Introducing...Oliver Neil!

In early October, my brother Nate and his wife Brittany had their first child--a small dark and handsome little guy named Oliver Neil (Neil after my late Grandpa Spoelman who passed away days after attending Nate and Britt's wedding back in 2007).  They live in California, so I couldn't wait until they came home for Thanksgiving to meet him!  Skyping was great, but just not the same as holding a tiny infant and smelling that newborn smell.  He's such a sweet baby and the kids LOVED holding him and looking at him.  I'm guessing he'll be doing a little bit (not much) more when we see them again at Christmas :)

So...do you like how I've been updating my blog backgrounds to match the seasons/holidays...but not actually updating my blog?  I thought so :)  I've decided to just give up on trying to catch up.  Maybe I'll predate some updates later on (for when I want to make a blog book), but for now it's too overwhelming!
