we had selma's baptism at st. monica st. george on sunday. it was a great day. selma's grandma joan (my mom) and her great aunt boo are her godparents, and we are thrilled that they agreed to fufill such an important role in selma's life. selma did great for the whole thing. she was calm for the actual baptism and even smiled at father when he poured the holy water on her head. greta and otto enjoyed the day so much that "getting baptized" has become a part of their bathtime.
you might remember that all 7 grandchildren in the hansbauer family have worn this baptismal gown, and all their names are stitched on the slip...what a great tradition.

I love gown traditions. My kids were baptized in the gown that me and my cousins wore and all of our names are stitched on the slip as well...boys in blue and girls in pink thread.
