As one does, we reflected on 2008 over the past couple weeks, and we came to the realization that Team McNeil had a very big year. Obviously we had Callum, but in addition to that, we both turned 30, we celebrated our fifth wedding anniversary, we both changed jobs, and we had our biggest and most complicated move ever (which is saying something). It was very challenging, but very wonderful, and we can’t wait for more!
As for Christmas, we had a great one. We didn’t leave the house all day, and in fact we didn’t get out of our PJ’s, either. We just hung out, opened gifts, created and ate yummy meals, and hung out some more. I think Callum had a great first Christmas, but he definitely didn’t really understand it. He loved all of his gifts, but he was consistently more excited about the paper than the gift. He can officially say that all of his gifts were deliciously wrapped.
So now that the little one has reached another mini-birthday (9 months now!), here are a few pictures.
By the way . . . I asked Nancy about my supplies the Tuesday after my last post. She had completely forgotten to order them and was SOOOOOO apologetic it’s silly. Then i found out that she used to support 1 VP and about 12 people, and now she supports 3 or 4 VPs and about 45 people, so yeah – she’s a little maxxed out. BUT I think you’ll find that I always said she was nice . . . just a little scary.
Anyway my supplies arrived on December 30th – officially less than a month after I started, and Nancy and I are buds, so it’s all good.
