It was so nice to have Dana and Tom here in town for Avery's baptism. They will make fantastic godparents! The great thing about having family here (especially sisters) is that they love Avery like we do. They love her like she's theirs too.
Tom and Dana gave Avery the most beautiful silver tea cup engraved with her birthdate and baptism date. It is one those "special" items that she'll keep forever. I'm thinking of hanging in from the tiny chandelier in her room with a ribbon. I have no idea what it is about having a baby that has turned me into a Martha Steward wana-be. Keepsake boxes...lullaby soundtracks...new traditions.
If I can create even half of the magic in our house that my parents gave me growing up, I'll consider myself a success. The birthday frosting and the Easter Bunny...Santa Clause and the Tooth Fairy.
Here are all of the pics from her baptism weekend.
