life gets in the way

There are so many things I want to get done on any given day, but everyday life always seems to interfere. So I try not to have very high expectations of what I plan to accomplish each day. If I keep my little one happy, empty, load, and run the dishwasher, pick the toys up, get dinner on the table, and maybe get a load of laundry done, then anything else I get done is icing on the cake, as far as I'm concerned!

All that to say, I meant to post the dedication pictures days ago, but like I said, other things got in the way. So here they are.

This is during the actual dedication. Up in front with us in the orange shirt is my friend, Alisa, who prayed for R and for us.

We didn't get any pictures at the church so we tried to take some when we got home. This one wasn't too bad, while Daddy was trying to figure out the right settings on the camera.

But by this one, she had had it and needed a nap! So no happy family picture like we had hoped.

After a nice, long nap she enjoyed playing outside with her cousins and friend, Kaden. Here she is in the leaves with Kaden.
