Catherine and Stephen's Baptisms

As most of you know, it was our plan to get Catherine baptised Sunday. We went to meet with our Pastor (Jason) last week to discuss what infant baptism means and how the ceremony was to go. While we were there, he asked what our intentions were as far as baptisms and membership. Although we had been visting St. Luke for a while and my parents are members, we had not yet joined the church. I was baptised at St. Luke when I was in middle school, but Stephen had never been baptised. So we decided that Stephen and Cat would be baptised together and that we would all become members of St. Luke.

So yesterday was a very special day for all of us. The baptism ceremony was beautiful. Catherine did very well. She went right to Jason and didn't seem to mind the water being put on her head. She even waved at the congregation when Jason walked her up and down the ailse to show her off! Stephen behaved too :) Here are some pictures from the special day - there are a lot, but they were all so good! We also videotaped it, but I am still editing the video! I will post it soon! Enjoy!

Mommy is Getting Brave - a video of Cat!!

So mommy has gotten brave and decided to try to post a video! It is an adorable video of me and Daddy playing with rice. I don't do much talking because I am really focused on the rice!! This was my first time playing with rice and it was a blast! If this works, Mommy will post some videos of me talking

A Weekend at Home

Since Mommy is still recovering from her hospital stay and we had no plans for the weekend, we decided to stay at home and just hang out. We enjoyed her weekend at home!

I love singing the "Itsy Bisty Spider" - this is "washed the spider out"

I am into textures and pouring. Here I am playing with Lima beans

We played outside on Sunday morning - I am trying to blow bubbles. I needed a little help from Mommy, though!

Mommy made me homemade popsicles - apple juice flavored! YUMMMMM!

When it got too hot outside, we played with rice! Sooo much fun!

Daddy joined in to teach me about gravity!

What a great weekend!

My Week with Daddy

My mommy was in the hospital for a week, so Daddy took off work to play with me! We had so much fun! Here are some pictures (yes, I fell and busted my eye, so it is in various stages of healing in these pictures):

We went to Gymboree

We rode on the carousel at the mall

We hung out at home:

And we visited Mommy at the hospital -twice!!
