Three months and Baby Blessing

Well, my life is still so wonderful. The last three months have brought so many fun surprises. Calmly started smiling at around two months consistently. He would smile occasionally during sleep or randomly before two months but at two months he really started looking us in the eye and smiling intentionally. And now it's seem so easy for him to do. He seems like he loves it, smiling. I love it because in the last few days he has started to look over at me while he's eating, look up into my eyes, and smile. Sometimes he will even stop eating to look up at me and smile. Today he was smiling so much that I couldn't even feed him after 15 minutes or so, and I was sure he wanted more than that. But he was smiling too big then he wouldn't even latch on anymore. He has started to be a lot more expressive now too. He will sometimes stretch out his neck and stick out his chin, and it seems like he's doing it just to make me laugh. He also talks a lot more now too. And babbles and babbles. It's so cute! I love it. He's a hit wherever we go. People always say that he is such a sweet and cute baby, even if they didn't say that I would totally think it.

Joseph bless him on Sunday, and it was so sweet. Joseph is such a sweet priesthood holder. He is always worthy to do anything for us, and he takes it seriously when it comes. He is also humble and simple. He's not someone who is eloquent by talent. He's not really interested in using big words are beautiful language. But when it comes down to it, he is so sweet and so simple. He gave a really beautiful blessing about having a strong heart and strong desire to obey the Lord and a desire to get to know the Lord. He blessed him with a sweet sweet spirit throughout his life. When Joseph sat down he told me that he had forgotten one thing, to bless Conley with a natural affection for me, and respect for me as his mother, which I thought was so sweet! And I really hope and income he will have that. He is already quite affectionate, and I really feel like he is starting to get to know me. Everyone said he did months ago, but I wasn't so sure until recently. You wouldn't expect it to make somebody feel so good, having their own baby adore them. But it really does. It boosts my confidence and makes me feel so on top of the world.

My parents and Kayden And Trace and Landon even came to the blessing, and it made me feel so good and loved. Also Joseph's dad came into town for it last minute and Jessie and Mark came, and the Kearns, the Lakes, and Sam and Ryan. We felt so loved and supported, and so appreciative towards our friends and family.
