Andy's Dedication

We had the privilege of dedicating Andy at church today. It was an extra special time for our family, as our entire small group participated. Two of the families went at the 9:00 service, and we went at the 10:30 service with the other family. Thanks, Noel, for helping with the photos.

I had to give Suzy a little "pep talk" in the beginning in hopes she wouldn't do something appropriate for a three year old. ;)
I had an arsenal of M&Ms to help us get through the prayers.


A little mid-service bonus to ensure we make it all the way through.
Thank you, dear friends, for joining in our celebration in the promise to do our best with our little boys. I am so grateful to have such Godly support to go through this journey together.
Rob's parents were able to join us. A special treat.
The daddies and their boys.
I hope they are great buddies like their big sisters.
Nate is exerting his dominance while he still can. He started out as a big bruiser, but Andy is quickly catching up to him! As a side, do you notice how unaffected Andy is? He is such a mellow kid. He didn't even flinch.
Sweet big sister for Nate.

I think Pawpop is a bit taken by our little Smith.
We furthered the celebration with brunch at the club and Suzy got to drive the cart for the first time today. She LOVED it! Thanks, everyone, for sharing in our special day!
