Andrew slept through his whole party after the baptism.

Here is Michael in his suit - such a big boy!!

As you can imagine there were just a few pictures taken.

Oops - wrong bib for the Baptism....but we were thinking of everyone who couldn't be with us today in person. Too bad the Church didn't have WiFi - then we could have skyped the Baptism!!

Andrew gave Mr. Met a stern talking too - so the Mets won so today it was ok to dress in his Mets' outfit!!

What a happy day!!! Yes, Grandpa and Michael are both wearing their seersucker - Bryan decided it would be too much if he put on his suit too!!!

Someone is a very happy little man!! What a happy Catholic!!

Just the baptism - Father Roux tried to sneak in the ordination vows but then he remembered Andrew was too young.

Sat May 24th - Andrew James was Baptized!! Thank you Aunt Debbie and Uncle Justin for being my Godparents. Thank you Father Roux for making me a Christian!! I was a good boy - not one cry - just smiles and laughs (and a little gas).

Andrew is also starting to sit up more by himself...totally cool!!

I know it is hard to tell from this picture but Andrew rolled over on his side - all by himself!! Very exciting but that also means we need to keep a closer watch on him so he doesn't roll away....

We went to visit Dad at work, but since I forgot the camera in the car we had to take a picture in the parking lot looking at the building where Dad works... The next day Michael wanted to go for a drive (his new favorite thing) so I asked him where he wanted to go and he said "Dad work". Very cute!!

Way scary - this parking deck where we are standing collapsed today - May 13th - Bryan got there after it happen so he is safe and sound.

Here are the boys together... can't believe Michael was that small once...

Andrew getting his pitching arm ready...ok, just playing with a baseball wearing his Mets outfit.

Like any good reader - taking his book with his wherever he goes...

Andrew is off to a great start - already reading!!! And a book Dad brought home from London - reading international books!!!

Andrew is not sure how he looks in his duck outfit - so he tries to hide from the camera...

Big smile with the hood down!!

Michael found this egg shell when we were playing in the driveway - guess the baby bird is close to the house...how cool.

Michael showing Andrew the cool stuff on the exersaucer - such a good big brother

Michael playing with Andrew's feet

Ground breaking for our new church - we went to see the bishop in a hard hat.

Here is Michael doing one of his favorite things 'clean up'. Plus it is a big help to me to have him clean up the exersaucer for Andrew.

Big news - Andrew can make the cow play music!! Another milestone!!

Closeup of Andrew on Mom's lap

Michael after a bath eating some banana - who would have thunk it??? 1 - Michael ASKED for the banana and 2 - I finished what he didn't eat of the 2nd banana!!!

crazy!!

Best part - the peels go right down the garbage disposal!!

Look Aunt Nancy and Uncle Tim - I am already a bird watcher!! But I would never try to grab the foot of a real bird!!

Trying to get healthy Andrew is ready for a jog...can't go too fast on those short legs!!

It is so hard to wait for the cookies to bake!! We have been trying some new recipes - more healthy but still yummy!!!

Outside with his car Michael is a happy boy - when he is not pondering the meaning of life...

Just like Fred Flinstone (or the pickup truck) - put your feet down and make the car go....

The dogwoods are in bloom - so I had to get a picture since they bloom so fast. The pink tree we planted, the white tree was here. There is another small white dogwood in the back of the yard - wish there were more!!

More clothes that are too cute!! So glad Andrew is getting to wear them!!

Windy day at the park - static from the slide - Michael's hair was crazy!!

Andrew didn't mind - he had on his boat pants and jacket over his onsie and a blanket and of course a hat!!

One of my favorite outfits - love the 'bear bottom'

We didn't get to see the Pope when he was here in the US but Michael's Godfather sent Michael this great shirt so Michael could wear it while watching the Pope on TV. We hope Pope Benedict is Pope for a long time - at least until Andrew gets big enough to wear the shirt!!!!

Now that Andrew's skin is looking much better we are trying to get some cute pictures in some of my favorite

clothes before he grows out of them...
