Morgan had a great idea that we should make a blanket for the baby so he will be warm when he comes. She then told me that she wanted a rainbow blanket. :) I thought that it would be fun for our family to tie a fleece blanket for the baby. Jackson helped me pick out the fabric at Joanns. Morgan & Jackson both wanted him to have a blanket with lots of balls all over it, but the only ball fabric I could find had ugly basketballs on them, so we decided on this cute polka dot fabric. For family home evening we had a lesson on families, and the importance of this baby coming, and then we all tied the blanket. The kids loved it & did really well at tying the strips together. Hallie just loved wrapping herself in the blanket. Now the kids are trying to decide if they want to give this blanket to the baby when he is born, or for Christmas.
