Here are some more pictures from the kids being baptized. It was really a special time, with friends and family welcoming our wonderful kids into their family. Abram had been thinking about the situation for a while and on the way to church decided that he was a little scared. So he spent the whole time hiding, he hid under Mommy's arm, under her sweater, in the floor by the pew, and pretty much anywhere he could find. When it was finally our turn, he did much better than expected. He didn't cry or scream or anything. He just kept asking if he could go downstairs (the nursery where all of his friends were already playing). As soon as we got finished we headed downstairs and he was much happier.
Katie on the other hand, had no idea what was going on. She happily played in the pew, reading the hymnal and coloring on the envelopes. When it was time to go up, she happily rode in Daddy's arms. When Pastor Yates put the water on her head, she just looked at him. Then when he finished, she was her cute self watching her brother and smiling at the congregation.
We were so lucky that so many of our family were able to come and give their support.
