What a treat! And it looks like the Seussian Thing outfit will fit Nico for a few more months, too. Win-win.
Words don't begin to express how completely heartwarming it is to know Nico wore that particular outfit on his first Christmas. It's as if I was present and celebrating with all of you, wrapping Nico in our love for him and delighting in his discovery of the day and the presents from Santa and his great, big Minneapolis family. I'm caught by surprise -- both that he ended up in that outfit for any part of the day and even more by how thrilled I am to know that he did. You were a sweetie to send me the heads up on Christmas Day, and I'm glad to finally see the pics here.
Yes, I did! Two videos, even. But the one photo came with a message telling me to check out LJ for the photo, so I kept looking for more. And here they are!
More pictures = good. More pictures of buttonfish = great!
How sweet of Nico! No rush -- prezzies are fun anytime.
I still haven't wrapped or mailed a single Christmas gift myself. (Oops.) Fortunately, the few I ordered online were shipped to their intended recipients in quick order, so I've at least mostly covered things on the business front. (One New Year's prezzie to go on that front.)
