Jaya's family arrived 45 minutes early to attend the baptism, which started at 3 p.m.

All smiles for a family moment are (from left) Dylan's proud lola Elizabeth Ramsey, Gary Gotidoc, Sabriya, Jaya, and Dylan.

Here with Elizabeth Ramsey (2nd from right) were some guests who arrived earliest: (from left) Eat Bulaga! big boss Malou Choa-Fagar, Ruby Rodriguez, Jackie Lou Blanco, and GMA-7 SVP for Entertainment TV Wilma Galvante.

Sabriya Gotidoc, Jaya's first child, had previously been envious of the new baby.

"Dati sabi niya, 'Put the baby on the floor!,'" the singer-mom shares. "Ngayon, hindi na... love na."

Dylan's godmother, Cacai Velasquez-Mitra, attended the baptism with her husband Raul Mitra. Both are good friends of Jaya through the Sunday noontime show SOP, where they all work.

Lita Caisip, sister of Gary Gotidoc's mother, rocked the sleeping Dylan 15 minutes before the baptism started.

Fr. Julius Angelo Pelarion, assistant parish priest of Sta. Maria Della Strada Parish Church, officiated the baptism. In his homily, he asked the godparents to "give a good example of Christian living."

Godparent Allan K (wearing red) gives his personal blessing to Dylan as proud dad Gary Gotidoc looks on.

During the baptism, former popular comedienne Elizabeth Ramsey sat with her granddaughter Sabriya near  the lectern. Beside them is AJ, son of Ruby Rodriguez.

Gary Gotidoc and Jaya pray the "Our Father." Behind them are (from left) godfathers Allan K, Arnie Mendaros, and Mark Gotidoc.

Fr. Pelarion pours water on Dylan's head, as the sign of a new life with God.

Floating in the background is a pink balloon of Patrick Star, a lead character in the Nickelodeon cartoon Spongebob Squarepants. Elizabeth Ramsey bought the balloon from a peddler outside the church and gave it to Sabriya.

Gary uses the flame of the Paschal candle to light his own candle. The fire symbolizes the everlasting presence of God with the baptized child and his godparents.

GMA-7 executive Wilma Galvante congratulates the couple after she lights her own candle.

The group receives the final blessing.

Dingdong, the only godparent among the three, said he wants Dylan to grow up a "God-fearing, talented and respectful boy."

Ninang Jolina Magdangal just wants Dylan to be "healthy palagi."
