Look what I found . . .

Tucker made a new discovery last week . . . his feet!!!

Decorating Tucker's Very Own Christmas Tree!!

Tucker was already accumulating several ornaments, so we decided that he needed his very own Christmas Tree for his room. It was fun putting together his tree. I tried to let him help with the decoratings, but he wasn't so sure about it at first.




What is all this in my room? The lights are pretty, but what this this round thing say? Oh . . . my first Christmas ornament!!!


He is so proud of his tree!!!

Getting Ready for Christmas

From picking out and decorating our Christmas Tree to having breakfast with Santa, this Christmas Season has been extra special. Each holiday tradition seems brand new this year as we experience them with Tucker. He has been such a joy and it is fun to think of Christmas from his perspective. We began Tucker's holiday traditions by attending the Guyton Christmas Parade and watching Santa arrive in town on the fire engine. He was so good during the parade and did not even flinch when all the trucks were blaring their sirens. I know that it is hard to say that a 3 1/2 month old enjoyed the parade, but he did seem to like watching all the floats, cars and fire trucks going by.

Our next tradition was picking out the Christmas Tree. Of course Tucker and Daddy checked 'em all out until they found our tree. What do ya think Daddy . . . I think this one is perfect!!

Tucker's first Christmas Tree!!

After the tree was selected (and sat in the den with no lights or decorations for almost 2 weeks!!) we finally decided to decorate. Tucker chilled out in his swing while Mommy and Daddy did most of the decorating. He did help Daddy with a few ornaments, but I think he mainly enjoyed watching the lights, especially the blinking ones.

At breakfast with Santa, Tucker was not so interested in Santa, but he sure was fascinated with Sadie Grace, he's already checking out the girls!!

Our Holiday Season has just begun and we are looking forward to experiencing each moment of Tucker's first Christmas.
