Bradley's Baptism

Bradley's Baptism was a whole day event. It was scheduled for 1pm, so we already started preparing by shifting our meals in the morning. We had an early breakfast and then a little bit more around 11am. We then headed out around 12pm to arrive just before 1pm.

The schedule was about the same as it was for Wesley's 3 years ago. The Baptism was at The Church of Edward the Confessor, in Cindy & Wil's neighborhood. It was a short mass with just the gospel and then the priest performed baptism for 3 babies. Things seemed to go by quickly. We were up first, followed by the other 2 families. Bradley didn't make a sound as water was poured over his head 3 times... a lot of water! Then his head was heavily greased. The 2nd kid was the same. The 3rd broke the streak and cried a little.

After the ceremony, we had a late lunch at The Orient, also de ja vu from Wesley's Baptism. It was small banquet style meal with all of the usual dishes. Then we spent the rest of the day at Cindy & Wil's place.
