God Bless Cecilia

Cecilia Mae Munoz was baptized into the Catholic church on Sunday!
Craig was asked to be the Godfather and give a reading. The ceremony was intimate and lovely, held at Our Lady of Lourdes in Genoa with Father Al Ceranowski (a family friend and retired priest).
Miss Cecilia was sooooo good! Smiling and cheerful. Not a whimper out of her.
Proud parents

Steve's sister, Diana, is Celia's godmother.
Oh my gosh! Check out this dress! My mother-in-law MADE it out of the fabric of her own wedding dress! So sweet.

Thankfully it was just a small, private ceremony because neither of my kids wanted to sit still. Will wandered the church carrying his cow figurine (of course) and Soph and I had to stand and move around a bit too.
This was after the ceremony.

Riedeman kids and grandkids.
Here's Will leading Sophie around by the hand again. :)
Cecilia changed into a lovely party dress afterwards and we all enjoyed some very tasty food at her parents lavish home. What a nice celebration!

Sophie actually napped before we went to the ceremony and then again in the pack 'n play at the party. But Will just skipped nap and this is how he looked about two minutes after leaving their driveway at about 4:30-ish. :)
