Christening Gown

My MiL is in town visiting, and brought this christening gown from my FiL's side of the family. We're not sure the age of it exactly, but it's at least 92 years old.

We'd like to have the baby baptized in it... IF he/she fits into it at the time we can get the baptism arranged at the church. But even if not, we can still take pictures and all.

The Professor's father and all his siblings were baptized in this gown, as was his Grandfather (the first baby to use it, as far as we know) in 1918.
