These four sweet baby cousins (in birth order Zeb, John, Luke and Elliot) were all dedicated this past Father's Day together at our home church here in Seattle. We had a huge afternoon of celebrating at Grandpa and Grandma Gough's house afterwards and sang rounds of happy birthdays to John and Simon too...played, ate yummy food, dodged the rain and even some thunder, broke a pinata and reveled in the deep blessing of family and friends! It was truly so special to stand side by side in front of the church that we have all been apart of for well over a decade and present our children into their arms to help us raise them up in the love of Jesus. It was a truly marvelous way to spend Father's Day!
Such a fun and memorable time! My sister in law Rachel posted a bit more about the day on her blog too in case you need another cute baby fix. :)
And here is our sweet Zeb on his dedication day (giving me his signature tongue) - such a gift to our family you are my littlest one!
What a special day - and great pics - I am so impressed you got one of all those cute babies sitting still and (just about) all looking at the camera! Special memories!

I love Honest diapers. I have used them from the very beginning, once I switched to other brand for the price but it did not have stretch tabs, my son was between size 3 and 4 so the extra room would cause leakage. Honest diapers were just right and the flex tabs are comfortable for crawling and movement.
