Gowns

Katelyn tried on both of our Christening gowns after her afternoon nap today.

In her mommy's:



In her daddy's that Bisia made 33 years ago:

Luncheon

We hosted a luncheon here at our house after the church service to celebrate Katelyn's baptism. (We also of course had to watch the first Colts game of the season!)

We had lots of yummy food (thanks again to everyone who brought food!) and yummy cake too!

Too bad that the Colts couldn't provide a win for the first game of the season.

Katelyn's Baptism

Katelyn was baptized at our church today. She did sooo well! She doesn't let us leave her in the nursery at church - cries hysterically - so I was terrified that she'd throw a fit the second I handed her to Pastor Mike. She didn't make a peep! Pastor Mike was so impressed and even commented to us after the service how well she did. Brendan did pretty well considering that he was sick the day before and still seemed a little bit under the weather. Plus, he wanted to go to his "church school" room and play with the tractors, but we were afraid that he'd spread his stomach bug around to the other kids.

Sitting

I think that these are the first pictures that I've been able to get of Katelyn sitting by herself. We try to keep the Boppy pillow behind her so she doesn't crash her head into the hardwood floors when she does topple over.

Caboose Ride

We took a trip up to the Indiana Transportation Museum to see the trains and ride on a real caboose. Brendan had a great time looking at all the "train cars". We had a picnic lunch in Forest Park and then had our turn to ride on the cabooses. Katelyn enjoyed a good nap in the Bjorn during the train ride.

Are you ready for some football?!?

We braved the first IU football game with both kids. It was a 7:30pm game on a Thursday night. Ugh! We ended up leaving after halftime with some tired kiddos, but really they did pretty well.
