Ethan's Baptism

Saturday was a big day for Ethan.  He was baptized at St. Elizabeth Ann Seton.  His closest family and friends were there to witness the occassion.  All of his grandparents, Aunt Carissa, Uncle Mike, Uncle Chris, Aunt Diana, Cousin Emma, "Uncle" Chris and "Aunt" Kristin were all there.  I know that his great grandparents who were not able to make it were there in spirit.  He and the rest of the babies there were perfect little angels.  In fact, he slept through the entire ceremony.  Well, that was until the end when the water was poured over his little head.  What a rude awakening for him.  But, he still didn't cry or put up a fight.  Uncle Chris has the honor of being Ethan's godfather while Aunt Carissa will be his honorary godmother (honorary in that the Catholic church doesn't recognize non-Catholics as godparents, but we do).  It is a good thing we had the ceremony when we did.  That cute outfit will not fit him too much longer.  After the ceremony we all went to Cousin's BBQ for a delicious lunch.  Thank you to everyone came out for Ethan's big day.  You all mean so much to us. 



A little shocked waking up to water being poured on his head.  Uncle Chris and Dad looking on.
