Baptism

We're finally healthy again. Mommy says that was the worst she's ever seen so far. We were even supposed to have pictures taken this past weekend, but she cancelled the appointment.

We were baptised on the 21st, which was Daddy's birthday. Mommy says she felt bad, but that we'd celebrate the following weekend instead.

Our hats fit, but the strap didn't go all the way around our heads. Mommy put this on Alex, just to see how it would look.


Here's Alex in his suit, and he's even smiling!



Here I am, there were a few people there and I was wondering what was going on.



We had just woken up, so we're now quite smiling yet.


There were 3 other babies that got baptized the same day. Everyone was saying how good we did during the service, even though we both were making some noise! The priest even said that one of the twins wanted him to get on with it when Alex screeched out loud in the church. At least everyone laughed when we did!
Then we got to have water pored over our heads. Alex went first while I watched. He must have liked it, once he got back to Mommy, he was leaning over trying to get in the basin! I just did what I do in the bathtub, lean my head back to try and get water in my mouth!
Here's a couple from the church. Kim is one of Mommy's closest friends since high school and she's our Godmother. That's our Uncle Sean, he's Alex's Godfather. My Godfather is Daddy's friend Brock, but he couldn't be there since he had to work. He was Mommy and Daddy's best man when they got married. And that's Father Oscar in the middle.


That's us with Nanay and Grandpa.



Here we are with Grandma and Grandpa. It was a busy morning and we didn't get much of a nap, so Alex was laying on everyone while they were taking pictures.



Mommy just wheeled us into our room when we got home, that way we could get some sleep.


After we woke up, we hung out with everyone and ate lunch. It was a fun day.
