HAPPY BIRTHDAY DANE THOMAS!!!

Well, Dane is one year old. We celebrated his birthday together by doing Dane's two favorite things: playing and eating.
This morning we played around the house and ate chocolate chip waffles. Then we napped and played some more. For lunch Dane had chicken nuggets and apple fries. Then we took Dane to ToysRus so that he could pick out his present, where he got a little special recognition from Geoffrey's Birthday Club. He picked out a laptop that he can open and close and open and close and open and close... I don't know if he's noticed it makes noises and lights up as well, as he's busy and content with the opening and closing of it.
When we got home we had a family pool party and played outside. For dinner, Dane had a meal fit for a kid: his first Kid's Cuisine. And he... ate... it... ALL. So his usual dessert of vanilla wafers or animal cookies was replaced by a small piece of his first birthday cake, sans frosting (got to save something for his party). Needless to say, he made short work of it. We read him part of Dr. Seuss' "Happy Birthday To You", which we'll write him a message in, and got him ready for bed. 2 hours late.
He had a great birthday and now he's one year old. I don't think we have to tell you how incredibly proud we are of our big boy and I'm confident he'll always know how very much he is loved.

Happy Birthday, Dane Thomas.
You are our everything.
