Happy Birthday Boy

Porter turned one year old yesterday. There have been many days along the way that I thought we might not make it to yesterday, but now I have concluded beyond a shadow of a doubt that Porter is made out of some sort of new-age polymer and has a digestive system like a wood chipper. Here he is, healthy and happy, in front of the Christmas tree. He weighed 93 pounds yesterday.


This is what Porter looked like one year and one day ago. He weighed about 4 pounds.
