Abbey- Then and Now
Today we had to put our cat Abbey down. I had her for 10 years and she was a sweet cat. Declan loved Abbey too and will miss her I'm sure. I wonder sometimes if he will remember her when he gets older. I can remember (vaguely) my first pet and I was younger than Declan! I'm glad I have pictures of the two of them together...like the ones below. It shows (first) curiosity, love and a friendship that I hope he will remember forever. Rest in peace Abbey. We will miss you.

Mr. Independant
What a big boy Declan has become! He is VERY independant...or at least he's trying to be. He wants to make his own food, pour his own drinks, walk without holding our hands, push the cart at the grocery store and buckle his own seatbelt in his car seat. We hear "Declan do it!" at least 20 times a day! Here he is at the 4th of July parade in Grantsville, UT. This was his very first parade and he seemed to like it! He got lots of candy...I think that was his favorite part! We made sure to brush his teeth really good that night!
What a difference a year makes!
Kate and Declan on the 4th of July, 2008...

Seattle!
We're in Seattle for the Inagural Rock N Roll marathon! Taking in the sights before the big day!
Chillin' at the hotel
After a morning of traveling, we relaxed at our very nice, very luxurious hotel! The bed was oh so soft and the mini bar was oh so expensive! We found this out when Declan decided to open up a tiny can of $6 Pringles!!! Ouch!!! 
Making friends with Lily
Lily was the hotel's lobby dog. She greeted guests as they came thru the door. She really took a liking (or should I say "licking") to Declan! They became instant BFF's! :)
Fun at The Seattle Center
Declan LOVED this roller coaster...it was a pretty wild ride for a kiddie coaster!
Declan and his great grandmother!
Grandma and grandpa Larsen live in Kent, WA just outside of Seattle. Declan had fun visiting his great grandparents!

LAGOON TIME!
We had a great time this weekend at Lagoon (the local amusement park). It was Declan's first time at Lagoon and he couldn't get enough. We spent all day there with just a couple hour break for a nap. At Lagoon they have an old time photoshop and we all got our picture taken. What two handomse men I have!!!
The bumper car incident
It was a lovely summer afternoon and Declan took his new bumper car out for a spin around the block....
Declan was obeying all the traffic laws but then out of nowhere...
He was "bumped" by another car!! Imagine that!! Declan was so upset because he knew his insurance premium would go up!
THE ENDFlying Aces!
Declan loved the flying aces! They got going pretty fast and high, but Declan just laughed and laughed. He had a great time!

Eyes to the sky
We took Declan to his first air show last weekend. He loved looking at all the planes and jets. He wanted to ride in all of them! The cutest thing he did though was call the seagulls "thunderbirds". He enjoyed watching the real Thunderbirds though, and didn't seem to mind the noise too much!
Summertime fun with daddy
We all went to Raging Waters a few weeks ago and Declan had a blast. Especially playing with daddy in the water!
