What a great last weekend, hubby was home , Baptized Michael, Theresa had her 9th Birthday party!!!    Michael was baptized after 11 am mass on Sunday October 20th, 2013.  It was different not having the baptize during mass, only had to stand in front of our friends and family.  I wasn't worried about how my girls were acting cause it didn't matter if they weren't smiling or standing perfect at the Baptismal Font. 

Apparently the lack of being bathed showed up on Sunday cause Michael didn't like the water at all.  I will admit he has only been sat/laid in sink once in 4 weeks.  I intend to start doing better and bathing him at least once or twice a week.

Screaming his little head off

Took another family photo at church this is the best one of the bunch.  I think that next year when hubby returns it is time for a professional session. I'm lucky cause my sister-in-law is a pro she gets paid to take senior, family, and baby photos by other people.

I think that if we only have one person taking the pictures it would help all of us focus at the same time on the right camera.  Also having only one person would save on distractions like me talking to people or girls not looking at camera.

After the Baptism it was time to party!  We celebrated Theresa's 9th Birthday and the baptism with some Little Cesar's pizzas and chips at our home.

Theresa's party was all about soccer.  Another great cake by Auntie Hay

My girls all had beautiful cakes to celebrate their Baptisms not wanting him to feel sad if he ever saw the pictures of the other cakes I made him a cake.   It was yummy but, not so pretty, I was told by someone he won't care cause he is a boy.  I hope that is true about a lot of things that he won't be dramatic or care about fairness since he is a boy.

 Hubby flew out Monday morning, only 6 more months to go on this deployment.

Theresa turned 9 on Monday my thought on the whole deal is WHAT I'll have a double digit child next year! She found the free kids meal coupon I printed for Texas Roadhouse so that is where the Team went on Monday to celebrate.

Micheal made it to the age of a month at the end of the week.  He has survived all his mothering from the Team.  Check out what I found one evening in my bed.

I was told he was crying so Laura tucked him in my bed and got in with him. I will admit that he wasn't crying when I found the two of them. I didn't even get mad I just took a picture. Laura isn't suppose to be picking him up and walking around with him, I think that I give up on that rule.
