This is Bowen on the morning of his baptism. He looks so handsome in his special white outfit. It's the same outfit that Gavin and Tysen wore for their baptisms.
We tried to get a decent family picture before the baptism, but the kids had already sat through church service and it was too close to lunch and nap time. Needless to say, they were pretty cranky and we didn't get very good pictures.
We felt so blessed that our families were able to be there for this special day and for our special baby.
Father Roc O'Connor was the priest that baptized Bowen. He did a wonderful job.
Grandad and Grandma Briggs are Bowen's Godparents.
Father Roc O'Connor let Alexa help with the candle. Matt and I were holding our breath that she didn't catch anything on fire. Luckily, she did a great job and nobody got hurt!

After the baptism, the whole family went out for lunch at one of my favorite restaurants in Omaha- Spaghetti Works! Now that Tysen's had some food, he'll smile for the camera.

Alexa must think she's a princess surrounded by all these boys!
