Boston is a year old today!

Within the past year, he has learned how to shake hands, pee and poop outside, roll over, and give high-fives, among other things. He has also saved me from a lot of loneliness and tears. I do not regret a single moment that we've had him and I would do it all over again in a heartbeat.

Here's a look at our little man, then and now:

More cuteness here...

and here...

and here...

...in bed with daddy.

...at Jamaica Pond on an early summer evening.

...puh-lease don't bother me. I am perfectly fine where I am.

...if you are asking me to leave this sleeping bag, it better be for a very good reason.

...come on, it's 1AM. put the camera away, woman!

...maybe if I don't look at her, she'll go away.

...my boys. snoring.

what? i'm cold!!
