Tis the Season









We are totally in the Christmas season at our house! As of midnight on Thanksgiving, I am allowed to start the Christmas decorating and playing the music and getting all our shopping done. In fact, with 2 family birthdays throughout December, parties, Mikayl's functions and all the craziness of the season, I don't think I'm crazy for getting all of my shopping and wrapping done by Thanksgiving weekend! I like to enjoy December rather than stress through it. So, you'll see all of our presents unde the tree already.







We had a great time decorating our new home. When Mikayl was over we decorated our family tree in the back living room and she decorated her own littel "Charlie Brown tree in her room (its ours from last year in our tiny condo!). My mom came over to spend the night and we decorated our "fancy" tree for the nighborhood to see out the front window. I love lighting all the candles, drinking egg nog, and listening to Christmas songs all month.






One of my favorite things is watching my friends kids. I love it! I've been able to pick up my littel friend Amaiya and watch her after preschool a few days this week. Amaiya LOVES to play with our dog Oreo & Mikayl's Littlest Pet Shops for hours! She is such an easy kid to watch. We have have lots of fun together.
