Andrew's Baptism

Andrew finally had his big day with Aunt Laurie as his godmother and Uncle Tye as his godfather (Uncle Crispin stood in- thank you!). Andrew had a very personal ceremony as he was the only one being baptized that day. He was all smiles of course and didn't even flinch at having the water poured over his head. The girls were all running around of course and Caroline had strep throat but other than that, all went very well!

Happy 4th Birthday Caroline!!

Four years old already -- finally as Caroline would say as she has been waiting for her next birthday for a whole year now. She is surely going to start asking when she will turn five-- probably within the next week! She had a great day as she celebrated at preschool in the morning where they sang to the birthday kids at chapel and she told the teacher she was FOUR and not five (as the other kids birthdays were 5 year olds!) and she enjoyed making her cake with Mommy and then opening her presents. She also had an "Under the Sea" birthday party with all of her friends at our house. The weather was beautiful -- sunny and 75 degrees. We played "pin the tail on the mermaid" and had a fish pinata. We all had a great time and I think this mommy is glad that she won't be five for a whole other year!
