Dylan's Baptism Day!

What a fun day of celebrations...

Dylan after his baptism with Mom, Dad, and John (one of his God parents).


Our family pitcure.

They boys were all watching a movie on the portable DVD player-too cute!


Dylan & Mady playing together.

It was Noah's 3rd Birthday today, so we had to sing him Happy Birthday. All the kids enjoyed this and had ice cream with sprinkles. They were thrilled.


Dylan was SO tired after his long day-he fell asleep in Daddy's arms. Check out all those rolls!

As we were getting in the car to head to the church, it starting pouring rain-not just a little, A LOT. Once we sat down in the pew at church there was some very loud thunder. God was making his presence known on this special occassion. The Deacon doing the baptism said that the oil he put on Dylan's had was to last until confirmation, then when he was putting it on him and blessing him, he said, He needs an extra dose!". Gee, does that mean we are going to have our hands full in the years to come or was it because he doesn't recognize us from mass every Sunday??? We pulled out a new Shark book for Connor to take with us in hopes to entertain him-it worked, he enjoyed reading it throughout the service with Cheryl for most of the time-although we need to work on whispering. He tends to get quite excited. And Dylan was great the entire time, he enjoyed looking around at all the people.

After the baptism, we had our friends over for a late lunch/early dinner-it was fun & all the kids had fun playing together even though none of them had a taken a nap. We were all quite amazed they played so well together.

We were happy to have our wonderful friends to share this special day with. We wish that Amy (Dylan's other God parent) was able to make along with all of our family.
