The Holiday Season is upon us....

And we're having so much fun with it. As you can see from the photos here, Emma likes her warm clothes as much as mommy does. She also loves singing Christmas carols. She'll stare and grin when I sing to her, and then starts singing "oooh, oooh" right along with me.

We went to get the tree this weekend, and ended up with a beautiful, tall and skinny, 8 ft. Noble Fir. The decorating is pretty simple. We have big bulb lights that are kind of fun, and different than the "usual." Most of our ornaments are blown glass. I just think they look beautiful, and we have tons of different "themes" to them. This year we added new garland and a tree topper. I think it's gorgeous, and will be just right for adding all the cute ornaments E will someday make for us in school. Right now, she does little more than stare at the tree, but it's good to know we can entertain her so easily.

No one tells you this, but the Holidays are just so much more fun when you have a teeny person in your life. I know E isn't going to remember anything from this Christmas, but the house is decorated, and we're going a little nuts with presents, and we'll bake cookies for Santa. I've never been so joyful, so this is just the right season to be enjoying E's babyhood.
