Baptism, Grandparents, Aquarium, and cousin's from Kansas

What a busy month we have had and I have lots of pictures to show off. A few weekends ago, Kaitlyn was baptized at our old church in Richmond. All of our wonderful friends and Shane's parents came for the special day. Shane's parents then stayed the rest of the week to visit and hang out with the kids. While they were here, we visited the Baltimore National aquarium. We saw lots of fish, sting rays, turtles, sharks and even Nemo (at least thats what Grayson thought)!!! There are also a couple of pictures of Grayson at his swim party this past week. He absolutely loved the slide and diving board and we found that his swim lessons are paying off. He had to wear a life jacket of course, but had no problem swimming to the ladder all by himself after each jump. Finally, just this past weekend we made a trip near the Newport News, VA area to visit our nieces and nephew from Kansas who were visiting their grandparents (my brother-in-laws family). We had a wonderful time with them and can't wait to see them again at Christmas (Grayson especially can't wait). They were all big helpers when it came to taking care of Kaitlyn.
