December 11, 2006

I'm getting so excited for this Christmas time! You are so excited about everything! On Saturday we went out to get our Christmas tree. Usually I'm responsible for picking it, because I'm very particular about my Christmas trees. I was eyeing one when you told me you wanted a different one. I tried to have you look at my tree, but you kept saying that you wanted this one. So we tried walking you around the whole lot, to see if you'd pick the same one. You did! You were adamant that this was the tree you wanted, so we got it. It is a very nice tree. Nice and fat like Mama likes. You did a great job of picking. You also helped decorate this year, although you like to take the ornaments on and off all the time.

The other day Daddy took you to the mall and you saw Santa (from a distance). You still don't want to sit on his lap, so last night we wrote him a letter to tell him what you'd like. All you said you wanted was a barking doggy like the one you saw at Target. I asked if there was anything else and you said to write "I love you, Santa." So we mailed it off, and I know this is a little premature, but I'm quite positive Santa will get the message.
