Miss Grace's Baptism!

This past month, we celebrated a very important occasion- our little Grace's baptism. :) Exactly two years ago, Bella was baptized as well. It's so crazy that we now have another beautiful baby- and a 2 1/2 year old!
Our two little princesses before heading to church in the morning- both looking so pretty! This is my best picture of the two of them thus far! It's getting much easier now that Grace can hold her head up on her own.
Grace did well during the baptism, despite having water poured all over her head. :) She was sleeping, but obviously that woke her right up! It apparently didn't bother her too much though as she didn't even cry.
After church, we had all of our family over for a brunch. We then attempted some family pictures after little missy had a semi-nap. I think this is actually our first family photo since Grace was 5 days old! My my how she's changed. :) Our active two year old was apparently not too interested in this picture.
A four generation picture of moms and their daughters!
Derek with his family and little ladies. :) Again, Bella was just LOVING taking pictures!
And my parents with all six of their grandchildren- complete with two new little girls. I still can't believe that we have this many little girls now- what drama the teenage years will bring. :)
Bella and her "favorite" uncle. :) These two have a very special relationship... One loves the other very much, and one loves to be sassy and hide from the other. Obviously it's not apparent who is who.
I forgot to take a picture of Grace's cake prior to eating it. :) Ooops! It was cute though! And tasted yummy. Bella and I enjoyed eating the leftovers for the next week.
After all our family left, both the girls were wiped out and slept the afternoon away. So I didn't get any pictures taken of them except the few I took of them both before church. And this one of miss wide eyes after she woke up. :)
So I decided to dress them up later in the week so I could get some pictures of them in their pretty dresses.
Grace was a perfect little model for mommy.
Bella... not so much. :) She's not easy to take pictures of right now!
A sweet little smile from Gracie. :)
Big sister loves little sister soooo much!
So very pretty in her white ruffly dress!
It was wonderful to share that special day! We are so very thankful for the blessing of our little girls.
