On Sunday, April 18th, Ian was Baptized at Decorah Lutheran Church.We are fortunate that all our family was able to be present to celebrate such a special event in Ian's life.
Ian was wonderful during the service. He smiled at the congregation and didn't even cry when Pastor Robertson poured the holy water on his head! I think he thought he was getting a bath and he wasn't sure why everyone was watching!
Ian's Godparents, Jessie and Scott came on Saturday and we spent the day together. Ian loved watching his cousin Avery jump and play and gave Avery big smiles and giggles!
Cousins Riley and Hailey were so quiet during the service, I had to look to see if they had fallen asleep! They hadn't they were just being very good! I'm convinced that Ian has the best (and cutest) cousins in the world!
After the service, we had lunch (and of course cake!) in the Church social hall and Riley, Avery and Hailey had fun playing on the stage!
A special thanks to Uncle Jon for taking photos, Grandma Olson for making Ian's Baptismal outfit and making cheesy potatoes and to Nana for making salad, chicken noodle hot dish and for bringing Ian's cake!
