Baptism

Last Sunday, we had Jake baptized. Yes, he is almost 20 months old. It was something we had been putting off for some time. We decided in September that we wanted to have him baptized before Christmas. Well, in the Knutson family, the weekends in the fall are dedicated to hunting. We were able to find a weekend in November that wasn't an opener of any sort. Thanks Matt for giving up going hunting! Jake was baptized at my family's church in Bloomington. Jake was a pretty good sport during the service before the baptisim. When it was the big moment, Jake chose to not be too cooperative. Thankfully, he was quiet about his dislike of the whole event. He just wanted to be in Daddy's arms. Surprise, surprise! Here is a photo of Jake with Joe and me, along with Jake's godparents (Dan-Joe's brother and Jamie-my sister).

After church, we went over to my parents' house for lunch. It was nice to get both sides of the family together to celebrate Jake.

There were no pictures with my parents...on accident. I guess we were going to do it later, but never did. Sorry mom and dad. Also, there were no pictures with Mike, Nikki, and Paige. Paige wasn't feeling all that well. She actually wasn't able to go to church because she got sick in the kitchen right before we were all going to leave. She is feeling much better now!
