Jackson's Baptism

Mr. Jackson Magoo was baptized on Saturday (3/10) at St. Mary's. The same church that we were married in. Most of you guys were there and saw that it was under renovation, much to Erica's disappointment! It's been completely renovated and looks absolutely gorgeous!

Anyhow, Jackson's Uncle Diego and Aunt Stephanie were his godparents. Jackson did so well!!! He sat nice and still on his Aunt Steph's lap, didn't cry when he was anointed and had water poured over his head, and cooperated nicely during picture taking! There were even a few comments from other guests that he was such a well behaved baby! Yep, that's our Magoo! ;)

After the service, Jackson and his whole family (his great-grandpa, grandparents, aunts and uncles, his cousins, a very special family friend) all went to eat dinner. Magoo was so worn out from being an awesome little dude during the service that he slept through most of dinner. Since he was asleep, we had to take it upon ourselves to open all the gifts he received. Jackson got some good stuff from the fam. He got a cross, some plaques to hang in his room (Footprints for Children and....hmm...we can't remember the other one...sorry, Annie!), clothes, money, and an exersaucer!!

After dinner, Magoo and the fam then made their way to his great-grandparents house to visit his great-grandma since she wasn't able to make it to the baptism. He had a great time hanging out with her! Around 9 o'clock, he was ready to call it a night! As soon as we got home, he crashed! It was the perfect end to a special day!

Here are some pics from the baptism:

Look how handsome Jackson looks! I can't believe he was so good - Hannah cried all thru hers!
