Kyla was christened on Sunday, December 30th at Overtown Parish Church. The minister dubbed her a wee bonnie lass and she absolutely was. Kyla just stared at the minister during the baptism and was just a doll during the entire service. She looked so beautiful in her christening gown and the knitted cardigan and bonnet she received when she was born from Auntie Shelia and Uncle Jim. Thanks also to her godparents Janice and Iain.
Janice, Pamela and Lesley all graciously took me out on Friday night for a little girl's time - sadly because our plane was delayed we missed the day of shopping, But c'est la vie! I had such a good time and those Cointreau and lemonades went down mighty easy (thanks Pamela)!
Few pictures of our lazy afternoon. And yes, Kyla absolutely LOVES to be held upside down. She will throw herself backwards just to get you to do it again.
John cooked a wonderful dinner and all three of us sat down to a family Christmas dinner. Kyla also had turkey for the first time - along with pureed green beans and squash. She likes picking food up and feeding herself, so the turkey entertained her for awhile. Not sure how much she actually got in her mouth as it was stuck to her arms, hands, clothes and highchair.
We tried our best to get a good Christmas photo of Kyla, but she was having nothing of it. She flat out refused to look at the camera or smile. Oh well. Willful like her father! ha-ha!
