Henry's Christening 9/17




Last Sunday, our darling Henry was baptized and is now an official Catholic. For the occasion we had many visitors from the sunshine state-- Mom and Dad Novack, Mom Waltram, Kelley Diveto (Henry's beautiful Godmother), Matt Novack (Henry's Godfather) and Wendy Gordon. Also in attendance were many Boston friends and neighbors. Henry did very well and didn't cry when the Father poured the water over his head, he just threw out his arms and looked very startled.

After the baptism we had a cookout at our house and Henry didn't nap all afternoon- he just sat in his bouncey seat and charmed everyone. I guess he knew the day was for him.

It was a very emotional day for me. We have a wonderful family and are surrounded by a lot of love. God gave us a great gift bringing Henry into our lives.

Henry is growing so fast! This morning I couldn't resist getting him undressed and taking photos. He is just so rolly-polly!! I actually measured his thigh and it is 10 inches around. I just love every inch of that pudge! He even has fat on the top of his feet. This is the first time I have every thought cellulite is adorable!
