It was a lovely dry and bright winter's day. The sun came out especially for our little man as he was christened. The service was at St Teresa's Church on the Glen Road. It was a joint christening with 5 other babies... none, of course, as absolutely gorgeous as our Liam. All of the babies were very well behaved throughout the service with no peeps, except for a few burps from one of the little girls. Liam looked adorable in his little outfit. Here he is getting ready in the house. His robe has these cute little bloomers as well as a bonnet that I didn't make him wear.
The outfit was a cotton and linen blend and had a gorgeous celtic cross embroidered on the front. Aunt Linda, his godmother, also brought over a baptismal bib which was embroidered with his name and date of the christening.
Here we are going into the church. It was a chilly day, but at least dry and bright!
After the service we all headed to the Balmoral hotel for a small reception. Loads of our friends joined us with around 50 people enjoying a buffet along with a traditional Irish music session arranged by Liam's godfather, Uncle Gerard. I got a cute little cake which was supper tasty!
Liam got tons of presents. Lovely clothes, beautiful picture frames, books, keepsake albums, toys, stuffed animals and other bits and pieces. He made out like a bandit!
We all had a really great day!

Hey Girl, I have to say that I do think that Liam is the most adorable baby. He just keeps getting more and more handsome. Miss you lots. Love from Jersey from Me and Hailey xoxo
So Sweet with his little bloomers!
