Baptized in Christ

Father's Day was a very special day around here. We baptized Lillian Jeanne surrounded by our church community, family and friends. Lilly is very lucky to have her Uncle Petey as her Godfather, and her Aunt Chelsea as her Godmother. Lilly wore the same baptismal gown that Cecilia wore. Lilly is baby #53 to wear the gown on their baptismal day. The hankie on her head was my grandma's (Jeanne) wedding hankie. It was added to the ensemble with Cecilia, and it completes the gown perfectly.






Jon rode in the back of the car with Lilly on the way home (just in case she threw-up) and she gave him her first smiles. She was being a little ham. I guess the combination of it being Father's Day and her being baptized made her smiley. She continued with the smiles when we got home, and Ma captured the first one on pixels.



We celebrated Lilly's baptism and Father's Day with brunch at our home. It was a beautiful day, and Lilly was happy to be passed around to anyone that would hold her and let her sleep.
