Pony Ride

Molly really enjoyed this pony ride! She has come a long way over the last year. This is the first animal she has touched. Last year at the pumpkin patch she cried and screamed the entire time we were there, because she was terrified of ALL of the animals. Not anymore!!! She was so brave and loved every second of this ride. During the pony ride she kept saying, "look at me Jack, I'm having fun" and "Yee-Haw!" Then today, she actually pet the neighbors dog and let it lick her hand. Woo-hoo Miss Molly!!

Look what I found...

I walked in Luke's room after his nap and I saw his two little eyes peeking at me over the crib. He was so happy to see me!

Check out his hair!!!!!

Thumbsucker

Luke has found his thumb. He likes to do this after he fills up on milk. So sweet.

Luke's Baptism

On Sunday, our little Luke was Baptized at our church. Luke is a lucky boy. Aunt Maggie flew in from Cleveland and our good friend Wade flew in from Houston. Maggie and Wade were asked by Aaron and myself to be Luke's godparents. We love Maggie and Wade and we know that we chose two wonderful people for Luke. Thank you Maggie and Wade for loving Luke and for graciously accepting.

Luke wore a family baptismal gown that is very special to my mom and her family. This gown has been in our family for over 96 years! It is absolutely beautiful and still in impeccable condition. All of my cousins and my siblings were baptized in this gown. Jack and Molly also wore this gown along with their cousins.

Luke liked Father John and the Holy Water!

Aunt Maggie, Wade and Luke

Our little guy was so happy and was checking everything out.

He was extremely fascinated by his baptismal candle. Could not stop staring.

So cute.

Proud parents and Godparents.

I overheard my 5 year old niece talking to Luke. Sara said, "today is your Baptism, Luke, and we get to welcome you to the church." Children are miracles from God and they amaze me everyday!
