The Final Days of the Only Child

It would seem the end of an era has finally arrived, as has Lisa's due date. While we're still only three, it's probably pretty safe to say that by the time the next entry is up we will be four.

As we have said before, Sonny will be a great big brother. He's developed into such a wonderful little boy - smart, friendly, curious, cheery, adventurous, and just plain fun. It'll be interesting to see how his personality develops further with a little brother or sister, and how the younger sibling develops differently than Sonny did as the result of having an older brother around.

No, really, he's very smart.

An afternoon at the train station with Grandma - beats Sesame Street any day.

Jump! It's no suprise that this is the same place Daddy broke his arm in 2008.

Pillow-fort destruction. It was a short-lived fort.

Backyard oasis.

The youngest patriot at our local Memorial Day gathering.

The lighter side of Memorial Day, "USA!, USA!, USA!"

It really is very exciting.

In closing, a special thanks to Mom for nine months of dedication... and a special thanks to Sonny for being such a great first child. We couldn't have asked, or even hoped, for more.
