"O Christmas Tree..."

I typed everything before posting pictures! Whoops:) Scroll down!

Trying to get away! Now that he can move....HOLY COW my life is different. To be honest I HATE IT! Everything is harder and he's Quick! I'm mostly worried about him hurting himself...but I guess banging his head a few times is inevitable.
He can crawl like crazy...and is already pulling himself up on furniture. I bet he walks by 9 months.....AAAAGGHHHH!

Jeri (MOM) I love, love, love my nativity. THANK YOU SO MUCH! My sweet mother-in-law gave me this nativity a few years ago and putting it out is ony of my favorite things about christmas! It is so beautiful....and jaxson enjoyed helping play with the thousands of boxes it comes in! THANKS AGAIN:)


I Know...I Know...everyone thinks I'm crazy. That or I am making you feel major anxiety about how quickly Christmas is coming! Get crackin' people...I saw a sign on saturday that said only 44 shopping days until christmas! HA HA HA


So the story is: I have to work a lot over the next few weeks and I decided yesterday that I was going to put up my tree and get all decorated for christmas...Yikes! I have admitted on this blog COUNTLESS times my love for any holiday...so you probably saw this coming:) Also-We always travel to Utah for the most part of December and never get to enjoy our tree or our home decked up for the holidays. This year....I'm happy to say that won't be the case:) We'll be eating Turkey next to the Nativity and Tree:)

I could have done it the day after Thanksgiving....but tradition says I'll be lined up at Target with my friend Brittany about 5:00 a.m.: Hat, Scarf, Coat....and a mug of hot chocolate...just waiting to buy every Disney Movie they have for my little jaxson! Holidays rock with a kid!!!


I even gave jaxson these new little red striped penguin pajamas to wear throughout the season...he looked so cute. Enjoy the pics of my "EARLY CHRISTMAS"....

I hear ya Kristin! I'm getting so anxious to put up our Christmas decorations too! Luckily we decided that we wanted to stay home to be able to start our own little family traditions, so I'll be able to enjoy our tree and decor a little longer. We're flying to Utah on Christmas day after we spy on Santa and have our own little Christmas morning. Hopefully we'll see you there. Do you know when the little Christmas party is for our friends?

Holy moly! Merry Christmas:) I just felt very sad looking around my bare family room... Looks good at your house! Should we make bets on how long those presents will stay under the tree or wrapped??? GO JAXSON:)

Yeah for the holidays! Your house looks so fun! I love the feel of Christmas time. I LOVE your Willow Tree nativity. My mom really treasures hers. :) And don't worry, Bobby has been wearing Christmas PJ's for almost a month now (Red with monkey's holding candy canes). I figure if I gave it to him for Christmas, he couldn't enjoy it for the holidays! So we are enjoying them, too, and all through the season. :)

I'm so glad you put your christmas decorations up. I put mine up like a week ago and I felt kindof like an idiot because no one else had theirs up. I finally figured if the stores can put theirs up then so can I. I love christmas!

How fun! Your house looks SO cute! But I am with Chelsea....good luck keeping those presents wrapped! :) I am also glad that you will be lined up at Target in Nebraska because I will be here at Target! My in laws think this is the lamest tradition, but Joseph and me and my dad go every year! (Yes, Joseph and my dad!!) Even if we don't have anything that we are looking for, we have to go, it's tradition!
