Collin's Baby Dedication (part 1)

The quest for a great family shot continues to elude us. Cas has humored me several times with coordinated outfits, but no photo was taken worthy of a spot on our wall. Every time we are all dressed up with family around us patient enough to take multiple pictures, Collin wants nothing of it.

And Sunday afternoon for his baby dedication, the trend continued. Our church gives parents the opportunity to participate in a ceremony where we publicly dedicate our child to the Lord and promise to pray for him and teach him about Jesus, hoping that Collin will one day decide to trust in God for salvation. We had the grandparents, Uncle Libero, and GGB in attendance:
Collin was sporting a cute outfit, but was in no mood to look at the camera and smile.
This is the closest we got, and really it's only decent of Cas -
Here's an outtake more typical of the pictures that were snapped. I think Collin had just yanked on my hair. Poor Cas, that's what you get for being so tall -
Of course before we got to the church, Collin was willing to pose with Grammy -
My mom called to see what I was wearing. I told her it wasn't too dressy, just what you'd wear to church. Then she had to check - you're not wearing the pink dress, right? We have the same pink dress. No, I'm wearing the blue dress, so don't wear that one. We have almost the same blue dress. Cas thinks we're pathetic.
