After many months of prayer and consideration, Patrick and I decided to have our children baptized. We grew up in a tradition that did not do this, so I had to read about infant baptism and Patrick decided that it was best for our family. At first, this was an issue I just had to trust him on, but now I am fully convinced that it is the best choice. Saige was a baby when all of this was going on, and since we had changed churches she was never baptized as an infant. So the girls were baptized together this weekend. I took pictures of them before we left and I am so glad we did because Saige had a rough time. She cried the entire time we were on stage... I was a little embarrassed but what are you going to do, right? Meadow did great - calm as usual. Well, Saige ended up having a reason for her behavior. After lunch when we got home, I took her temperature and it was 102.4! Poor thing! I felt so bad... I sure hope she doesn't get really sick again. We are praying it goes away soon and that she recovers quickly. Enjoy the pictures... aren't they so adorable in their smocked dresses? I love them!


Beautiful little girls !!!
ReplyDeleteThe dresses are so pretty and dainty. I have a friend that smocks and has offered to teach me ... maybe when I get some free time :o)
The pictures are wonderful and a great one of you and Patrick. You would never know it was a rough day. You both look so happy.

Thanks Brenda! We were happy, but I think we looked especially happy because we were both laughing at the fact that Saige was such a mess! :) But it will be a good memory.... :)
ReplyDeleteCheryl, Your girls are beautiful. 29 more days of school...we'll have to have some play dates soon!! I hope Saige is feeling better. Kasey
ReplyDeleteHow did you decide to have your girls baptized? Our church doesn't do this either... but I am interested to know about it more. I found your blog from a friends blog and I enjoy reading it. I have two small boys! They grow so fast!
