Dominic's Homecoming Countdown

Dominic has been very busy lately! This past week, we took a trip to Frank's school to meet all of the kids and teachers. He was a celebrity for the day! He has been quite the school traveler since he has been home. He visited my middle school, Nana's pre-school and all the classes at Grandmom's school! The kids, big and small, all love him! He made quite a few girlfriends at Frank's high school . . . should I start worrying about older women? Saturday night we went to 2 graduation parties for students of Frank. Dominic had the chance to meet a Guatemalan buddy at one party. It was really neat!

Today was a VERY big day for Dominic. It was his baptism. He was a very well-behaved little boy. He did fall asleep in his mom's arms for a few minutes. Unfortunately, his nap didn't last very long and he was a little cranky when the holy water woke him up! He looked so handsome in his little white suspender outfit. We had a nice lunch with the entire family at a nearby restaurant and celebrated with cake at our house later in the afternoon. Some of our good friends stopped by to congratulate Dominic as well. We know that Aunt Meg and Uncle Steve will be wonderful Godparents!

Dominic has been pretty smiley lately, even though some new teeth are on their way. He had his 9 month appointment at the doctor's earlier in the week. He has grown an inch and gained over 2 pounds since he came home. I don't know how he gains any weight because he NEVER sits still . . . he is always on the go! He is a great eater, a super-fast crawler, and an amazing stander-upper. He has been having lots and lots of fun with us and of course we have been having lots of fun with him! Daddy is done school this week and we are so excited for summer to begin. Enjoy the pics!
