Madison's Baptism

Sunday morning we had Madison baptized!  What a great morning that was!  We were joined by most of our family and some friends at our church to be part of her day.  I was a little anxious as to how it was going to be... was she going to fuss? was she going to be grunting and pooping?  (Church tends to get her bowels moving <eye roll>, let me tell you how extremely annoying and embarrassing that is!)  were we going to have to stand in the back of the church the whole time?  But she did GREAT! 


Is this not stinkin' cute?!?  Do you see how her hands are folded!  Precious!  She was so brave standing in front of everyone and not having to have Daddy carry her!!

Once we got up in front of everyone, the lights on the Christmas trees behind us caught her eye.  So as we are looking forward she is cranking her neck to look backward!  Ha.  I turned so she couldn't see them and waited for her to start fussing... nada!  Yes! 

When Pastor Jonathan baptized her she just stared at him.  She was totally focused on him even after she was splashed with water and walked around with.  His face didn't leave her eyesight.  So cute!  


Makenzie did great too!  Before the service we explained to her what would be happening and what we expected her to do.  Typically that can go in one ear and out the other, but she LISTENED!  And she had lots of distractions around her and she stayed as focused and quiet as any child could!  Because she was so good Daddy took her out on a lunch date.  Haha where she got a hamburger and fry kids meal with some icecream!!!  What a treat. 
This is when Makenzie asked if she was "Bath tized" now!  :0)
