Baptismal Weekend

Series of Events from last weekend:

We made it to Minneapolis about 12:15 friday night to start a weekend of celebration for Hannah's Baptism. Saturday morning we slept in a little and so did Hannah! We stopped Friday night at the Git 'n Go in Charles City about 9:30 to start her bedtime routine of vitamin drops, pj's, and nursing. She fell asleep by about 10pm and slept until 5:57am! I haven't slept that well in 8 weeks! She has been sharing in many snuggles from family members and we are sharing some time at the Zabell's and Clapper's seeing lots of family. Here is a picture of all the living Zabells:


After spending time at the Zabell's on Saturday morning and lunch, we went back to the Clapper household to see my grandparents who came in from Billings for the Baptism. We had some hors d'oeuvres and spent time with the Clappers, here are some pictures:

Great-Grandma ClapperHannah's Baptism was at the early service at Incarnation Lutheran on Sunday at 8:45 am. Pastor Markquart, who married Joe and I just over 2 years ago, baptized Hannah. We feel so honored to have Emily Trapp and Brian Park as her baptismal sponsors. They are both very important to Joe and me and we look forward to their involvement in Hannah's life as well. My parents hosted a brunch afterwards and we felt so fortunate to have close friends and family there. Thank you to everyone who came from near and far to be at Hannah's baptism, we feel so fortunate to have you in our lives.
