Baptism Photos

I am so bummed I did not take pictures at the party. I was too busy socializing :-) I tried to put together what pictures I do have of some of the crafts. Next time I have a party I am going to put someone in charge of this. Overall, the day turned out great. Julian did super good and was a happy baby all day even with minimal naps.

I walked into the kitchen and I came back to find some playing with my pom poms! 

The flowers (from Sam's club), they lasted almost a whole week in eighty degree weather. The blue buckets were the cookie buckets. We decided to do a cookie bar instead of cake. We had six different types of cookies and chocolate milk and regular milk. This was a total hit. There were barely any cookies left when the party was over. 

Thank you pinterest for this great idea. I spray painted these and added twine. 

The banner I made the night before the party.

The pom poms the next day. Good thing there was no dew. 

The only picture from the party and the guest gifts. 

The chalkboard I try to do for every party.

5 Months

It is getting harder to take our monthly pictures. Julian is grabbing everything and will not lay still. He is rolling all over the place and trying to crawl. He is able to get his booty in the air but has not figured out how to use his arms. He is almost sitting by himself. He recently started teething which is no fun. In most the pictures he is sucking his lower lip or putting his hands into his mouth. After our photo shoot we put him down for a nap, when he woke up a chunk of his sticker was missing... because he ate it! I wish I would have taken a photo. 

Dad was trying to restrict his hands from going into his mouth...

Backyard Updates

This was our backyard when we bought our house

  

Our backyard after the old grass was removed and before the pool fence was installed (we also painted our fences).

 

We did not paint the fence on the left {paint could not even help that fence}. That will be another project down the road...
