Dan's finger compared to his arm!Today is D's 5th birthday...I can not believe that he was so little when he was born - 5pounds 3ounces. He was born 5 weeks premature and spent 10 days in the hospital. It was a very hard Christmas because we could not take our sweet little boy home with us. We actually spent Christmas at the hospital to be with him. We missed Christmas with our families that year. Dan's family graciously made the trek down to the hospital to spend a couple of hours with us even though they could not get into the ICU because the hospital was limiting visitors - it was a really bad flu season and they didn't want the babies to get sick! Here are some pictures of him along the way...
And today, you would never know he was born premature...he is a smart (sometimes too smart for his own good), healthy boy with a HUGE imagination. He loves to cuddle with his mommy and is also very sweet (most of the time) with his brother and sister. It is so fun to watch him WANT to learn how to read and various other things. He has been into Dinosaurs and Ocean Life lately and "thinks" that he is an expert at it. he can sometimes be the biggest pain in the **** but most times is a great joy in my heart! Here are some recent pics of him...

Happy Birthday D! (or Santa Claus, or Spiderman, or Captain Hook, or whoever you are today). He really does have an imagination.
CJ is starting to do that too now, when we call him by his name. He'll say, "I'm not____, I'm Ironman!"
Happy Birthday to D!! That is so fun! Time really does fly~
He is such an imaginative little boy! I hope he has a great birthday!
Happy Birthday, D!
I remember meeting him when he was little. He was so polite and talked well above his age.
He can sure be a little stinker now, but he is really funny, and very smart.
Such cute pics!! Time goes so fast doesn't it!? Tell him Happy Birthday!
