New Generation
Calum is really a boy of his generation. He knows his birthday is coming up and do you know what he asked for? An iPod. And not just any iPod, but a video iPod. Just like Dad's. Only new. And for him, not for dad. It should come loaded with Ben10, Spidey, Kim Possible and other cartoons and with really big headphones.
He's also picked out his cake. It's going to be Ben 10, with the grandpa, Ben and one of the aliens on it.
His birthday is not till March. He will be three. Yes, that's THREE. What's he going to ask for when he's four?
Note for the grandparents - don't fear. No, of course we aren't going to get him an iPod for his birthday. I think I'm going to have to sign him up for swimming lessons again. Anything to get him out and about.
Speaking of birthdays - we missed wishing a happy birthday to Nicola, Clint and Tabitha. Hope you all had good birthdays.
Back to work now.....I'm hoping the snow doesn't come this weekend.
Oh - one last thing - our nephew Coy is walking. Go Coy! Now Grant and Jen can experience the true nature of the toddler, and if he's anything like Calum he won't sit still for a minute.

Calum's Firsts!
Just going through his baby book and am remembering his firsts:
First came home - March 14, 2005
First smile - April 2005
First trip - Kamloops and Merritt, April 2005
First belly laugh, May 2005
First sat up - October 2005
Started daycare - October 2005
First stood and crawled - December 2005
Walking - April 2006
First words - uncle, eww, dad
Favorite saying - September 2006 - no, no, no
Funny how that favorite saying hasn't changed much.
Dakota is coming home from Kamloops today. She's been up for a visit. Dez is out, Calum and Don are watching hockey and I'm enjoying the last couple of days off. I go back to work on Monday, up to Merritt on Monday night till Tuesday night, then back for a meeting on Monday. Calum starts back at the Old DC but our time there will soon be up (March). Yikes, time to really start looking into other options. We are really going to miss the Old DC!
Not much planned for the day, we are going to do some chores, maybe bake some cookies, recycle the Christmas tree....and read. I'm making my way through my Christmas books, finished 2.5, and want to get through the third before we go back.
