Jude's Baptisim

This last weekend was really nice- a little crazy, but really nice. Jude had his baptisim on Sunday, and all of the family traveled to be here for it (both Grandmas and Grandpas, Great Grandma, Aunt Shelley and Amy, Uncle Jeff, and the kids Garrett, Aislinn, and Malia). And for a while they were all in our small condo! But, as hectic as it was, it was such a great weekend for Jude and for me. The weather was a little cool, so we couldn't have the party at the park like I wanted, but thankfully Mel and Bucky came to the rescue and let us have the crazy crew at their house. Uncle Qadree and Troy came to be part of the festivities as well! It just shows how much that Jude is loved. We plan on buying Mel and Bucky a new couch, rug and paint, as they probably have Cheeto and chocolate cake finger prints everywhere. I think we may have to re-finish their floor too, because I don't think Malia and Garrett stopped running in circles and they may have worn in a path. The baptisim itself was good as well- Jude slept through the first half of it (after blowing bubbles with his lips during mass before), but woke up in time to have the water poured on his head. He was pretty cute and reached back to touch his head trying to figure out what was going on. Next... on to Malia and Aislinn's baptisim in a few weeks.

I added a few new pictures: Jude with his godparents before the baptisim (he is so lucky to have them), Jude asleep in my arms during the baptisim (he was just so comfortable wrapped in the blanket Grandma Anderson made for him - it even has some lace from her wedding gown!), Jude in his new hat from the Gap (isn't he already stylish - just like his father), and Jude posing like Miley Cyrus (Jude felt bad for Miley and wanted to show her that he supports her and doesn't think that there is anything wrong with showing a little skin).
