Tis' the Season

Oh my, I do love Christmas! More specifically, I love decorating for Christmas. I decided to set up our holiday decorations the weekend before Thanksgiving so that we could get some other things done over Nick's time off. I had to do some creative rearranging of my normal displays considering Charlie can reach just about everything these days.

It was fun introducing Charlie to the tree for the first time. He immediately called the ornaments balls and wanted to touch all of them. I told him that none of us could touch the ornaments with our hands, but that we could look at them with our eyes. Before I knew it, Charlie was getting his face as close to the ornaments as possible to get a better look with his eyes....too funny! For the most part, it has been pretty easy to keep him away from the tree because it is set up in the living room at the front of the house (out of sight, out of mind). We'll see if that continues to be the case as the month goes on.
