Lots of Stuff!

We have been so busy lately that I have not been good at keeping this blog updated. This post is going to be several overdue posts wrapped into one. The most important thing has been Anna Kate's baptism on December 12th. We had AK baptized at my home church in Beaufort. I was baptized in this same church, in this same dress. She missed her morning nap that day so I was very nervous that she was just going to meltdown. She did great and fell asleep right after her part was over!Mommy and AK before. I love how you can see all of the details of her dress in this pic. My aunt Carol and her mother, Mrs. Betty made this dress 27 years ago!

Family shot. AK was not very happy here!

Us with the preacher

After church we had everyone over to our house for lunch. We had time to get a few pictures. This is Leslie, Me, Ginny, and Cinnamon.

The pretty rose bud vase my parents got for AK in honor of her baptism

Now for some more catching up. We took Anna Kate to see Santa for the first time. She really didn't pay him much attention. There were so many other people there she just wanted to be nosy and watch and listen to them.

We did manage to get a half smile

Now for some funny stuff!! We went to the doctor for her 4 month well child check up. She weighed 13.5 lbs (50th percentile) and was 25.5 inches long (86th percentile). The doctor said we could start giving her rice cereal. She LOVES it, however, it does not help her sleep any better. But anyway.....here are a few pictures of her 1st time eating off of a spoon :)

We have to pry the spoon out of her mouth and hands!

I think some of it may have gotten IN her mouth. Ha!
