Baptism Weekend

This past weekend was a very exciting weekend for all of us. Not only did Will get baptized yesterday, but he got to meet several more family members. His Uncle Tom, Aunt Meghan, and cousins Erin and Jeffrey drove up from VA for the special occasion. They were with us for Christmas but headed back to VA 5 days before Will's 6 week early arrival. His Uncle Jeff and cousin Rylie came from RI for the baptism. Sadly, his Aunt Robyn and cousin Avery had to stay behind in RI because cousin Avery has been sick with bronchitis. We missed having them here for Will's special day and they were certainly in our thoughts. Robyn's mom Diana also came along and got to meet out little man. Hopefully cousin Avery will be feeling better soon and then she can go to NJ next weekend and we can see them all again there. Prepare for picture overload...

Will's baptism was on Sunday at Katie's church. What made the event even more special was his outfit. The outfit he wore was the same outfit Bill wore when he was baptized 28 1/2 years ago. During the ceremony the minister took Will out into the congregation to introduce him to everyone. While he was walking with Will down the center aisle, Will decided it was the perfect time to spit up. The church carpet and the minister's sleeve got christened with Will's milk. After the church service the minister told us he has seen a lot of things over the years, but a baby spitting up during their baptism was a first. Will has made a good first impression at the church he will grow up at. After the baptism everyone came back to our house for a nice luncheon. Thanks to everyone who helped make this a special weekend for us!
