Baby Dedication instead of Christening

Today Patti was dedicated back to the Lord. As Christian parents, my husband and I decided that Christening was not appropriate since it is synonymous with the Baptism. Today we made a vow to raise her by Christian principles until she is able to decide upon her own free will whether she will follow Christ or another path. Just as Hannah prayed for a child, so did we. Because He granted our request, we respectfully follow in her footsteps to give our daughter back to God.

Baby Shower

The baby shower was Saturday. There are a lot of things that I could say, but I won't. However I did get plenty of diapers and other useful baby items. I'm making a lot of preparations and praying that God will help me through this process. On Sunday I talked to the pastor about the christening and baby dedication. This will be an exciting time for my family to come together for a joyous occasion.
As for the medical side of things, the baby still hasn't turned head down so I'm a bit anxious about Tuesday. The obgyn is going to attempt an external cephalic version and hopefully I can avoid a cesarean. To inspire some happy thoughts, I have included a few pictures today. Below is the nursery, pack n play, and the baby travel system (3 in 1).
