One Packed Weekend

We had a busy weekend!!

On Saturday cousin Caitlin celebrated her first birthday with a Wizard of Oz themed party.  She was the cutest little birthday girl ever, having so much fun with her gifts (talking Elmo was a favorite!) and loved being the center of attention.  Saturday night went to a wedding reception for Joe's cousin, Renee and Mike.  They got married in Mexico and had an amazing reception back here.  Renee looked so beautiful and we are so happy for them!!

Sunday was Lucy's baptism and she loved all the attention on her special day.  My sister Beth and my brother-in-law Rob are Lucy's Godparents and they are so amazing to her.  Lucy slept all through church in Beth's arms and I can tell she has a very special bond with both of them.  She must have been exhausted from all the work it took to get baptized - she slept through the night for the first time on Sunday night! Thank you so much Beth and Rob for all you do for Lucy!  And, thank you to both of our families who shared it with us - especially Aunt Jill and Uncle Jake who flew in from Colorado for the weekend!

A few pics from the weekend...

Caitlin loved the mobile on Lucy's car seat and kept going back to it...it was so cute!

I look bored but was having fun...


Lucy wearing her special bracelet from her Godparents - it is her "old" for her wedding bouquet



A cousin pic - Caitlin looks like she is sitting still but she is actually plotting her climb off of the chair which happened about two seconds later
