Baptism

Posted by Andy on Mar 23, 2007 in General

It’s a little late but….I have been quite busy dealing with all the company and new baby. Olivia was baptized on March 11 and was a perfect little angel. She didn’t cry at all, in fact she slept through the entire service. We had most of the family here, Grandma and Grandpa B, Grandma and Grandpa H, and Brian and Jen (Sarah and Stephen couldn’t make it because they are living in Switzerland). It was quite the full house but we really enjoyed having everyone at our home. Many of you may not know, but the dress Olivia wore was the same one my mother was baptized in, along with myself and almost every niece and nephew since. Along with it being a very special day for all of us it was also a very stressful one for Miriam. The night before she worked herself into a panic attack, making herself sick and completely stressing herself out. This was mainly due to her worries of Olivia wrecking the baptismal dress or Olivia crying during the ceremony. After much coaxing and soothing by myself and Grandma B she was able to settle down return to normal. All in all it was fantastic day for us and our lord.

Things are getting better

Posted by Andy on Mar 8, 2007 in General

As the days go by, quickly I might add, things are getting better. She is teaching us what we need to do and when we need to do it. For a three week old she’s a pretty good teacher! She has started looking at us and I think she can distinguish who is mom and dad and who isn’t. We have also found that she isn’t fitting into her newborn clothes anymore so despite our worries of her gaining weight, she is growing. I find the best part of my day is when I come home at night and get to hold her. It’s amazing how I can love her as much as I do and I have only known her for three and a half weeks.
