O Christmas Tree, O Christmas Tree......

Our *new* Christmas tree....

Spiderman-- I mean J helping decorate our tree!

The last several years I have always tried to put the Christmas tree up the weekend after Thanksgiving while my hubby is hunting.... But, our tree was a bit shabby last year and so my hubby *refused* to put it up again this year.... Someone from his work offered us their old tree and my hubby accepted it... After all, it was bigger than ours.... Well, it's bigger alright! And it was not pre-lit.... But, we had enough lights already and it wasn't too bad to put them on.... So, yesterday I had a special helper to decorate it-- SPIDERMAN! I thought it was cute and couldn't resist snapping some pics!
We went *Santa* shopping this week for J and except for a few little things, we have him done... Whew! Operation Santa Clause was a success! We got the Criss Cross Crash I mentioned in a previous post as well as a few other requested items and a Penguin Pillow Pet! I think J will be pleased on Christmas morning.....

Although I can't go into details let me tell you.... J is processing A LOT of stuff right now! Some of the things he has been saying [mostly good!] we are like: "What the.... How does he know that???" We try not to say too much around him or where he could possibly hear but, he is a smart boy and I think he just *knows*.... I am hoping the things we are hearing/seeing will be helpful in another couple months when we need it!

For now, we will just count down to Christmas..... 20 days!

  2. That is way too cute! My brother lived as Superman for about 4 years. Glad Santa shopping was a success.
