It’s Beginning to Look a Lot Like Christmas

I put up our Christmas decorations yesterday.

While I know that it is still only November (for a few days), as G/S/N so kindly pointed out to me this morning, but December starts on Thursday and I’m out Thursday night and probably wouldn’t feel like doing it Friday evening so wouldn’t have gotten to it til Saturday evening at the earliest and I didn’t want to miss out having Christmas decorations for the entire month of December, so I rounded up.

Kate, of course, is behaving true to form…..she saw the tree, went,”Woooow” and promptly walked up to it and started pulling ornaments off and handing them to Uncle Robbie, myself, etc. to show us. I think G/S/N will have a time of it this month – I should get her a little basket so she can collect them throughout the day and I can re-hang them every night. That should be fun fun fun! If I give her the basket tomorrow morning it should get old by, oh, say 10am?

I will, of course, be playing Christmas music in the house beginning Thursday.

All the kids’ Christmas gifts arrived last Thursday too (I ordered everything off the internet this year). So the next thing is to wrap them and put them under the tree so I can make G/S/N’s life even more exciting as she tackles Kate all day long to prevent her from ripping open all the gifts!
