Decorating for Christmas

We haven't been all that good about posting this month. It has been a bit crazy, with lots of drama related to closing on the new house. We haven't closed yet, but the house is done. I don't really want to write about that right now though!!

Instead, here are some cute pictures of Cameron decorating Nana and Poppa's Christmas tree. He LOVED it and really did a good job. He hung all of the ornaments on the bottom branches, and he knew what he hung where. When Nana tried to move some of them the next morning, he quickly noticed and demanded they be moved back to his original placement. One of Cam's favorite games since the tree has been up is playing hide-and-seek on the tree. Someone asks him, "Can you find a shell?" and he points one out. Cam's favorite ornaments to look for are the nutcrackers.

Cam ready to put the first few ornaments on the tree.
Cameron is obsessed with cuckoo clocks, so he was excited to find this ornament (despite the complete lack of excitement on his face!)
Mama, Nana, Poppa and Cam all put ornaments on the tree
Adding more ornaments
Nana and Cam look at an ornament with Cameron's hand print on it. He made it when he was a tiny baby (one month old) and we can't believe how big he has gotten in two years!
Cameron examining his handiwork.
The fragile ornaments that I can't touch are waaaaaaaay up high!

And completely unrelated to Christmas at all, here are a couple more cute pictures of Cameron in a box. We got a four foot long down rod for the fan in our family room, and the box it came in was abnormally large. Cameron had a good day at school (no biting!), so his special surprise when he got home was to play in this large box. He loved it and made everyone climb into the box with him at one point or another. It was very cute!
