Yet, Another Roman Catholic...

It's official! Jackie is our families newest Catholic. Fr. Brian O'Brien baptized Jackie on August 9th. She was looking smashing in her beautiful gown (thanks to Mom and Dad Dowdell), cute booties (thanks to Mom and Bill Morgan) and elegant baby bracelet (thanks to Dad and Judy Swindle). As you can see from the picture, she needed a snack break about 5 minutes into the ceremony. When a girl wants to eat, she needs to eat! The ceremony was lovely, surrounded by family and friends. As Father O'Brien said, "we can all learn from Jackie what it means to be dependent on God and his love for us." Congratulations Jackie - you are now part of a welcoming and wonderful faith.

Jackie loved her first swim in the pool with Mommy and Grandma. Once she was used to the temperature, she went right to sleep. :-)

2 years

It was two years ago today that Kathleen and I got married. It has been an amazing two years. Looking back it is amazing to think about how much our lives has changed in the last two years. A great dog, a new house and a beautiful baby girl. These have been the greatest two years of my life and I can't wait to see where the next year takes us.

I love you Kathleen!

Mom Time

Jackie and Mom have spent lots of time together this week because Dad's been in class. The verdict is still out on who Jackie looks like. We're thinking she's the perfect mix. :-)

Look at Me!!

Jackie's new expressions are our favorite part of the day. :-)
