The Baptism of Isaac Timothy

Isaac Timothy was baptized on Sunday, April 28, 2013, at the 10:00 AM service of St. Paul Lutheran Church in Albion, Michigan.  His sponsors are Emilee Nieman and Pastor Tim Koch and his wife Emily.  We were delighted to have them bear witness to this grand event.  Isaac wore the same baptismal gown his sister, brother and mother wore on their baptismal day.  He slept through the whole service.  Later Mommy and Isaac shared a nap.  7 days postpartum makes for a tired Mommy.

The people of St. Paul were especially gracious in celebrating with our family.  The choir director arranged a special piece for the choir to sing to honor the young baptismal candidate.  After the service over 100 people shared a potluck dinner.  It was a blessed day for all of us.

Mommy, Daddy and Baby Isaac

 Isaac Timothy was born at 6:40 AM on Sunday, April 21, 2013.  He waited an extra 11 days to be born, but when he decided to come Sunday morning around 4 AM we had just enough time to call our sitter, get to the hospital and have what the nurse described as a "lovely delivery."  Isaac measured 8 pounds 14 ounces and was 22 inches long.

Our family

Olivia and Ethan were able to visit Isaac in the hospital.  Olivia was very interested in the hospital bed with all of its buttons to push.  Ethan was happy to see his Mommy and eagerly took the graham crackers I had saved from my lunch.

Isaac is an easy going little guy.  We are blessed to have another happy healthy baby.  He will be baptized on April 28.
