Dec 7th - Finishing Up Christmas Tree Day

you would be surprised about how hard it is to hang little snowflakes and icicles on a christmas tree.



the little hooks are so little and then they fall through the branches.

but it looks very nice afterwards.

and then you add the gingerbread man and snow sled ornaments . . .

and turn off the room lights and on the christmas tree lights . . .

and get that very christmas-y feeling.

merry christmas from next to our tree.

Dec 6th - Christmas Tree Day - Disaster Strikes

we needed to go to target to buy new christmas tree lights.  i took gingerbread man with me.  i lost him.

mommy and i went back to target to look for gingerbread man, but we couldn't find him.  he is lost.  i told daddy.  daddy went back to target to look for gingerbread man, he couldn't find him either.  gingerbread man is gone, forever.  i miss gingerbread man.

e

epilogue - while searching for gingerbread man, we found a new gingerbread man.  while we still miss old gingerbread man, we do love new gingerbread man and are starting to feel happy again.

gingerbread man is not allowed to go into stores.  he has to stay in my car with my yellow blanket so he doesn't get lost.  he has blue icing and blue buttons.

Dec 1st - Night Life

mommy: erynn what are you doing, its time for bed?

erynn:  just reading my christmas music box and listening to christmas carols.

i love to listen to christmas music.  i feel very nice.  i've been listening to christmas lullabies since Halloween.  it's deck the halls.  i have Christmas fever.  don't tell daddy.  i would be in lots of trouble.  do you like my christmas snowflake blanket?  i am warm and toasty.  ok.  i will go to sleep now.
