A weekend of firsts.


So Evy had a very full and wonderful weekend. She attended her first wedding. Our friends Paul and Katie were married on Saturday. We know them from the Seminary. It was soul restoring to have so many of my friends from Sem around. Here is the whole group.

Then on Sunday Evy was baptized at Christ English and welcomed into God's family. Our friend Nick preached and washed our daughter of her sin. She cried pretty hard. Pretty normal reaction since we would all rather keep our sin than give it up to Jesus and be compelled to love our neighbor. (Ok, only my Sem friends are going to think that's funny...pastor humor.) Evy wasn't all about getting pictures taken. She thought it was a pretty bad joke that Mom held her while she got water on her head and then didn't feed her. So she cried through the pictures. My mom made Evy's gown out of her wedding dress. Here is the best picture...

Then today she had her two month old shots. She did awesome. Larye and I touched her and kissed her while they were going in. She screamed while they were happening and then I nursed her and she was thrilled. Evy actually smiled after her shots. She has been a bit more fussy tonight, but I would be too after 4 shots in my little chubby legs. Evy is now 12lbs 4 oz and 23 inches long.

She just now spent 10 mins. smiling at her monkeys before going to sleep. (Hopefully we'll soon have video of Evy talking with her new friends the monkeys.)

Love you all.

  • What a fun weekend of "firsts!" And, what a creative idea for a baptism dress---beautiful. Love the mall shots, too! I hear we may get to see you all Sunday evening for Hvisty's 30th. Can't wait to meet Evy!
