A Butterfly Christmas

I've finally uploaded pictures of our living room all decked out for Christmas.


Helping Daddy bring in the tree...

Playing with a little pewter nativity - I like how he trys to give tiny baby Jesus a hug.

The finished product (although the bottom third is changing daily) and I've tried so very many times in the last couple of weeks but the angel on top just wants to lean this year!

I usually do something more festive on the mantle but this year I thought I'd keep it simple.

Wow, the boys allow butterflies?! Good for you, Mom. And your house looks great. But I have to say I REALLY like that image above your fireplace. Please do share the details...

That IS a gorgeous tree! The butterflies are beautiful, too. I miss having a mantle and VERY MUCH identify with "the bottome third changing daily". ;)

Hey, thank you for your prayers, re: my son. And thank you for sharing about your cousin, too. How very nice that you've learned some sign to communicate better with her!

Love the butterflies.

My 1-year old loves to help decorating the Christmas tree, too. He is still helping, although the tree has been decorated more than a week ago.

Here's what he does: He goes to tree. He removes the decorations. He puts them in the floor. Then he puts it back on the tree.

He can do that all day long.
