Marek's Baptism

Well, I finally got Marek baptized! I was so prompt with Madelyn - at 2 months! It was harder to coordinate schedules and everything else this time! At least I got it done before he was one! The day was crazy - I forgot my camera (which NEVER happens) and we didn't get a "formal" picture of us with the Godparents. I'm just glad he's finally baptized!

Here you can see Bradly on the far left (Tommy's cousin, aka the Godfather) and Kelly (Godmother).

Marek was very slippery in his silky little outfit!

Before mass he was entertaining the church with his "wuba wubas".

During mass we had to keep feeding him wagon wheels to keep him quiet!

When it came time to pour the water over his head, he nearly choked Tom hanging on for dear life. He wasn't crazy about being held backwards and upside down above the water with someone pouring it on him . . .

He's not sure what just transpired and why mom is smiling . . .Anointy-nointy!

After the baptism you turn to the congregation and everyone claps. Marek, of course, joined in not realizing it was for him! Or maybe he was clapping because it finally happened . . .

Everyone came over for brunch afterwards. It was great seeing Lynn and Brittany. Brittany is holding baby Will below, Beth and Brad's youngest. John Barry and Kate are their other two and they are absolutely adorable. No pictures though because my brain was shut off!

God Bless!

(A special thanks to Aunt Gena for taking such great pictures on this blessed day!)
