It's Beginning a Little Early This Year....

Mom is a little paranoid about the entire month of December and Baby Brother's arrival.  Once again, she used her giant belly to get her way with poor Daddy.  So, it was up to the attic for him last night.  He hauled down all the Christmas decorations and let me help him outside with the lights.

Mom and I put a tree up in my room just for me!

And... Mom says she finally found the perfect Advent Calendar.  This doesn't look ANYTHING like a calendar to me - and I should know -  I work on calendar stuff everyday at pre-school!!  The rumor is that once it's December, treats will go in these little buckets, so I am not about to start arguing semantics in any way.

Dad's job list also included Christmas Tree Wrangling.  He threw this guy together in no time, and Mom and I spent hours making it pretty.  Dad also had to put up the Santa Pottery Scene that Grandma made because of Mom and her silly belly again.  I'll have to get me one of those.  It's amazing what she gets away with!!

Hope your homes are looking and feeling as festive and cozy as ours is!  What a great time of year.
