It's Beginning to Look a Lot Like Christmas

I finally was able to decorate the house for Christmas. Ok, just the inside -- I just can't do the outside this year. But I did buy a little tree (just a 4 1/2 ft pre-lit baby tree) which will be perfect for Katelyn next year to use as her own personal tree. When they go on sale I will buy a big one. I love real trees, but they make such as mess and I am so paranoid about starting a fire that I can't enjoy it as much as I would like. I set up my houses, decorated the mantle and put out the kitchen and guest bath decorations as well. I even bought myself a new Christmas CD (Josh Groban).

Katelyn is hilarous with the tree. I put it up while she was sleeping, so all day she has been obsessed with it. If only she would not touch it. It is funny, though, because she sits down really close to the houses and the tree and says, "just looking, mommy!" all the while her little hands are touching the Pooh, Percy or Thomas on the tree, the Church Steeple or various other ornaments or decorations. Once I even overheard her say, "just looking, fingers." How cute is that?

All I have left is to get a new wreath to hang above the fireplace. The picture that hangs there is just not doing it. I did find a 40% off coupon to use at Jo Ann's, but I have to get over there by Wednesday... we will say if I can manage that.

I am almost finished with my Christmas shopping. I know what I want to get for the rest of the people on my list, but I have to find the time to get out to get (or get online to order) them.

I meant to post earlier in the week... I even tried for a few days, but I was unsuccessful at logging onto Blogger. It was strange. Hopefully tomorrow I can log on and get a few pics of my decor and my cute baby girl.

Have a Great Monday!!!!
