| Make a greeting |
Today, on our three month anniversary of being home from China & we had Aislinn Christennied.
The day was beautiful. Aislinn got up(6am) ate breakfast & a bath then I laid her back down for a bit so I could get ready. Michael ran to pick Rachael up & when she got here she got Aislinn up & started to dress her. We were suppose to be at the church @ 10:30am for the 11am mass, we pulled into the parking lot @ 10:38, not to bad considering there were 9 people (not counting Ailsinn) getting showered & ready for the day. There was 2 other baby's (both under a year) being baptised. The church was packed. We were blessed that a lot of our families were there, besides the gang from my house, both my sisters & families were there,Andrew's brother & his family, Siobhan, Mckay & Goober, Aunt Ursula & Uncle Gasper, Aunt Nancy & Uncle Joe, Gaga, Sammi, Ruthie & Ronnie were all there. Andrew Rach Michael Aislinn & I had to wait (with the other two families) in the back of the church for the priest to ask us a few questions, for Aislinn to be blessed & then we were able to follow the priest into the church & back to our pew. Aislinn did really well when he poured the holy water over her head. Mass was over in just under a hour. When we got our front we took just a few photos cause we only had an hour to get all the food to the hall for her party. We got home & Rach quickly changed Aislinn into her party dress & Andrew changed into a different suit (the one he had on was to heavy for the hot weather). We loaded all the food into the car & drove the 2 minutes to hall.
Aislinn had a blast walking all over the hall and walking up to everyone & saying Hi Ya with the tilt of her head & a smile. Talking about smiles over 4oo hundred photos were taken of her & not a one is she smiling. My chipmunk that use to light up when she saw a camera now refuses to smile when she sees one. Guess I took to many photos of her! LOL
Aislinn finally got to meet some of the family that hadn't seen her yet, Micheala made (once again) a delicious cake & cupcakes for the party plus she also made cake pops for her favors.
After such a hectic week it was nice to sit & relax with the family after it was all over.
As Always Be Good & Be Safe
