Where's the Bathtub?

In preparation for Anna's baptism,
Tim explained that Grandpa was going
to wash Anna's head at church this morning.
Not real theologically sound, but it gave Ellie an idea
of what it was going to be like.
SOOOO....
As Ellie came in and the service started....
Ellie asked very loudly...

"WHERE'S THE BATHTUB??"

Our little Anna was baptized this morning in the same gown her
Great Great Grandma Anna wore when she was baptized
(somewhere around 100 years ago).
Right before the baptism started a choir sang.
Ellie did really well until she said really loudly...

"SILLY MAN!"

Apparently she had more fun watching the conductor rather than the choir.
I took a moment to explain what the conductor was doing with his hands.

Anna meet the church...church meet Anna.
The fam.
Kaare and Michelle Kvenild are Anna's Godparents!
(Thank you for loving her and praying for her!!)

My Weird but LOVED Child

Ellie's World

We got a new camera, so now the old is Ellie's.
We're not sure where she got the love of pictures from?? wink...wink...

Here's Ellie's first "Ellie's World" post...

I've NEVER seen Daddy make a face like this...
This is mommy's "friend" Lesley Sansone.
She's helping mommy with her "Anna leftovers".

Here's Mommy doing her work out.
I'm so glad about the blurriness...
otherwise you'd see that she hadn't showered
or washed her face or brushed her teeth.
And it was almost 11am.
And here's my snack.

Tune in some other day for another installment of Ellie's World.

B, H & C

B is for Bumbo.
H is for the heart attack I had
when I first saw her sleeping like this...
completely face down.
She was fine,
but I did move her right after I took the picture...

C is for cousins.
