Kyle is SO excited for Christmas this year. I keep trying to get him to understand that Thanksgiving is first AND our trip to Disney but he sees it everywhere so it's hard for him to understand that Christmas season isn't quite here yet.
With warm weather here this weekend, we put up some lights. We really haven't done that since we've had the kids. Last year he REALLY wanted lights but we didn't. This year we wanted to put some up for him to enjoy. As we were hanging the lights, he was so excited I thought he was going to break something or knock Damon off the ladder. After they were up he said "This is the best Christmas ever!" and then said he thought Santa would really like the lights and that our house looks like Santa's house now.
He helped me buy a present for Gpa Tom yesterday so we even wrapped a few gifts today. That was an adventure with a 4 year old. He wants to put up the tree but he'll have to wait until after Thanksgiving for that.
I'll have to say I've always loved Christmas season but it is taking on a whole new enjoyment watching it through his eyes. It's pretty obvious that Allison doesn't remember Christmas from last year. When he says he wants something for Christmas she'll find something and say she wants it for her birthday. So, she gets the concept of presents but doesn't remember getting any except for her birthday I think. She'll remember next year, I'm sure.
