Aleigha was baptized today and she was such a good baby. She laughed and smiled the whole service (except the part where the pastor drenched her head by accident!) :) She was over it in a minute though. My Aunt Jackie and Uncle Paul are her Godparents and stood up with us during the baptism. I wish someone would have taped it because I couldn't see Aleigha's face since I was holding her but saw everyone smiling and laughing at her. Her Baptism outfit was made for her in China by a woman in Nanchang that we met through our tour guide.
Look how much fun Grayson is having in this picture!! ;)
Did you notice Grayson in the back entertaining himself???? Pastor Elyse was holding Aleigha.
After church, we had a cookout at our house. I think we had around 15 people and the food was really good. Jeff made Aleigha's baptism cake! It was BEAUTIFUL!! He was up until 1am making it the night before.
Aleigha in her baptism outfit before we changed her for the afternoon...
Johnny and Aleigha "playing" with the same toy..... Isn't Johnny's outfit so cute?!
Here's Aleigha after she opened her gifts...
Then Johnny and Aleigha played in the water and sand table and got soaked!
After her outfit got soaked, we thought this would be easier... :)
What a cool baby - hangin' out in her swing..
Last night, we ate at the Ribeye in Champaign to celebrate my Mom's birthday. We all LOVE the Ribeye. It was very good food!
For some reason, Grayson wanted Mom to read him an "after-dinner" book at the table. It was a book she gave him when he was a baby and we just found it because she gave Aleigha the same book. :)
We had a very busy weekend and we are all very tired! Now we have to get ready for Monday...

The pics. of Aleigha and Johnny together are so sweet! They will be such great friends!! Of course, Jeff's many talents always impress me. I think he should have a catering business or something.
