Chris and Kate gave us the honor of asking us to be Nora's Godparents so we went out for her baptism the last weekend of September! We had a GREAT visit with the Melhus Clan despite it raining pretty much the entire time we were there. Lars and I loved having the freedom to read, watch a movie in the middle of the day and sleep in! I hope Chris and Kate didn't think we were too lazy, but man-oh-man if felt good to put the feet up for a few days!! Nana and Papa stayed with the kids at our house and they had a great time. Bergen and Annika kept them very busy for those 3 days!
Nora did beautifully at her baptism. She had fallen asleep in Chris' arms during the service, woke up when the Priest poured water on her head, looked a little confused, and then promptly fell back asleep. Afterwards Chris and Kate hosted a lunch at their house with Kate's family (or at least the family that lives in driving distance). We hadn't seen her family since their wedding so it was great to catch up with everyone (although Facebook does keep us connected on the time in between face-to-face visits!)
Here we are waiting to be baptised. . . sorry it is a little dark:
Here is a little video of me trying to button a very upset Nora into her pajama's for the night. . . and Lars being very "helpful" by taking video:
