Getting Ready for Christmas

We are getting ready for Christmas and Wright is learning all about this favorite kids' holiday. We have been teaching him the story of the baby Jesus which sort of confuses him because he keeps thinking it is someone's birthday party. But he loves playing with his Little People nativity and calling it Old McDonald's. We put up our tree and decorated our house right after Thankgsiving and it took almost 2 full days! If we did not have visitors coming to our house for Christmas, I would have given up after a few hours I am sure! He has also learned how to sing Jingle Bells (Jingy Bells) and shake his bells that Mimi bought him. Today we went over to Aunt Sarah's house and decorated gingerbread houses with the cousins. Wright of course ate 90% of the candy while I decorated. But it was very fun!

Wright got to help hang candy canes on the tree.
