Holidays with a toddler

Henry is really enjoying the holidays thus far. He liked getting his picture taken with Santa although I had to sit with Henry on my lap. He really liked Santa when Santa gave him this light- up plastic toy which I would NEVER buy for him. It stays in the car and only comes out if Henry is getting fussy. Henry is also enjoying the Christmas tree. He is really enjoying pulling the ornaments off and shaking the branches. David may come home one day to find the Christmas tree in the front yard. I've moved most ornaments up out of his reach but he always seems to find one I missed. He knows he isn't suppose to do it b/c he runs to the tree and rips them off every time I turn my head. Little booger!!! If things couldn't get more exciting, it is snowing today. There is already an inch and we should get another by the end of the night. Henry and I went out in it around 11am and I pulled him around in his sled until my hands were in pain. I am also proud to say that Henry loves holiday music. We pretty much listen to it all day and there are a few songs that get him dancing. We will keep the gifts low key in order not to get Henry too worked up but I am afraid all the other stuff like the music and holiday events is just something I love too much. This weekend I have a huge list of events which include Christmas trains, Santa, and a tree lighting at the Ellipse. FUN!!!!
