Twelve Months!

Dylan turned one year old yesterday! I think we are equal parts proud, excited, relieved, and sentimental—it's been such a big year, and he isn't the only one who has grown a ton. Matthew and I have learned so much in our first year as parents.

Dylan and I share a birthday, so we celebrated with a treat at Tartine followed by some playtime at Dolores Park. And this weekend we are throwing him a big bash! We may have gone a little overboard with the party planning, but hey, it's a big deal.

So as we wrap up this photo series, I'm so grateful to have this record of Dylan's first year. To my mind he hasn't changed that much since around six months, but when I look at these photos I see how untrue that is. It's great to have a record of those changes that happened too fast for us to notice. And though we won't be documenting quite as obsessively going forward, we're excited for all the changes yet to come!
