he's a saint!

well. not exactly, but he is baptized. saturday's easter vigil service was a little on the long side, but was beautiful and memorable. finn behaved very well and didn't even yelp from the water or the anointing of oil. i think if i could do it all over again, i'd have skipped the dinner plans at hell's kitchen, because dinner and a baptism proved to be a very long night for finn and i think we were playing with fire in hoping he'd make it through without a spaz out. he did get a little fussy towards the end of the service, but i'm not complaining.... i was getting fussy too.

so.. now he's "christ's own" as my mom says.... but he's been a total crab this week, so i'm going to blame that on the fact that he's still got a little of the devil in him rather than that his mom has been running him ragged all weekend/week.

thanks to his grandparents, great-grandparents and godparents for all the wonderful christening gifts. finn will greatly appreciate all the love... some day... i'm sure. this picture is poo, but some random lady took it with my camera. i'm hoping someone else can send me a better version, but in the meantime... the whole baptismal clan...
