Caroline's Baptism and One Month Old Photo

Caroline all dressed and ready to go!  We were so blessed to be able to host her baptism at St. Ann's Church in Frankfort while on vacation in Northern Michigan last week.  It always helps to have the godparents present for a baptism and because Aunt Stephie and Uncle Jon were in town from Canifornia (as Lauren calls it) we decided to get Caroline baptized.

Not only was it wonderful to have Aunt Stephie and Uncle Jon with us, but the priest that baptized Caroline is the same priest we had at our parish near Grand Rapids growing up.  Because Steph and I went to that Catholic school as well, we have great memories of Fr. Porter.  How wonderful that Caroline was baptized by the same priest that celebrated my first communion with our family and married Steph and Jon too?

One day after Caroline's baptism she turned one month old.  It will be interesting to see how much she grows compared to that bear throughout the next year.  I am going to take her picture by it each month.  Thanks to the Brown Family for such a wonderful CMU teddy bear; Caroline's first bear.
