Getting Into The Holiday Spirit...

We have been busy getting the house ready for the holidays and especially for Daniel's first "official" Christmas. I know what about last year?? But come on --- he was only seven months old and he was all tubed up and we really had no room for our tree. Not like we have room this year with all his toys but it is totally different this year.


Daniel seems to be getting into the spirit as he now recognizes "Ho Ho" and calls Rudolph "Doe".



Getting into the Holiday Spirit

We have had some episodes of him pulling ornaments off the tree and knocking over his Christmas tree but all and all this year we have a ton to celebrate.


Our tree. Yes, it is that tall and that fat.
It's a fake too.



But Daniel doesn't seem to care.



Daniel also has a little tree in his room, thanks to Aunt Anne, Uncle Tom, Kyala and Jon. Last year this is what we use to celebrate Christmas with.....



Mike went a bit crazy decorating outside and much to my disdain he "borrowed" an inflatable from a co-worker. For those of you who know me you know how much I HATE these things. Can you see why???




And it did not stop there.... Of course we needed Santa's reindeers...



And some BALLS for the tree..






And some lights set to music (and why wouldn't you...)....

But all and all when the reaction is this precious why wouldn't you do all this....

Hope you are getting into the holiday spirit as well.

Happy Holidays!!
