Oryn's Blessing
On Sunday, March 16, 2008 Oryn was blessed in Church. My Dad (Papa; Tom Hovan) was there to give the blessing, and everyone who participated was; Jake Roecker (brother-in law), Jeff Fyfe (a good friend of Scott and mine), Jason Green (a good friend of mine), and Gale Iwaasa (a good friend of the family) as well as Bishop Standing (8th Ward Bishop). The blessing was beautiful! Thanks Dad! My Mom (Gama; Sharon Hovan) made Oryn's dress. It was beautiful as well! Thanks Mom! Scott's Mom (Grandma; June Ully) as well as Scott's sister (Auntie Dainta; Daina Ully) came out to support Oryn. And I cannot forget my little sister (Auntie Di; Dian Hovan), my older sister (Auntie Pissy; Chrissy Roecker), and her three children (Liza Lu; Eliza Roecker, Danimal; Daniel Roecker, and Rain Man; Rainey Roecker) all came up from Logan, Utah. I am so greatful for all the love and support both our families show us.
After Church was over we had family to our house for dinner. Nothing fancy, just spaghetti. It was fun to watch all the kids interact. It is amazing at how well they get along for only seeing each other every couple of months. But, by the end of the day Makynna was tired and very grumpy. All in all it was a wonderful day!
As the week went on we got back into our routine...it is amazing at how a 3 month old knows what time it is! Oryn knows that at 7:45 pm she gets fed, at 8 pm it is bath time, after bath she gets a top up then usually by 8:45 pm she is in bed. Man, if you don't stick to the schedule, she will let you know. Scott came down with the flu on Wednesday, stayed home from work...something he never does, and has been sick all weekend. Last night I started to get the aches, chills, and a sore throat. This morning I woke up with no voice and felt like death. Makynna was super hyper today, which didn't help the pounding head ache but thankfully Oryn was in a good mood and slept most of the afternoon.
Yesterday I was able to catch Oryn being a little silly. Scott and I can't get over how serious she is. She's not an unhappy baby...just not smiley. She makes us work for the smiles and laughs we do get. She has this new thing with sticking out her tongue. It is wicked funny. We also had Oryn's three month check up yesterday. She weighed in at 12 lbs. 12 oz., and was 23" long. My big baby!
Makynna is Makynna. We went for a visit to Great Grandma Ully's on Monday. Makynna and Grandpa have fun playing with Great Grandma's wheelchair and walker all the time. We discovered how strong Makynna is. She pushed her Grandpa across the floor in the wheelchair with no problems. "What a bull!" as her Dad would say.
