Baby Dedication

Maddux was dedicated in a ceremony at church this morning. We asked Cooper's parents, Dave and Carissa, to be her Godparents, and they happily accepted. Although she was much better behaved than Eli was during his ceremony, Maddux was still a little fussy while one of the pastors held her. Despite her awesome night of sleep, she had only cat-napped in the car on the way over, so she was a bit overtired. We had been unable to locate the christening gown for almost a month now. (This gown has been in my family for over 100 years; my dad wore it, my brother and I wore it, and Eli wore it.) By the sheer grace of God, less than an hour before we left the house this morning it turned up. Mad Dog's godparents, "D", Aunt Megan, Gamma Cappy, Gappa Jib, Treis (cousin), and GG (Eli and Maddux's great-grandma) were all there to celebrate with us this morning.
