Baptism

Alice was baptized Dec. 13. We meet with our pastor prior to her being baptized to be reminded of what the signifance of this sacrement and go over our vows. I found baptism to have a much greater and deeper meaning when having my own child baptized!
Alice did great all day, except during pictures after the service which we woke her up for.

Jameson's Aunt Judy made this beautiful dress for Alice.

Jameson's parents, grandma, brother Austin, and Jordan's family came up on Saturday and spent the day with us. We celebrated Lydia's first birthday as well. Saturday afternoon we got to enjoyed a lot of piano playing and hymn singing with Jameson's grandma (while Jordan's family was swimming at the hotel).


My parents, brother, and grandma came up Sunday morning and then stayed for the afternoon.


Alice and her 2 grandmas.

Our friends Loren, Scott, and Lia also came to here baptism. It was nice to have so many people sharing in this memorable day with us.

My mom made this beautiful cake to have as part of our weekly fellowship lunch at church after her baptism.

Facial Expressions

Alice is now making all kinds of facial expressions. I got a few good ones and sent them to Jameson to let him know what his little girl was up to while he was at work.
Smiles! :)

Frusterated?

Her tongue, which is frequently sticking out or moving all around.

And of course, a big yawn!
