Twelve months of Dustin

We've made it an entire year!  Dustin has turned one year old!  (And yes, this post has taken me an extra month to get out the door!)  From his first week of life, we took a picture of baby Dustin alongside a large(ish) white teddy bear, with a black sheet as a background.  Below you can see some snapshots of Dustin from each month of the year. Click on the photos to enlarge.
