Yesterday we were fortunate to be able to publicly dedicate our little girl to the Lord. This was a chance for us to commit to raising her in the ways of the Lord and to set a Godly example for her. It was also a chance for the people of our church to vow to help in that endeavor as well...as teachers, caregivers, coaches, etc. David and I have looked forward to this day since we found out we were pregnant and our pastor and church were so sweet to allow us to go ahead and dedicate her while David's parents were still in town. They left this morning to head back to Guatemala, so we made it just in time! :)
Here we are getting ready. Norah Kate wore my grandfather's christening gown...what a privilege. This gown is about 90 years old!
I love this picture of her yawning! Sweet!
Our pastor, Bro. Danny read from Psalm 127 which reminded us that children are a heritage & reward from God.
Family pic - too bad you can't see our sleeping baby! :)

I LOVE THIS PICTURE - My sister caught her smiling!
Norah Kate is really coming along - we are having a great time watching her grow. She is eating about every 3 hours during the day, and sleeps anywhere from 2-5 hours between feedings during the night. Her schedule has become more predictable all the way around, so that has made things easier for us. She loves riding in the car and in her stroller, and has done a great job on the outings we have taken. We look forward to her upcoming milestones! She also welcomed a new friend, Addilyn Johnston last week!

These pictures remind me so much of Adelyn's dedication! We have pictures of her yawning in church too! Ha! Norah's dedication gown, wow, so much history behind it. And it was beautiful too! Love your friend's daughter's name! :)
