decorations

This is just the main stuff. I haven't had a chance to take pictures of the knick knacks on the TV, the Christmas bears in all corners and the Nativity scene on the bookcase (it didn't last under the tree). Addison has an attachment to baby Jesus and likes to give him kisses because I told her that she can't touch him. This morning I had to ask her to put him back with his mommy and daddy because he was sleeping. The things a mom will say to get their child to listen.

I can't believe I am posting this first picture, but I'm in good spirits at the moment. I'm really a hot mess, bu this is me at 8:30 on a Sunday morning. Now that I think of it, this is me most other times that I'm not dressed for work.

Addison was such a good helper. I don't think she ever actually put an ornament on the tree, but she sure did like going through the motions. We made it through the day with only 3 broken ones.

I stole the wrapping your picture idea from a friend and I love how it turned out. I spent 10 minutes in Target trying to find the perfect paper. Who knew it was such a hard decision. Worth the 10 minutes though.

Stay tuned. More to come. I love this time of year.
