William is 19 Months Old // His Baptism Day

Nineteen Months Old

My beautiful boy you make my heart just melt in to mush. I have to admit, your tantrums have started to become challenging sometimes however this is my favourite age so far. You are just amazing, your brain is constantly watching and taking everything in like a sponge and I feel very privileged to be able to watch you develop and learn so rapidly. Everything you see, you copy. The noises, the actions and you're coming on with the words too! I am so very very proud of you my little boy. I am so excited to see you become an older brother but I'm so anxious that it will mean we won't get to spend so much time together being us.

This month's memory -

On Sunday 29th April 2018, you were finally baptised. Mummy has been trying to get this day done for as long as you were alive, but a misplaced baptism certificate for Mummy in a separate parish meant it was put off and rearranged plenty of times.
We had a small family gathering to celebrate and it was just perfect in Mummy's eyes, you was very tired and only got to nap in the pram for 30 minutes, so all our pictures, you had your dummy in and was less than impressed with the ceremony, but it was a lovely day and you are a very loved little boy. Afterwards we had cake and lunch at Grandma's house.
