Tia Christine and Cousin Melody all ready for church but Emma has barely woken up.
Emma has changed into the beautiful baptismal gown Tia Christine and Tio Kevin have given her. Ooops...Tia Christine must be real tired.
Again in her beautiful gown before the ceremony.
Getting ready for the baptism.
Father Hanh baptizing Emmama.
Emma was a really good girl. She didn't even complain one bit.
After the soul cleansing...
And the baptismal candle lighting.
Chevo and Emma with Aunt Elva after the ceremony.
Emma with her parents, Godparents and Father Hanh.
Emmama with Kay.
Emma with Natalie (Chevo's cousin) who is 7 months pregnant, Madisyn and David.
With Stephanie (Chevo's cousin, Natalie's sister).
Emma's cousins, Halo and Melody.
Emmama's cake (forgot to take a picture before the cake was cut though).
Emma with Grandma Carmen.
And Aunt Lisa with her son, little Elmo.
Grandpa Chevo making everyone laugh with his story of the "Orientals" giving head massages while he was serving in Vietnam.
A self potrait of Emma with Mommy.
Rosie is a good friend of Godmom Christine. She was also at the baby shower before Emmama was born.
A self potrait of Melody and me.
Emma and her Godparents in front of their pretty Christmas tree.
Trying to prop her up to get a picture of her in the beautiful gown.
Not very successful since the gown and bedding were just too slippery.
Still too shook up about the whole picture posing.
Much better now that we have our "bao ku".
Opening our Christmas gifts from Christine and Kevin.
I got the pretty purple bracelet and Chevo was unwrapping our portable DVD player.
Rosie and Emmama.
The big giftbag is full of Emma's presents (her wardrobe is set till she turns 1 yr old).
Emma enjoying her new ducky bathtub courtesy of Godmom Christine.
She loves taking bath in her new ducky.
*A special thank to Kay for capturing Emma's baptism pictures.
