Year 1 Draws To An End

Gilbert turns 1 on Sunday! The past few weeks both Kristen and I have been nostalgic as we have thought back over Gilbert's first year. Kristen, especially, has been rifling through all the pictures to see how much he has changed. Misty eyes included.

And changed he has! Looking at pictures from the beginning, it is hard for us to even remember how small he was when we came home from the hospital. We all think our babies are the cutest and we were no exception. But when we look at some of the photos and see that wrinkly mass I wonder what other people might have been thinking. Ha!

Luckily some things have not changed. His laugh seems to be the same. And many of his facial expressions we see today were present in the beginning.

But even better is seeing how Gilbert has developed! Each day seems to be more fun than the one prior. And the best part is that we have been able to share it with you...family, friends, friends of friends, co-workers, and even the blog passerby.

We appreciate your devotion (or at least the occasional visit!) to taking the time to stop by and see how the Little Man is doing. It has indeed been an eventful year and I'm sure Year 2 will be even more so...STAY TUNED!
