Stockton's Blessing

Stockton was blessed on Easter Sunday. It was such a special day. This was the first time we took Stockton to church. We had been waiting for him to get off his oxygen to be able to bless him but who knows how long that will take so we decided to just go ahead and do it since most all of our family was here. Ray gave Stockton the most beautiful blessing.....I love that he is able to do this, it is so neat to me to hear him give his sons a blessing.

Our handsome boy on his special day


His poor little cheeks are so red and irritated from the stickers that hold his oxygen in place

All of the handsome boys together

Mama wanted to get in on the action!

Family dinner





Stockton slept through the party

We appreciated all of our family and friends for being there with us for this special day.
We love you!!

We were sorry that we were out of town that day. He is getting so big, I'd squeeze his little cheeks if they weren't so red. Poor guy. The boys are getting so big, all of them

It was a great day! It was so fun being part of it and getting to visit with your family for lunch. Which, by the way, was awesome! You did so much work and made it such a neat day for everyone. You're such a great mom and wife, Hal!

Oh he looks so cute in his blessing outfit. We didnt get a very good look at him at church since I was stuck in the hall with my loud child. You sure do know how to throw a party!

It really was a great blessing. Ray does an awesome job and the blessing made me cry. I'm so glad you went ahead and blessed him. He is such a cutie in that white suit. And, yes...those cheeks are sure squeezable.

Sorry you didnt get your wish for him to be off oxygen. I cant believe all that you have had to go through with him. Hopefully things will turn around for you and your little guy.

Wow, I can't believe how big he has gotten since I last saw him. He is so sweet. What a special day. Maybe Stockton and Becky can have a big oxgen party. I hope they figure out how to get him off of it soon.
