This past Saturday night our precious baby girl was baptized!
We should have done this sooner, but we finally decided on a church. We wanted a smaller service so chose a Saturday evening. Labor Day weekend was a perfect weekend so that our family was able to make it in from out of town. Devin, Patrick's brother, is the Godfather, and my sister, Jess, is the Godmother of Daylynn. My parents, siblings, and grandma made it for the service. Patrick's parents live in Great Bend so this wasn't a hard task to make it :) Then my good friends in Great Bend Vicki, Nicholl, Kylee and her family came too.
Daylynn wore an adorable white gown with a yellow stitched cross on it, a yellow head band, and an extremely special gift from her Great Great Grandma Day who she is named after. She wore a necklace with her birthstone. She didn't mess with her necklace at all!
Daylynn did really well during the service, normally she is in the nursery so we were a little curious how this was going to work. She also did well during the baptism, she wasn't thrilled about getting water poured on her (this isn't new considering she still freaks out a little when washing her hair), and she was trying to pull off his hand when he was blessing her. When she tried to pry his hand off, it was pretty cute actually.
After the service, we all went back to Pattie's house and enjoyed a scrumptious meal. It was so nice to have all our family in town and some friends. We appreciated all those that came and truly feel blessed to have such a wonderful family and our precious baby girl!
Daylynn is 10 months tomorrow, so will be updating on her then :)
