Declan turns ONE!

I know I say this all the time, but where the does the time go?  It really does NOT seem like it was a year ago that we were rushing to the hospital to have baby Declan.  The memory of it all is still fresh in my mind like it happened last week and here my baby is now ONE year old.  Declan has brought so much joy to our family.  He has the cutest laugh and such a bright smile.  He has grown up so much in just the last little while.  He can go up and down the stairs on his own, he now walks more than he crawls, eats everything and anything we eat, and wants to be right in the thick of things with his brothers. 
His birthday was a pretty low-key day since he really had no clue what was even going on.  We ordered a free birthday cake from Albertsons, which was perfect because there was just enough for our family with no leftovers--therefore, no temptation!  Declan dove right into his slice of cake.  He shows signs of being a cake lover (like his dad & mom), unlike his brothers.  He had no interest in opening his gifts, but was excited to play with them once they were open.

His one year stats--he weighs 24.2 pounds (75%) and is 30 inches long (60%). 
We are so grateful that Declan is a part of our family.  Happy Birthday Declan! 
We love you!
