Gabe's Christening & 17 Weeks

Gabe's Christening:

On April 18, 2010 Gabe was baptized at
the Church of St. Patrick.

This church most reminded me of the
church I went to my whole life,
St. Ignatius. Plus, they were very
welcoming and understanding of our
unique situation.

Gabe's Godparents are Adam and Erin.

The day went great. Gabe slept through
most of the mass and then we changed him in the
pew after mass. His gown is the Daniel
gown from Kissy Kissy and was a gift from
his Godmother, Erin.

We realize he's wearing a bonnet and a skirt
but I especially like the tradition of the
christening so we had to do it :)

He did fantastic during the ceremony, just
staring at Msgr. O'Connor the whole time.

After we had a luncheon at Roma.

Thanks to extremely generous gifts, we are
able to make a substantial deposit in his TAP 529
account to save for college. He also got a bible and
a monogram tie tack from Nana and Zeide. I still
need to take pictures of those.




17 Weeks:

Gabe is getting so big. He's really
starting to grab at things and pick them up.

He's also much more verbal. He's "talking"
all the time. He is belly lauging a lot too, it's
so cute.
