This was our first year since having Lyla that we bought our own Christmas tree. Her first Christmas, we were in the middle of a move, so we didn't get one, then her second, she was crawling, and I wasn't brave enough to risk it. But this year, she is old enough to actually get excited about it, so I'm glad we got one. We always get a real tree. Yes. . . . it costs money, but I love the smell of a real tree, and the joy of picking them out.
Lyla had so much fun looking at trees. She totally freaked out when she saw these tiny ones not much taller then her. 'Bebe twee!!' She just wanted to give them hugs.
By the time we got home, it was time for her nap. While she slept, we put up the tree. When she woke up, she was so mesmerized by it. She just wanted to look at everything that was on the tree, pointing it out and getting so excited. She loves having the lights on, and asks that they be on all the time. I love that she's excited for Christmas this year!
