Christening Day

Well, the day started off pretty good. Maddock woke up at the crack of dawn along with McKinlee. Of course, McKinlee was not gonna allow his Aunt Fran to sleep in though. But we made it through the morning without killing him.

We had a few hours to kill prior to the main event of the day and since Maddock was so happy, daddy decided to try him out in his johnny jumper (that he still can't reach the floor with). Even though the feet don't reach the floor he loves when you bounce him around in it. Well, enough fun and games, its time to start to get ready.

The big event went very well, Maddock was very fussy, he was fighting his nap like crazy! Unfortunately, my gracefulness shined brightly at the church. Fortunately, for me you are not allowed to video tape or take photos during the Christening, therefore, no one caught me hitting the hard marble floor behind the baptismal font. Apparently there are two steps and a ramp, that I decided to take fall on -- hence the black & blue ankle, the extremely sore thigh muscle too! Other then that, the Christening was beautiful.

After the formal celebration we all posed for some pictures and then headed over to Ham's by the Palladium for some grub, where some how the waiter they fired was the same one that took my reservations. Hence, there was no reservation for us :( We had to wait for few minutes for them to pull something together for us but it all turned out well -- we got free food for the inconvenience. Thank you waiter dude!!
