Tree Trimming 2009

We purchased our first Christmas tree as a family on Thanksgiving Weekend. We let it sit in water for a few days and let the branches fall down, as they typically do, before decorating it. Well...this past Saturday we spent most of the morning getting our decorations out of their boxes and wrappers, we strung the lights on the tree and put on all of our beautiful decorations we've collected through the years. It was such a beautiful tree, wasnt it!?

and then it fell....

What a disaster! We waited until the next day to try our hand at it again with the help of Mom and Dad Finger. They came to save the day with extra hands and a hand saw.

Tree Trimming Take 2:

Bye Bye Bumpers...

So we covered the outlets, removed breakables from within reach, and protected covers, but with Ethan becoming more and more mobile these days, steps clearly needs to be taken in his crib.

Ethan's Crawling!

Oh boy, are we in trouble now! Ethan has been crawling since mid October. We have so much baby-proofing to do - and boy does he test his limits... Check out what he does here!

Pop Goes the Weasel!

I guess we know what Ethan's favorite song is now!
