Tom,

Acts 2:39 says, "For the promise is to you and to your children, and to all who are afar off, as many as the Lord our God will call." Peter proclaims that salvation through God's Messiah is promised to the Jews, to their children, and to all those who are far off (i.e., the Gentiles, Eph. 2:11-13). Here again is the message of Acts - the gospel is for Jews and Gentiles. Even though only those present may have received baptism that day the promise extended to their children and beyond.

Yes Wes it was extended to the children but again I'm sure you would agree that only those children who believed (even if they were baptized) received the promise. So while it may have been extended to the family it was the individuals of the family that received the blessing.

yours,
