Amelia's Baptism

Amelia was baptized at the Cathedral Basilica SS Peter & Paul in Philly on Jan 1st, 2011. It was really nice & she will be well-guided by her godparents, Carmen & Elizabeth. Amelia was extremely 'well-behaved' throughout the 'service', but started SCREAMING at the end & unlike her big sister- pacifiers don't do it for her. So we didn't get a ton of great pictures at the end, but it was an awesome time.
We had a nice lunch at Tom & Arlene's after and then a bunch of us braved the streets to watch the mummers parade.

 Carmen & the whole family being 'prepped' by the priest (and killing time, waiting for all the grandparents to get there)

 Family shot after the baptism, getting Lily to stand still was nearly impossible

 Lily loved playing with the Gundel boys...

 Amelia is enjoying being the center of attention

Huge thanks to everyone that came!!! Your thank you notes will get there eventually. :)
