A Little Peace

Mr. T. took his mom and sister to Sam's tonight so I am enjoying a little peace and quiet. Sam's is a big deal to his mother. There really isn't anything like that in Australia.

So we Baptized Baby P this weekend. The sermon was beautiful. It talked about how we need to support our children and leave a world that is better than we inherited. We have had a little drama at church as of late. I don't really know who reads this blog, so I am not going to go into it, but I think it has left the church a tighter community if not a little lighter in the pockets.

Baby P was really good during the actually baptism. He was a bit fussy before it forcing me to actually leave the sanctuary. I didn't have the most nursing friendly outfit on, but luckily, I had a cover up. I had to whip it out a couple of times and of course, he refused because there was STUFF going on. and why satisfy our needs when we can see STUFF!!

With peanut, her bonnet was stuck on her head so it was a bit of a hassle when we tried to baptize her. With Baby P, the bonnet I bought for him looked more like a yarmulke, which is kinda funny considering it had a cross on it.

Sunday afternoon we had a reception. I invited over a couple of families and some people from the church. I made some lasagna, salad, and brownies. It was all pretty easy and good. Luckily, my friends all have kids that are well mannered and nice. I dread the day that I have a friend whose kid is a holy terror. The best part was that everyone was gone by 7, much different than the parties we used to throw.

Peanut's potty training is going better. She probably has an accident about once every other day, which is different from every day. She is really into what a big girl does and doing things herself, so hopefully, she is starting to get it. She has been saying some pretty funny stuff lately, but, of course, i can't remember any of it.

Oh he looks so cute in his baptism outfit! Alex is getting baptized in a couple weeks--so is Lucas. Won't THAT be interesting! I'm terrified that he will scream/talk the entire time! Should have done it when he was a baby...
