Decorating for Christmas!

Last year, I let Rhyan pick out her own tree at Kohls. Even before she could say that "my favorite color is pink!", she picked a pink tree. Heck, i dont even think that at 20 months old she know her colors yet. But my little girl does love her pink :-) And she loves her tree!

We decorated her tree Thanksgiving evening. We started this last year so we've pretty much bought boxed ornaments so far, but i hope that through time we will make things together and let her tree really represent her interests. It'll take time, just as its taken years for my tree to be a very sentimental thing for me :-)

We also scored this great little people nativity set on sale and its my favorite thing for Rhyan to have! Its a great way to talk about what Christmas is all about... and it doesnt hurt that she totally has a soft spot for babies. In this pic she was cradling baby Jesus and saying (in a VERY dramatic, sympathetic voice) "Ohhhhhhh Baaaaaby!"
Poor Spud. He's just happy to be in the same room as other people!
And according to Rhyan, baby Jesus belongs on top of the manger, not the angel. Duh.
And the way she has it set up, it looks like one of the wise men and Mary might have a little somethin somethin going on! Blasphemous!

I love Rhyan's age. I love that she understands things better and that she is as excited as her Momma is about the Christmas season :-)
