Reveille has been baptised

Heather & I were very happy to have Reveille baptized last Sunday. Our Christian faith is an important part of our family and we want Reveille to be able to experience the joy that comes from a relationship with Jesus. Her baptism ceremony was a great 1st step on that journey. The ceremony was performed by Minister Paul Vroom during Missio Dei’s sunday morning worship and we had an open house afterwards at her Grandparent’s home to continue the celebration. Another important part of our family is looking for excuses to throw a party. It was a wonderful day spent with friends and family celebrating her little life and anticipating what Christ will do in it. A few pictures of the day can be seen here. The dress she wore during the baptism was the same dress her mother was baptised in. The dress she had on later came to her from relatives in Texas. We were very happy to hear that Reveille’s baptism was also celebrated that fine state at Magnolia United Methodist Church.

If you would like to know more about what we believe about Infant Baptism we were introduced to this book through the process at our church. I am including this as it seems like it can be a bit of a hot topic amongst church folk.

Our 1st Easter

Reveille got to celebrate Jesus waking from the grave for the first time. Unfortunately  we were unable to celebrate with our church family and we all missed them. However, we were able to have a wonderful day with our biological one. We had a great morning brunch and in the afternoon Reveille got to meet some of her extended family for the first time. Her adorable dress was provided for her by her Grandma Lis. It pays to have a Personal Shopper looking out for you!

No More Bandage!

Yesterday was a happy doctor’s visit. According to Reveille’s neurosurgeon, her back is all but healed. That means no more wraps or bandages to keep clean and in place! Reveille did get her 4th cast too. Getting a new cast is never a happy experience for her, but it’s one more out of the way. I am looking forward to the day my daughter doesn’t need any more casts or bandages and she can wiggle free and easy.
