Arkansas and the “Water”
Hobbit | 5/25/2006 Thu May 25, 2006 @ 8:36 amThis past weekend we all loaded up and headed to Arkansas to have Lisa baptized. That was a lot of fun. We made the drive safe and sound in one day down there, actually got there around 3 in the afternoon. Then Mom and I headed to Walmart to pick up sandwiches and a cake for the after baptism party.
Saturday we all had yummy breakfast, then loaded up the car and drove to Morrilton to have Lisa baptized. We got there a bit early so we just hung out with the priest and Lisa ate some. Then once everyone showed up we got things rolling. Lisa was a perfect angel (isn’t she always), right up until Fr. Charles poured the water on her head. It was even warm water, but she did NOT like it, so she screamed, but as soon as he stopped with the water, she stopped with the screaming and went to being a quiet non-fussy baby!
Then we headed back to the lake for a Par-tay. Lisa had a swim suit so I took her swimming… The water was ummm… well chilly, so she wasn’t into the swimming, but since she had had an accident in her suit on the way to the water, I dunked her at least up to her bum, so I could rinse her off a bit. She really wailed after that. But as soon as she was in a towel and bundled up by Big Lisa she was happy.
On Sunday David’s son Cody came up, and so Lisa and Cody, and Cody’s half-brother Dillan fed the fishies. They were as big as Lisa!!! I had to wake her up to feed them, but she did stay awake and at least watch the giant fishies.
On Monday we drove back to Missouri, got here around 4:30 or 5 I think. Lisa did good on the return trip, right up until Jefferson City, which is about 30 minutes south of Columbia… She started wailing, she wanted food, and she wanted outta her car seat! We managed to make it home though, and the she ate and was happy again!
