a sad day for Cody!
Of course getting baptized was very exciting for Cody. He was very happy and also a little nervous. He asked me that morning while we were getting ready "what if I have to do it twice?"
I said oh, if that happens then you will have a fun story to tell about how you got dunked twice!!! I also let him know Aunt Paige was lucky and got two go twice. Cody's grandma Pam aka Frammy spoke on the Holy Ghost and did a great job thank you, it meant a lot to Cody. The twins were horrible especially Carter I didn't get to sit down more then 5 minutes with him. During the talks I told him if he ran off again he would get soap. I knew he had no idea what that meant so I grab him seconds after just telling him that & headed for the bathroom! I gave him soap trying to explain why, and guess what he loved it and signed MORE & even said yum! I just about died, what would I do soap was always a great threat with Cody & Kelsey. Afterwards a big group of us went to eat and I made sure I sat on the other end of the table far away from Carter-I needed a break!!! Thank you to all the family who came to support us it was a good day.

But, there was one sad thing that happened Cody's best friend Landon moved. The minute we got home he was changed and heading down to his house. They played until 9p.m. and finally had to say their goodbyes! We have promised that we will stop and visit next time we are visiting family in Utah. Landon's family had a garage sale the weekend before and his mom said he could sell his old bike. Landon said no I want to give it to Cody, so he cleaned it up and gave it to him. He is such a sweet boy! When I was tucking Cody in bed just talking to him about Landon he was holding back the tears.

That is such a sweet story about him being worried about having to be dunked twice! So sad that his buddy left. Cody is so tender hearted. What a sweetie!

I'm so sad Landon is moving he has been such a sweet friend.I could hardly read this without getting a little emotional! It was a very special day!
Congratulations Cody!! Sorry to hear that his friend moved - bummer!!
What a special experience baptisms are. I'm glad he had a good experience at least. So sorry about the yummy soap. I used salsa with Davis and it worked really well. I would even keep Taco Bell's HOT salsa in my purse with me. I hope you find something that will help movtivate him. So sorry.
