Brian Dowling and Arthur Gourounlian have celebrated their baby Blu’s christening on Saturday.
The couple announced the birth of their second child, Blu Amar Rose Dowling Gourounlian, in June.
The two have been married since 2015, and already share a daughter named Blake, aged 2, who they welcomed via surrogate.
Now, Brian and Arthur have taken to Instagram to share some sweet pics from the special day as they celebrated with friends and family.
The couple captioned the post: “What a GORGEOUS day for a Christening🕯️!”
“Our beautiful baby girl, Blu Amar Rose Dowling Gourounlian, was christened on 05.10.24 🩵”
“It is another day we will cherish, surrounded by all our loved ones ♥️”
The christening took place in St. Brigid’s Church, Straffan despite the family having moved from Kildare to Dublin.
Sharing the birth of their second child on Instagram in June, Brian and Arthur wrote: “Please be upstanding for the arrival of our BEAUTIFUL DAUGHTER, Blu Amar Rose Dowling Gourounlian.”
”Blu was delivered safely on Sunday, June 23rd, at 13:33h, weighing 6lb 2ozs.”
”Myself & Papa @gourounlian are ABSOLUTELY BESOTTED & actually can’t believe we now have two little beauties to keep us on our toes”
Praising Brian’s sister Aoife, who acted as their surrogate, they continued: “@effidy_dowling_, you are a SUPERSTAR & we are, as always, FOREVER GRATEFUL.”
”You stayed so calm, considering it wasn’t exactly the birth plan we had initially hoped for.”
”Baby Blu was adamant to arrive on Sunday, the 23rd of June & nothing or no one was going to stop her.”
“Big Sister Blake, you have been activated 🤩”
