So yesterday was Emily's baptism. She was so cute in her white dress, and actually quite in a good mood for the service. She sat quietly in Andrea's arms while the pastor talked and then was actually also sitting quietly in the pastor's arms...that is until the actual baptizing event. She wasn't so happy once she got water dumped on her head, which how can you blame her really? Apparently it was Reformation Sunday, during which the Presbyterian Church celebrates their roots in Scotland by having a bag piper play. The majority of the music though was not with the piper until the last song when we sang Amazing Grace with the bag pipe. It was beautiful!
After the service we went over to Jack's parents house to have lunch. Jack's friend and Emily's godfather Thomas and his family where there. Ava is Jack's goddaughter so we decided that Ava and Emily were godcousins, although I'm not sure that this is an actual relationship :) Ava was cracking us up with her stories. We definitely realized why you don't say anything around a 3 year old that you don't want told to anyone who feels like listening! She was hilarious!
We went home to play with the pupster and then headed back to Andrea and Jack's for dinner . The boys decided to make a fire in the back and the girls stayed inside with the baby and made fondue. While I'm a fan of fires, I think that chocolate fondue wins the contest :) At this point Emily decided that the day has been far too long and she was not in the mood for company so she was a bit cranky until the majority of the guest left. Then I guess she decided it was quite enough again to be social. So she hung out with me on the bouncy ball in her cute little Halloween sleeper :)
It was a fun little day. And I'll tell you those baby hormones are awfully strong - after a day of babies screaming and kids running around I was still sure I was in the mood for one of my own :)
