Crazy Calendar

This month could not get any busier. I'm glad that we've decided tomorrow to not go to a play we had tickets for. I'm glad because this will be the last weekend day that we will not have any plans.
We've read "Snowy Days" and "The Christmas Story" for our 20 days of Christmas. We'll open another book tonight, I'm glad my daughter is loving it.

Christmas time!

I LOVE LOVE LOVE Christmas. Acually, there isn't enough loves out there for it. And each year as my daughter gets older it is getting even better. Which of course we've spent way more on her than we planned, but hey- thats ok!
I was planning on doing a book a day to read to her but I didn't get enough books in time, so I'm starting that tomorrow night because I'll have enough to get us to Christmas Eve.
So on the 1st, we went and looked at lights in a near by town. They even had Santa and we got Madison to sit with him and get her picture taken. She was more excited about the fact that he had candy so she got her little candy cane and ate on it for a bit. She was very excited about the lights, and pointed out everything she can name.
On the 2nd we put the tree up, the 3rd we put the decorations on the tree and last night she helped me wrap gifts. Her own gifts at that! Too bad this will be the last year for that :)
I'm not sure what we'll do tonight, I still have a few gifts to wrap so we might finish those up tonight.
