Dedication Sunday

Shane and I dedicated Silas to the Lord today during our Sunday worship service. It was a sweet experience to stand with other parents, their babies, and our pastor, committing together to raise our children in a way that would please and honor Christ. Our prayer is that our son will grow to be a man with godly character who loves the Word and is passionate to serve the Lord.

We were sad that none of our family got to be with us on this special day, but we know they all were thinking of us. Thanks to Nana and Papa, Silas was dressed for the occasion. I think you'll agree he was incredibly adorable...

All dressed and ready to go...


We didn't get pictures of the actual dedication, but had it videoed so our families can see it later. Poor baby was so tired after the service...
After church, Silas had just about had enough. Tired and hungry, he was ready to get home. So after a good meal and a long nap, we headed to the backyard for a photo shoot. Here are some of our favorites...
