It's begining to look ALOT like Christmas...♫ ♪!

Oh, how I LoVe this time of year! Cold weather, extra time with family, holiday shopping, Christmas decorations, time off and most of all celebrating our Lord and Savior's birth! I am a Christmas kind of girl! This last Sunday we, and I do mean WE, not just ME...like usual...put up our Christmas decorations. Todd was so helpful and sweet to assist me this year!

It really looks like Christmas around here now. Tree up, mantle decorated, stockings hung, banister draped in garland...now all we need are presents under the tree. Next, task to tackle---no doubt!

This year, much more than last year...Maggie was really excited about all the decorations...especially the tree. She was almost mesmerized! She talked about it, touched it and explored every ornament in her reach. Because of this excitement, I decided it was time for her to have her own tree, too. A tree that was her size, and one that she could touch and mess with all she wanted.

I had seen some PINK trees in some sale fliers, and decided she had to have a pink one. She loves it and could not wait to show Todd when he came home from work last night! It is just soooooo fun to have a girl and a girl who gets excited like her momma!

Also, last night we---well more Todd---well all Todd....put up our Christmas lights. He did a great job, and Maggie was thrilled to seem them after her nap.

Below are some pics of all of our Christmas fun, so far!

Love to all,
Leah

P.S Stay tuned...I plan to take the "Intelligender" at home urine gender test this week...to get an idea if we are having a girl or a boy. It is not 100% accurate, but about 70-85%. Just for fun, don't worry we will not be painting the nursery just yet. You can go here to check it out...pretty cool, huh! :)

That's great! AC would love to have her own tree! EK would destroy it though. :) Christmas is much more fun through the eyes of a toddler, isn't it??

You and Maggie are a fun, girlie pair! I love her tree and your Christmas decorations. I've never heard of the intelligender, but I'm excited to know about it and find out your results! :)
