Tis the Season!

We got the tree put up today! Leah had fun helping decorate and Trindon thinks the shiny ornaments are pretty fun. He keeps trying to get them in his mouth and Leah keeps saying she wants a candy cane. Putting the tree up made me think of when we put the tree up last year, we lived in Florida and I was pregnant with Trindon. We knew we would be moving soon, but we had no idea where.  Amazing how much can change in a year. It's so nice put a tree up in my own house again, I haven't done that since we left Louisiana.

After we got the tree put up I let the kids open a gift. I've decided to start a new tradition of letting them open new Christmas jammies the night we put up the tree. I know a lot of people do this on Christmas Eve, but if the jammies are Christmas themed I like the idea of being able to wear them all season long.  This was Trindon's first ever present to open. Of course he just chewed on it. In case your wondering why he's only wearing one sock - it's because he threw up on the other one.

Of course I had to get a picture of both kids in their new jammies in front of the tree (at least I tried). Phil told me I was trying to do the impossible.

Just a little blog FYI - You can click any picture in the blog to see it larger and it will bring up all the pictures in that post. Trindon has the cutest little smile in the top right photo here (just in case you need a better view of that cutie pie). Just hit Esc to go back.
