Stella is now forever our little girl. I can't wait to be with her for eternity.
As I mentioned in my previous post, we had our sealing to Stella in the Temple on January 31st and then Cameron blessed her in our sacrament meeting on February 1st - which we picked as her blessing date because it was also Cameron's mom's birthday. So, we thought that would be neat since she is Stella's namesake.
The sealing was so neat. We got there and my mom was Stella's escort in the Temple. So, she took her in the nursery there and got her dressed. She wore my dress and slip from when I was a baby, little white shoes, and a headband that was a tiara. She looked just like a little princess. It was perfect for the occasion. It was a really neat experience for us - they let me dress in the bride's room and treated me just like it was my own sealing, which I wasn't expecting! It reminded me of when we got married. Then we all met in the sealing room where our family and close friends were waiting and my mom brought Stella in to us - and then we were all sealed together. It went just perfectly and she acted like a little angel the whole time.
After the sealing we took some pictures and then went to eat at Tia Rosa's for dinner which was great.
The blessing went equally as well. She didn't make a peep the whole time during the blessing...I was a little worried since usually they are blessed around 6 weeks of age, and she is eight months! I thought she might yell or scream or something! Cameron gave her the most beautiful blessing. It was so special and so fitting.
After that we came to our house for some refreshments and it was great to visit with everyone.
Thanks to everyone who came and supported us all weekend...it was so special for us...a couple of days we'll never forget.
