Trees:

Okay i know you all think im crazy for having my tree up back in early OCT, but you all dont have haston asking you everyday for the millionth time "where is the xmas tree mommy??" So, i caved. But, i did great alittle creative. Instead of looking at a xmas tree for 3 monthes i made it a holiday tree. We put halloween decorations on it. It was awesome.! It had skeletons, bugs, spiders, webs, pumpkins, ghosts, orange lites, everything a 3year old boy could ask for. every morning he would wake up and come and sit in front of it and ask me to make it shinny.(lites)
So, know that Halloween is over, i considered doing something thanksgiving-ish with it but changed my mind. Way to much effort and he is very happy looking at a xmas tree for 2 monthes. He was a super helper putting on the new decorations. Once i got the lites on he was incharge of putting the balls were he wanted them to go. Was a very big job let me tell you. He would take a ball, stnad back from tree, put his hand on his chin, hmmm and haaaaa for a minute, then pick his place. All of the balls were placed on space of 3 limbs before i was able to talk him into let me help out alittle. then he would point, and say"put it there mommy, yes, right there." Oh boy, i think i might be introuble with my own personal decorator. :) when all was said and done, and we put the star on it, he says to me, "mommy, it's done and its beautiful. love you!"
now we just need some presents under it so it doesnt look so sad all by it self........ hint hint all you out there.......:) i'm a very lucky girl to have such a cute funny kid. i have more blessings than i deserve im sure but i will take all i can get!
