Oh, Christmas Tree, Oh, geez...

Not being able to blog at work is just a bit annoying...I am so very behind...as I type this, Molly is shrieking and laughing as she bounces up and down on Kip's bed. Who needs a bouncy when she can generate a bounce all on her own!?! She is just silly with glee.
Cole is still napping - a busy day going for a haircut with Kip!
As for the Christmas tree story, we had it up November 29th because I knew, just knew, school would start and I wouldn't get to put it up until the weekend...so, there we were, Cole helping me with the "decarayyytions" - periodically announcing "my did it, Mommy, my did it". Important to note here that unlike almost all other things, I do not have a "way" Christmas trees are supposed to be. I love the mix-matching of ornaments and could not, would not be able to handle a themed tree or a tree of one particular color...that being said, I was not prepared, however, for the clump of plastic cookie cutters that now hang on the bottom of our tree. But I can tell you, the placement of said "ornaments" involved the clapping of cute little two-year-old hands and the best smile as he proudly looked at what he accomplished. A new family tradition is born!
Now, two weeks later, he continues to rearrange those ornaments proudly and Molly is content to roll underneath the tree and swat at the branches she can reach. This is the good life!
