Zandy man's Baptism

 


We had a beautiful day yesterday. Alexander's baptism was so special. I'm so thankful for the people who traveled near and far to celebrate with us! Corey and Anne-thanks for coming even after a difficult moving weekend. Linda and Ken-thanks for waking up super early and braving Taledega weekend traffic. Kaitie-thanks for taking great pictures and figuring out a way to be here. Mom and dad-thanks for making the trip (again!) and helping with the food. Molly and Nate-thanks for representing Old Cahaba! We filled up a pew at church and had a great time barbequeing afterwards at our house. My friend Sarah made a beautiful cake for the occasion with Alexander's name and a sheep. What a wonderful day!

Corey's OTS Graduation!



What a joy it was to see my brother become a 2nd Lt. in the US Air Force! I was so proud. It was Alexander's first time staying in a hotel and foregoing all crib naps! He was awesome. That 3 month mark really is golden...Here are some pictures of visits with my friend Mary and my mom-in-law plus Corey's OTS graduation.

Alexander's First Easter

Today was a special day. Today was Alexander's very first celebration of the resurrection of Jesus! He wore a special outfit, received various gifts and cards, and went to an Easter service at church. (He made it through roughly three songs and the benediction. ;) Side note: next week is his first try in the nursery! He also went with us to our friends' house (Molly and Nate's) for a delicious lunch. Here are some pics! I hope you all had a joy filled Easter, too!

Justin to the Rescue

Last night I got violently ill--I have NEVER been this sick before. Honestly, Justin felt worse for me than when I gave birth (and I would have rather given birth again than have this bug!). So Justin stayed home today and took care of the baby and me. I felt so weak all day, but I was able to keep down some soup and ginger ale. Justin just went to the store to get some Gatorade, jello, and more ginger ale. The check-out lady said, "Oh, no! Is someone sick?" ;) So far Justin and Alexander have escaped the horrors...Thank goodness the worst appears to be over.
