Things are going well here, though I am pretty tired. Iain will sleep for a 4-5 hour stretch at night already, so I know I shouldn't complain. I wonder when he will sleep all the way through the night?!? What a happy day that will be. His baptism is set for July 23, which is Brian's 27th birthday. We don't believe that baptism saves Iain, or that it is necessary for anyone's salvation; rather we view this as being very similar to circumscision in the Old Testament: it marks Iain as one of the people of God. He will be raised as a Christian, as a covenant child, and we pray that when he is old he will not depart from the ways of his youth. I'm pledging to raise him as a believer and praying and trusting that Christ will eventually call him and save him. This is a public pronouncement that this baby belongs to God and is part of the visible church of God.

We need to empty the camera because our little guy is changing already! He is 18 days old today. Here are some pictures I took last week:









This is our dog, Peekaboo. She still isn't too sure about this whole baby thing.
