'twas the weekend before Christmas...

...so what could be better than packing in more activity than you can shake a stick at. Mike, Betty Ann, and Baby Aidan headed into town, running on 'we've got a new baby'-time.....way late. ;-) Saturday before Christmas saw us heading to my cousin Brian's wedding. Before the wedding, I took the kids over to Grandma and Grandpa's house, where they showed off their duds in front of the Christmas tree.


Brian and Noelle had a beautiful ceremony.


At the reception, the 'gang' of girls got together for a great picture. Thanks to Melissa for opening the gates, and look at the pretty girls that are following her into the family.


One great day deserves another. Sunday brought Kate's baptism and a baby shower for Aidan. Big brother's Patrick and Owen were proud of their baby sister on her special day.


Aidan, the other star of the day, enjoyed having lots of family around to help he and Kate celebrate their special occasion. Aidan even got to meet his great Grandma Betty....


Of course, he also got to meet his Aunt Beth, and after the part she wanted to see how much her new nephew weighed. Too bad the scale was in the cold car. We let it warm up, but Aidan was definitely not happy about this adventure! YIKES!!!!


Once again, lots more pictures out on Picasa, including "babyseat row" and of course, more pics like this of Kate.
