Cubby's Big Day!

Picture 051
This past Sunday Cubby was blessed! It was an amazing experience that we were glad to share with some family--Of course Mo and Papa, Emily and Clark, Bob and Betty, and James' sister Nici (and her hubby and five children) from Austin. James did a beautiful job, and Cubby...he knew it was a special day. By all laws of nature he should have been out like a light for the whole thing. He lay wide awake for the entire blessing, not only looking right at James, but smiling! Then he conked as soon as they came and sat down. How silly I feel for trying to deny him his own special experience! It was all very special for James too--he simply said very humbly, "I bonded with our boy big time today."
Here are a couple of extra pics just for the sake of a visual update of said boy at 6 weeks:

Spence,
What EXACTLY are "handy downs"? You of ALL people (ahem...youngest of 7 kids) should know what HAND-ME-DOWNS are! But thanks for the chuckle. How are you?
