the countdown is on

The tree is up and the pumpkins are out. Thankfully (ha ha, no pun intended), we got the house ready for Christmas even if I have not bought the first gift yet. The boys were too cute putting up the tree. Blake loves it. Brantley tolerates it. Jeffrey tried to control it. Andrew was into it. He kept saying, MAMA MAMA MAMA UP TOP UP TOP UP TOP. He wanted every ornament up high (translation - he wanted to climb the ladder). They all loved seeing ornaments that they had made, were bought for them, or generally represented them or something they had done. No one got hurt. The tree did not get knocked over and we did not have to put a dog-gate-fence thing around it (like we did when the twins and Andrew were smaller) so we are labeling the event a success.

I can't believe that we are 25 sleeps away from Baby Jesus' Birthday!
