Those are My Beads

A little girl at church shared her beads with Liam and since then he likes to put them on. He got some lovely purple beads at the dentist and pairs them with some of mommy's beads.




He likes to put them on but then at some point he wants them off. He can't take them off by himself very easily so he tends to get frustrated.

Picking out a Tree

We debated about real or artificial tree this year. In the end real won. Since we have vaulted ceilings we went for a tall one. It is probably around 11 or 12 feet.It took 12 strands of lights to get all the branches covered. The decor this year is vintage red, sliver, and green. Liam has done very well at staying away from the tree (or at least not breaking anything he has touched). So, our house has felt like Christmas since the day after Thanksgiving.
