Maelyne's baptism & Henry's first Father's Day!

Maelyne received the Sacrament of Baptism at St. Mark's Catholic Church in San Marcos on June 20, 2009. Deacon Dennis Sullivan officiated the ceremony and it was attended by the godparents and some family members and friends (30 people altogether). It was a special ceremony since Maelyne was the only child who was being baptized that day. She was welcomed to the Christian world! Our family and friends came together in spirit to witness this wonderful event. Thank you to the Godparents who have accepted the responsibility of a new life. Lunch followed at the Alfresco's Italian Buffet in San Marcos as well. Maelyne's homecoming and baptismal celebration is on June 27, 2009 at the Pearl Chinese Cuisine in Rancho Bernardo. See you then...
It is Henry's first father's day (Happy Father's Day honey!), so we started the day out attending mass followed by a family lunch at Applebee's restaurant. The three of us enjoyed the delicious food we have ordered.
In the afternoon, we headed to Mira Mesa at my mom's house then paid a visit at my dad's resting place. It is also his birthday on the 22nd and he should have been 88 years old. Happy father's day and happy birthday dad! We missed you!

Back at the house, Henry and Maelyne had their time playing just the two of them. I could tell they were having so much fun because I heard a lot of laughs. Nice father and daughter quality time.
June 22nd also marks our third month with Maelyne. I could not believe we have been together this long but it seems like it had just happened yesterday. Maelyne is growing fast!
We just hope she's always healthy and become a good daughter to us.

Happy Father's Day Dad!
