May 2008

Most of these pics are from Zoe's first trip to the Zoo. She really enjoyed it, but was exhausted (as you can see by some of the shots).

April 2008

Ah, the month of April. Zoe starting eating a lot more and getting stuck in the bars of her crib a lot more. Fun stuff.

March 2008

Here are some pics from March. One of the major events was Zoe's baptism. Those pics are in a previous post, so I will not repeat them here.

February 2008

Okay, we've been horrible at keeping a blog. It fell down the list of priorities which included moving into downtown Kansas City, getting into a new job, and adjusting to the new role of being parents. But thanks to all who continue to "encourage" us to get this going again (especially Jennifer Burgett, who has turned into quite the blogger!).

So we will try to catch up...one month at a time beginning with February pics:

Zoe's Baptism Service

Zoe and Mom after getting ready for church. As you can see, Zoe is extremely excited.

Zoe is wearing a white dress that was her Grandma Reynolds'. It was one that hand-made for Grandma Reynolds by her grandmother.










Zoe, Mom, and Dad at the baptism service at Jacob's Well. We love our church!







Here we are with one of our pastors, Tim Keel.












A great highlight was having Mike and Vicki King up front with us as Zoe was baptized. Mike King was Rachel's youth pastor when she was growing up. He is now on staff at Jacob's Well where we attend. He preached on this particular Sunday. Click here to hear his message, "Where Are The Adults?"


The Jacob's Well community prayed a prayer together for all of the children being baptized. It is a beautiful prayer. It is also printed on Zoe's baptism certificate and personalized:

Dear Heavenly Father,
Together, we pray that
Zoe's mind will know Your wisdom.
Her eyes will see Your glory.
Her ears will hear Your words.
Her mouth will speak Your truth.
Her heart will be Jesus' home.
Her hands will do Your work.
That Zoe's knees would bow
only before You, the Lord Our God.
And that her feet would follow You
in the way of Jesus all the days of her life.
Amen.
