Clara's Blessing Day

Last Sunday Kelly blessed Clara. Kelly did a nice job. In the blessing he felt impressed to bless her with a sense of humor that will help her through trials and to enjoy life. I think she will. Aunt Non was nice to let us have a party over at her place and worked really hard to get the yard and house looking really nice for us. The first photo is her waiting to get dressed and looking bored Kelly took it. She looked gorgeous and was so nice during the prayer. I was so scared that she would cry though the whole thing and I wouldn't be able to hear the blessing but the Lord was kind.

Clara and Me

This is after the funny photo shoot at the beach on saturday.

Ableskivers

These are what we Hatfield's call Ableskivers. They are balls of Danish pancake goodness! You can fill them with apples or other fruit but we prefer to just put maple syrup on them and gobble them up. Grandma Dorothy would make them for us when we would come to visit.

Little Bundles

This represents from about 10 o'clock at night till about 3:30 in the afternoon worth of dipers. At first they don't smell but start to when they have sat out for about 24 hours. They say the older they get the fewer dipers they go through.

It's what's for dinner

This is what Kelly and I had for dinner tonight. Lettuce, Summer Squash, Milk, and Steak. Look and that hunk of meat! I didn't even eat half of it. We have a lot of left-overs. Not that they are really very good but I had forgotten how much fun it was to take photos of things other then Clara.

Changing

So yesterday we put her down for a nap and two hours later I pick her up and she was heavier and she looked bigger. I think it is amazing so I took more photos today! I love her!

Quiet Time

You can definitely tell what I like to take photos of. Of Course it is expected that the doting mother would be sure to make everyone look at as many photos of her darling girl as she could.

Baby Clara is here!!!

This is our new baby girl named Clara Anderson! We all love her so much. She was born on the 15th of June at 8:42 a.m. 2007. Everybody was just amazed with the amout of blond hair. People normally see that much hair with dark haired babies but never with blond! We think she gets it from her Dad!

Baby Showers

In the last three weeks I have had two baby showers! The frist was a combined shower with my sister Lib. It was held down in Salt Lake by my sister-in-law Brandy. The second was with my buncho group at Tasha Williams house. It was so fun and Katy Rowlings made me this diper cake! I think it is so cute! Thanks to all who put time, efffort and money into helping Kelly and I get ready for out baby girl. Love you all and am so greatful.

Temple Day

We had a very happy day at the Temple on Saturday the 26th! My whole family was there. James is going on a mission to Peru so he received his endowment and Lib, Mike and Jack were sealed! Happy Happy Day! I love the temple, I love my family, I love the gospel! Congrats to James for his wonderful choice to make covenants! Congrats to Mike and Lib to be sealed to each other and to Jack. Congrats to my parents for there dedication and hard work that set the example for us all.

Zion

At Zion the family was all together. The first time in a long time. Zion was beautiful and we had a very enjoyable time. Kelly took the photo of me. I am 30 weeks along.

Office Supplies

Yesterday I took some photos at work.

Martin Luther King Jr. Day

Two Christmas's ago my sister Lauren and I searched all over for a swedish waffle maker for my mom. Mom wanted Lauren and I to be there when she tried it out so Mom, Dad, Lauren, and baby James came up to visit me. We went out to lunch at Butterburs and then spent the rest of the time making Krumcaka! It was fun and the waffles were a big success! Thanks for a fun day!

New Arrival

Not another photo this time. Sorry about that. I do have some news though. Kelly and I are expecting a baby in mid-June. I am really excited! Anyway, I should have a camera by Christmas!! I am really excited for that too!

New Job

Sorry no photo, but I thought I should make an update on of the things that have been happening. First of all, I was called to be the 2nd councilor in the Young Women's. It has been fun so far and I seem to fit in because all the girls think I am sixteen and a Laurel. And for number two for the past two weeks I have been working a part time job at Great Harvest. It has been fun and Kelly and I have been enjoying the free bread but I just go a job offer at Washington Savings and Loan. Which means more pay and.... I will be much much closer to buying a digital camera!!! Hurrah for me!

Elizabeth's Bridals

On Saturday Kelly and I went down to Salt Lake for Lib's shower and bridals. We also had a big dinner and Family Home Evening with the family on Sunday that was so fun. (Kelly just said "It was fun!") This image was one of my favorite, but there are lots for her to choose from. You are gorgeous Lib!

Elizabeth and Mike

Lib is getting married on the 9th of September! We are so happy for them. We took some engaments and they turned out great!

Baby James Again

Since so many of the photos last time were out of focus (I was getting to close) Lauren and I decided to take some more. He is getting bigger and cuter every day.
