy Dawn Gillette she joined us on April 29, 2013 at 8:55 a.m. She weighed in at 7 pounds and 4 ounces and was 20 inches long. A full head of long and dark brown hair, big blue eyes lined with long eye lashes and ten perfect fingers and toes. Everything went really well with the labor and delivery. We went in Sunday night and they told me I was ready to have a baby. I wasn't even feeling all of the contractions. By 1:30 though they were getting more painful so I got the epidural! What a wonderful thing that was!!! My doctor came around 3 a.m. and broke my water. It was a bit of a long night and I didn't sleep much but the couch was good for Damon and he slept pretty good. Around 7 they came and checked me again and said they were going to let me rest and descend and then I would push. At 8:20 they came and said that the baby was really close and it was time. After 35 minutes Sandy was here!!

 She has been a pretty calm baby from the beginning. This picture is right after they brought her back from bathing her. It was weird when they took her since I had been with her for the last 8 and a half months!

 This is us passing time in the recovery room.

 She was just wide awake.

 She was so tiny!!

 She is about a week old in these next pictures. I just love watching her facial expressions and listening to those cute little sounds she makes. And she really likes having her hands around or on her face and sometimes she just looks so dramatic when she gets those hands going.

 I love her beautiful smiles even though they aren't actually on purpose yet. I caught the end of a big smile in this one.

 This is a five generation picture. With my first baby, my moms first granddaughter, my grandma's first great-granddaughter, and my great-grandma's great-great-granddaughter. On the Lindsay side she is the 53rd great-grandchild. On the Gillette side she is the 13th grandchild. We are so blessed with so many wonderful family members.

 She likes tummy time for about five minutes and then she gets a bit frustrated.

 More hands up next to her face again. Sleeping peaceful.

 Here she is hanging out with her daddy. When she is upset, and her dad picks her up or plays with her she calms down.

 This picture was taken earlier today. She lost her umbilical cord this morning and then a little while later I was holding her and she peed and it leaked out of her diaper and all over the both of us. So I decided it was time to use the baby bath. She didn't know what to think about it she kept trying to lift her bum out of the water. But she didn't cry at all so that was good. But the bath must have wore her out because shortly after she fell asleep!

After her bath her hair really fluffed out. She is a very healthy baby, in the first week she gained a pound and grew 2 inches and at her 2 week weight check on Monday she weighed 8 pounds and 13 ounces. Also so everyone knows we will be blessing her the first Sunday in June which is the 2nd. And for anyone that might be interested in coming our Sacrament meeting starts at 10:45. Have a wonderful day everyone!!

Happy Birthday Trey and Taylee!!! I hope you guys have a great day!!! Love you guys :)
