TIS THE SEASON

Getting ready for Christmas this year has been so much fun!  Gavin is so into all the lights on the houses and loves the Christmas tree.  I don't think he has any idea about the concept of presents, but he loves the tree.  He really wanted to help put the ornaments on the tree and now he likes to rearrange them often (especially Buzz and Woody).

We finished decorating one night after he went to bed and when he got up then next morning, we had all of the lights on and he was amazed.  He kept saying, "Oh my josh, look at the lights!"  It was like he had no idea where they all came from.  It was pretty cute.

Nate got this remote that controls 3 outlets in the house.  He linked one to the tree, one to the lights on the mantle, and the other one to the entry table lights.  Every time we get home, Gavin comes in and counts, "one, two, three, on!" and the lights go on, one at a time.  I thinks he believes the lights are magical and can hear him.  Oh, the simple things. . .
