O Christmas Tree, O Christmas Tree

Decorating the Christmas tree this year was quite an exciting event to Elle. Well, actually, the Christmas experience as a whole is quite thrilling to her. She loves every minute of celebrating this holiday. She cannot seem to get enough. The other day when we were at a store waiting in line to check out, Elle smiles, looks at me, and yells, “Mommy, it’s Jingle Bells!” She then proceeds to sing, at the top of her lungs, to the song playing in the store. It was cute and embarrassing at the same time. But it truly shows her enthusiasm for the Christmas season.

Elle's excitement for the Christmas season has also been shown through her endless decorating of our Christmas tree. She has decorated our Christmas tree nonstop. Everyday she takes the ornaments off and then re-hangs them—on the same branch of course. Why would she want to spread them out? Why decorate the whole tree when one tiny limb will do? Needless to say, our poor tree and ornaments are well loved.

So far, we've lucked out in the Christmas tree department.... seeing as how we're gone every holiday, we've never got around to buying our own. Last year was Q's first Christmas, and I'm a little reluctant to let him loose in my mom's house this year... which is FILLED with Christmas decorations galore, and might I add.... BREAKABLE ones! Oh well, it was bound to happen sooner or later. Hopefully he'll be good.
