Holy Baptism

Aislyn,  a prayer for you on the day of your baptism:

O God, our heavenly Father, grant that as you grow in years, may you also grow in grace and in the knowledge of the Lord Jesus Christ, and that by the restraining and renewing influence of the Holy Spirit you may always be a true child of God, serving Him faithfully all your days.

Our dearest family and friends came together today as we vowed to love, care for and counsel you as we lead you into a life of faith.

Celebrating with you today were: Mommy, Daddy, Camryn, Aidan, Ashley Noble, Jennifer, Mike and Addison Porter, Grammy, Popa, Nicole, Todd, Grumpy, Nihar, Deepali, and Kartik Shah, and Chris, Rebecca, Cooper and Bailey Goodwin.

5 months

Yesterday, Aislyn turned 5 months.  She is moving right along!  She loves to play, smile, babble and coo.  She also, thankfully, still loves to sleep!  She has the sweetest little personality.  She does this thing when shes really happy...kinda like a laugh but silent.  She opens her mouth and squints her eyes and kicks in delight...but no sound comes out.  She'll figure out the laughing thing soon enough.  Every now and then a squeal will escape and once but only once I got an actual "uh, huh, huh!"  Shes very observant.  She loves to watch her brother and sister play.  She gets so excited, you can just tell that shes eager to be a part of it.  Happy 5 months Aisy!!
