Devin was born on 12/12/10 at 11:11am in Dayton, Ohio on a cold winter day. We wished for him for so long and now he is finally here. We wanted his story here in order to keep in touch with all of his family around the country.
We have been staying with Nana for the last 3 nights so she can care for Devin while we attend the Pacific Veterinary Conference in San Francisco. It also happened to be her birthday. Devin got so excited after the singing of "Happy Birthday" that he squealed and clapped his hands. So sweet.
Devin carries this little stuffed tree around everywhere. This morning he brought it to the coffee shop, napped with it, then had lunch with it. Tree hugger, I guess.
We spent the weekend at the Russian River (where there was no Internet service and hence no blog posts). We had a great time! Devin loved playing on the river's edge and running around the huge deck, grassy yard, and rental house.
Here is Devin bringing Winnie the Pooh down the hallway to take his bath. I was able to convince Devin that Pooh does not enjoy baths as much as he does and so Pooh avoided the bathtub tonight.
Devin and I were sitting I the living room while a few friends wandered by outside the window. He scared them into the little forest with his squealing.
