Weekend Part III: Cora's Baptism

Sunday Cora was baptised at Grace Church in Manchester by Father Knight. Unfortunately Jason, who baptised both boys, is no longer with the church. Cora was her happy little self, and actually fell asleep during the service and woke up just in time for her "dunking". Cousin Sarah was very kind to lend Cora her beautiful christening gown! She certainly looked like a princess, jewelry and all! She only wore the bonnet for a short time, so we didn't really get a picture of her in it.. this here is the best I could get after much cropping! but she looked so cute I had to include it, although you don't get the full picture.

When I handed Cora over to Father Knight he said to me "hefty isn't she?!" Sweet Cora, just because you are a big girl doesn't mean you aren't beautiful!

And here is our family picture, it pretty much sums up our kids.. Caden clinging to Rob's leg because he doesn't want to cooperate, Cole not paying attention, and Cora ready to pose for the camera!
And here is Cora with her extended family: Godmother Danielle and Godfather Aaron

And just to complete the photo ops!!! We have Cora with Poobah and Dundore...

... and with Grampy, Grammy and Babci!

Here we have Cora with Daddy and his Godmother Mary Jane...

... and Cora with her Godfather Aaron, and his Godfather Tony (a.k.a. Grampy!)

And just how adorable is Miss Cora with her pearls and heart pendant? and of course that very kissable belly!

You really should consider entering some photos of Cora in a contest. She is beautiful. I bet she will win the Old Homes Baby Contest, hands down!! : )

I think the Old Homes Day contest is rigged.. I mean really how could our two other adorable children not have won! Haha! Just kidding, it really must be a hard job to be a judge because all babies are simply scrumptious!!
