div>Yesterday, Davis was baptised at our church in Dallas, and I have to say it was beautiful! The priest that married Michael and I was out of town for the weekend...in Italy! The bride and groom actually flew him down there. Must be nice!! But everything was absolutely wonderful. Davis still pees every five minutes it seems like, so of course you know he is going to need a diaper change in the middle of mass. So as Michael and Davis leave, the priest calls all parents and Godparents up to the alter for the baptism. Wait!! My child is missing. The priest is looking at me, asking, 'Aren't you missing some people?' Yes, that's right. Leave it to my family to almost miss our own baptism. So he waited patiently, as Rebecca and I stood at the alter, as everyone stared at us wondering what in the world was going on. Then everything ran smoooothly.
When it was time for his head to be dipped, to my amazement, Davis did not scream, cry, utter a sound. Ahhh. Thank goodness. You weren't THAT child.

See, I sprout wings when I go to church.

In the first pic it looks like you have wings! I'm so glad you had a delightful day with your little man.
You have a beautiful family. We are having Caroline christened the first weekend in June and I can't wait. I think I'm going to steal your cookie idea. They are too cute!
Oh, I love how you have wings in the first picture. That could be used in many ways as your child gets older!
What a sweet family moment! LOL @ your wings! You look fabulous.
The wing picture is great! Happy Baptism day to your little one! What a wonderful day for your family!
The pee thing happens to celebrities too all the time it seems when they are going to accept an award...just makes your day more memorable!
Congratulations on Davis' baptism -- he is adorable and you all are such a beautiful family. I love the cake and the cookies that surely made his special day even more special.
