Naming Ceremony and Visitors (4 1/2 Months)




 


Last weekend, we had Lucas's naming ceremony at our church.  It is somewhat like a baptism - welcoming Lucas to the community and recognizing him as an individual.  He wore the baptisimal gown that my brother, sister and I all wore for our baptisms (the bonnet was a little small for his HUGE head!)  We were grateful that my parents were here for the ceremony as Lucas Gregory is named after his Papa.

 After the ceremony, we had a brunch to celebrate at our place....Bloody Mary bar and all! Can you tell my mom helped plan the menu?!


Lucas got lots of special time with Papa and Ya-ya.  They even babysat one night so we could go out for dinner which was such a treat.  We so miss them, especially because we got to sleep in while they took Lucas in their bed in the morning when he woke up.



Lucas is loving his Exersaucer...and his tongue is his newest discovery.   He is so close to rolling over and likes to be on his tummy.  We stopped swaddling him at night and he is officially in his crib full time.  All these big steps...he is growing up!
