The Newest Little Cath.olic


Last weekend we baptized our sweet boy. It was a particularly lovely weekend with lots of quality family time. B was the best baby of the bunch. He slept through most of it, and made nary a peep when the water was poured on his head. As the priest put it, "The spirit passed through quietly." It was so very special and I was so very proud.
That's our B in his fancy little Nord.strom baby baptismal getup (gift from BIL). He was extraordinarily handsome that day. I still have a severe case of mommy brain. On this day, I forgot to pack some wipes in the diaper bag. I didn't realize this until B had a particularly smelly poo in the middle of the ceremony. I had to improvise during the diaper change and it wasn't pretty, but I managed not to get any poo on the white silk outfit. I've got mad skillz, ya'll.
Some days, I truly struggle with this mommy brain deal. There are some days I feel like such a simpleton, I don't know how I manage to do my job. With this, I must end this post so I can get some sleep. I neeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeed it.
