Happy 1st Birthday Diego!

Here is Diego on February 24th, 2008... Welcome to the world baby Boy!Here he is today... Happy 1st Birthday Baby Boy!One year ago today, I spent 29 hours in labor so we could welcome this sweet child into our lives. Every minute was worth it (and bearable because I had an epidural!) and when he arrived we were so excited. Before he was born, we didn't know if he was a boy or a girl...although deep down I knew he was a boy the whole time. This made his entrance to the world all the more special to us. We have had the most wonderfully blessed and challenged year. We enjoy watching each new skill and milestone and all the everyday wonderful things a baby brings to the family. Things have changed from the day he was born, of course. We are used to having him around and even though there is something new everyday, I think we can finally say we are comfortable being parents and confident in our ability to raise him into a loving child. Diego is an absolute joy with a very fun personality, a little giggle that makes us both laugh along and a cry that has made us cry along with him too. We love you Diego, Happy Birthday!
We spent the day together as a family today. We went to iHop for breakfast (incidentally today was Free Pancake Day, BONUS!) Diego really wanted nothing to do with eating breakfast and for some reason didn't even like pancakes today, not even with syrup on them! We came home, played with some new toys, took a nap and then we made this craft project together. All three of us were involved with it. Its adorable! The handprints aren't as good as I'd hoped, and this was our second attempt, but its good enough and I am glad we did it today, on his 1st birthday!
