Christmas is getting closer and closer and I couldn’t be more excited!  We are having everybody to our house this year and I think it is going to be a good time.  Evie is very excited about all things Christmas.  We have been listening to a lot of Christmas music lately (even the Christmas station in the car) and she has many many favorites which she attempts to sing.  This usually consists of saying one term with a lot of pauses like, “Pist   Mas   Tree.  Pist   Mas   Tree.”  I guess the pauses make it musical.

She has several favorite songs, such as “Oh Oh Pistmas Tree”, “Wish you Pistmas Tree” (that’s We Wish you a Merry Christmas, but she can’t bear to say Christmas without following it with tree), “Deck the Holly”, “Sosty the Snowman”, “Reindeer Song” (usually accompanied by “Nose!”), and “Jingle Bells”.

So I think it goes without saying that she is going to be pretty excited come Christmas morning.  And all this BEFORE she sees what Santa is going to bring her!  She’s one lucky girl.  Having a kid makes you look forward to Christmas in a way you haven’t in years.
