This is our newest family member Aryiana Lynn. Pictures were taken at about a week old. We had her blessed by my husbands father (What a great man). The dress she is wearing was made by my aunt and mother when I was born. Yep, this is my blessing dress. Mind you that I was blessed when I was about 6 months old and somehow the dress fits my little one at a week old lol. The blanket she is laying on was made by my grandmother (my dads mom) just for the baby blessing. She did such a wonderful job. I can't wait to pass both of these items down to my daughter when she has her first baby girl.
Enjoy!
P.S. I am recovering from my c-section very well :D

Congratulations, very pretty baby and the gown and blanket also. What a treasure to hand down to your daughter. Take care not to overdue yourself.

What a beautiful baby and the dress and afghan is sooo beautiful too. Congratulations

How special to use this blessing dress. The dress is beautiful. When I made my daughters wedding dress I made sure I had extra fabric so I could make a blessing dress for our first granddaughter. Still no granddaughter, but I have made both my grandsons beautiful little blessings outfits with some of the material. I remember when my children had their blessings. It was quite an event since they are triplets.
Took up a good portion of the meeting just to get them done.

What an adorable little girl, and her dress is absolutely beautiful. Thanks for sharing.

She's so beautiful and so is her Blessing dress. So nice that the dress is a family treasure. May in Jersey

The dress and the baby are beautiful. She looks so alert for a week old. She doesn't want to miss any of the festivities!!!!!!!!! So precious.........

Miss those days as my grandchildren are all boys and now 6, 9, and 12. But I wouldn't part with any one of them. They are the love of my life.
