My Baptism

I have a couple of new things to announce - Saturday night I slept 5 1/2 hours straight for the first time (I know good for me right!) but then I woke up at 2:30 Sunday morning and thought I should be awake. I also thought Mama should be awake too so we stayed up until 5:30am she was really sleepy but I persuaded her to stay up with me. Did you guys know that I can be pretty persuasive when I want to be?!

Then I could only sleep until 7am when she had to wake me up because we were going to Queen of Angels Church so that I could be baptized. Yup, I've now been baptized Catholic - cool huh! Here I am waking up at 7am, Mama had swaddled me like a baby burrito when she put me down and this is how she found me. I don't know how I covered my head with the blanket or got a foot out but there I am...

The baptism went really well Mama said that I was a perfect angel and didn't cry at all (I'm not sure why she sounded surprised when she said that though?!) Anyhow I was cleansed with water and blessed with oil, Sean & Vickie are my Godparents, and a lot of people came to celebrate with me. After I was baptized, Father Tupper told my parents to take me down the aisle and let the congregation bless me and say hello. Papa said that I was like a little politician - looking at the individuals as if to say, "Hello, hi, thanks for coming, nice to see you, hey how's it going!" :)  Father Tupper also told Mama & Papa that I chose them to be my parents which is a neat thought. The party at our house afterwards was fun too because I loved all the attention and being held by everyone!
