A fabulous day for our little Lizard:
She decorated her giant dinosaur tree this morning (placed pieces of her alphabet puzzle on her big dinosaur).
At daycare they had a Christmas party and opened presents, ate treats, and watched the grinch who stole Christmas.
When we came to pick her up she said she didn’t want to go shopping with us (“I’m really quite tired”), but we took her anyway and she was soooo excited about the shopping mall! With all the stores! And decorations! (Bonus for us: we kept her sufficiently distracted that she didn’t notice Santa Claus).
We went home and decorated the tree while we waited for pizza. She very enthusiastically decorated the bottom two feet of the tree, and she got to see the pizza deliverer.
And then pizza and dessert and stories and advent calendar.
Having a kid does make some parts of Christmas more hectic, but the enthusiasm and wonder is so delightful, and so infectious...
In other news, skipping rope is HARD.
