Getting Ready for Christmas

With Henry being a little older we had a lot more fun preparing for Christmas with him.

He loved helping put the finishing touches on the tree. 

When helping Dad get the mail one evening he discovered a toy magazine and has put in considerable time looking over all sorts of different toys. 

He got to enjoy a whole week of pajamas with his daycare friends!

We got in lots of Christmas book reading!

Plenty of - O' Christmas Tree - singing!

Celie even had her one favorite ornament that I really didn't mind her jingling : ) 

Of course, I made them suffer through one sibling Christmas tree photo shoot...

It wasn't quite as terrible as it looks!

They both did their best to follow our instructions.

In the end they did their own little thing and it turned out cuter than we could have planned!

 Although the above photo would have been perfect for our Christmas card I already had my fav photos of the year printed!

 Can't wait to see what kind of fun the next few weeks of Christmas will bring us!
