Gavin's Special Day

On Gavin's 4-month birthday, we had a very special event - Gavin's baptism! We spent the day celebrating with family. Gavin slept through much of the service, and only opened his eyes a few moments after the water was poured over his little bald(ish) head. He never made a peep! We all went out together afterward to celebrate over dinner and dessert. It was a really special day.
We got to spend some extra time with the Harding family over that weekend, since they had driven in from Indiana and stayed overnight with us. We had all sorts of fun! The kids got lots of playtime with their cousins, Kelsey and Ethan. We built train tracks in the rec room, spent time at the beach at Gillson Park, went out for ice cream that evening and pancakes the next morning (yummmm!). We also chatted about our mutual love for the Cubs and had the games on throughout the weekend. It was a wonderful visit!
