Keller's Baptism






Keller's Baptism brought Nonni and Nonno down to SB for another visit. We love having them here. They are very good at completing some of the day to day tasks that Little J and I start to dread...feeding Keller and the mess that ensues, the nightly bedtime ritual of arguing whether or not Vera's light stays on or off, and even playing with dolls over and over. The kiddos love having a fresh audience for their antics and we love having a break from the routine. J and I got to go to TJ's by ourselves and pick out wine and other fun food items. It was so nice having time to peruse the selection and actually have time to think about what we would like to drink. When I shop with two kids it is all about grab and go.

But, back to the baptism. CC and Adam are Keller's godparents and so they along with a few family members were on hand for the event. Keller's little white faux tux was pretty darn cute on him and he put up with the bonnet (and the Amish jokes) fairly well. I did have to bribe the little guy with puff cereal during the ceremony...at an hour in length it pushed him to the limit on being held and not being alloweed to crawl and destroy at will.

Those pics are absolutely adorable!

I'm so glad some of the 300some pictures I took came out :-) And you looked great! I think the bonnet was a bit silly, but it gave the little man something to chew on. And Vera was so well behaved!

Nana and I were just enjoying your baptism photos. Adorable! Keller is one big boy - we may finally have our family NBA star!
