We had a very special first Father's Day weekend. Jackson was baptised on Father's Day at the church where we were married, and also where my parents were married. Jackson was wonderful for the baptism. He was awake and alert, just taking it all in. Of course, after his part of the church service was done, he was ready to make some noise, so I took him out of the service. We had a great weekend - all the family was in. We celebrated the approaching arrival of Jackson's cousin with a baby shower for Robert's sister, who is due in October. We're so excited Jackson will have a boy cousin only 6 months younger than him! Family get togethers should be wild! We had a big family dinner Saturday night and a post-baptism brunch Sunday. Then, all three of us passed out for 3 hours! (We are learning through this blog that we need to take more complete photos - we somehow missed getting photos of mom's brother and sister-in-law and Jackson's three cousins. We're learning...)
