Way back on August 13, 2015 — we know, we know, we have a lot of catching up to do, as we mentioned before — Dermot turned 1. He had a Dr. Seuss-themed birthday, complete with lots of great decorations, a scrumptious cake (thanks, Auntie!), Lorax and green eggs and ham treats, and lots and lots of presents from his generous friends and family!
Oh, and Dermot quite enjoyed his smash cake, as the below video will attest!
It’s been over a year since we’ve last posted, so for those of you who check the blog for your Dermot updates… we’re sorry!
We have quite a lot of catching up to do. Dermot has started walking, talking, and otherwise acting like the toddler that he is instead of the baby that he was. We have photos and videos of most of it (if not all of it), and we’ll plan to share them here, we swear!
We’ve also been lucky enough to welcome two new members into our family, and while Dermot’s younger brother Emmet is no longer with us, Dermot and Emmet’s younger brother Finn is almost a month old, and is fighting every day to be able to eventually come home with Mom, Dad and Dermot. (Please see the Emmet and Finn blog if you’d like periodic updates about Finn’s progress.)
So… we have plenty of updating to do. And we will try to chip away at the backlog with posts over the coming weeks. In the meantime, please enjoy a few pictures from Dermot’s Sesame Street-themed birthday party, as our big guy turned 2 on Saturday, August 13!
Plenty more pictures and updates to come, but just wanted to share with everyone that Dermot had a great 1st birthday! His cousin Colin slept over, but not before helping Dermot play his new game during a birthday dinner out at Bertucci’s.
