Getting Baptized

Cal got baptized today, Sunday, January 17th. It was such a special day and one I will always remember. He was wonderful during the service and during the baptism too. I was such a proud momma and beaming the entire time. I just feel so BLESSED to have this amazing baby and family. There are a bunch of pictures (and a video) on the mobile me page, so check that out if you want to see more than this....




My mom, AKA Martha Stewart, made his outfit for the day. We were going to do a gown, but he is just such a boy that we had to put him in a romper. I really wanted to do a gown though and put the monogram on it and have all of our kids wear it. Oh well.... thankfully, I have an incredible mother who is willing to make more! She did such a great job and I don't think I could have picked out a better outfit in any store! It was PERFECT!

We are exhausted tonight after an action-packed weekend. Maybe Cal will sleep through the night tonight...???

PS-- for those wondering, my whole "not feeding him in the night" thing is working... he got up once last night at 4. I put the paci in and then brought him in with me at 5 and he slept until 7:45. I just have to cut out him waking up until morning.... I will post more on that later!

Baptism Pre-Party

Cal got baptized this weekend, so we wanted to have a pre-party on Saturday afternoon. We had it over at my parents house, where there is a big side yard so the kids could run and run and run and play. It was a fun afternoon, and I think everyone had a great time! Thank goodness the weather cooperated! It has been sooooo cold here, and on Saturday, it was around 60 (then got colder as the day wore on....). Here are a few of the pictures from the day:

The kids running in the yard. They were obsessed with the Corn Hole we set up for the adults to play.
More running and running!

4 MONTHS OLD!!!

On Saturday, the 16th, Cal turned FOUR months old! Hard to believe it's already been 4 months. Every parents says this, but it seriously feels like he has been in my life forever, and at the same time, 4 months sounds so short, but so old....does that make sense?? Having a 4 month old baby sounds so old, but so little too! Here is his 4 month shot:
