Here's Declan wearing the baptismal gown that Brian's grandmother made for his mom to wear at her christening and that Brian and all of his brothers (and since then, their kids, including Maeve) wore at theirs:

Fr. Ryan, who was one of Brian's high school teachers and who also officiated at our wedding and Maeve's christening, addressing the family:


Declan didn't even cry when he got wet:

Brian's brother Jack and his wife, Leslie, Declan's godparents:

Declan and Maeve with parents and grandparents:

Just the four of us:

Declan with his sister, parents and godparents:

The whole gang:

If Maeve looks listless in these pictures, it's because she was sick. We didn't find that out for sure until just when we arrived back at Brian's parents' house, where she promptly threw up her oatmeal and strawberries as we were preparing to take her out of her car seat. Sad but true.
Wow,what a special day. Beautiful and memorable! I totally remember Fr. Ryan from your wedding... he was such a nice guy! Glad it all worked out.
