Davis' Baptism: October 25, 2009

We had a wonderful weekend to celebrate Davis' baptism on October 25th. It was definitely cool and fall-like. We had lots of friends and family join us to witness as we welcomed Davis into God's family (officially!). Poor little guy was fighting some nastiness (spiking fevers, first tooth, etc.), but he tried so hard to be a good sport. He cried just a little, but I suppose to most observers he was really good...he was just fussy for 'him'. :)

A special thank you to Mimi for his beautiful christening outfit. It was a perfect fit-- and not too 'frou-frou' (per Daddy's request!). She embroidered a beautiful cross on the front of the pantsuit, and again on the back of the jacket. The pocket of the jacket had his monogram on it. So much time, love, and effort went into it, and we certainly appreciate, admire, and adore her for such a gift!

Aunt Sarah flew in from Brooklyn a day earlier than everyone else so that she could meet Davis and spend time with her favorite girl(s): Kate and Lauren, of course! Notice that Lauren has her hot little hands on Sarah's iPhone. She thinks it's her personal photo/movie player. LOVES it. When Davis first saw Sarah (we picked him up at school), he immediately started giggling like a madman, and just adored her. Of course, that's how we all feel about her, so I shouldn't be surprised! I just loved that he was so taken with her right away.

Thank you everyone for making the trip, joining us in the celebration, and being a part of our inner circle. We love you!
