Mostly drooling, eating, smiling and filling my diapers. It was a good year.

We were into our first year of a mortgage, at a respectable 10%. :up:
Changing diapers and cleaning gloop of off a little face. :admin:
Working on producing #2. :biggrin:

All the toys were gone, as well as the old girl friends. :135:

Damn, life has sure changed.

In grade 7 in Calgary going ape $hit when it was announced that we were getting the '88 Winter Olympics. Whole school was packed into the library for the live announcement and absolute pandemonium ensued. Great moment!
