Rob IV's Baptism

We went home to Mandeville this past weekend for Rob IV's Baptism. The baptism was performed at the 11 o'clock service at the local church my family attends. Rob IV was so cute in his christening gown. The gown has special meaning in Rob's family because it has been worn by his father and his brothers and sisters, it was also worn by Rob and all of his cousins. The 'Great Mimi' then embroiders the child's name and birthday on the back of the gown. Very cool! However, during his baptism just as the minister was putting the water on his head he threw up all over the gown in front of the entire church, it was even caught on the big screen. It was pretty funny and got a lot of laughs. We did manage to get a few pictures of him in the gown before the spit up episode.

After the service we went back to Rob's parents home for a lunch with the family. Here are few pictures from the weekend below. You can check out all of the pictures at;
