Christmas Preparations

We have had a great time decorating for Christmas this year. Aiden is really into trains (we have at least 2 sets of tracks set up on the living room floor at all times) and several years ago Memaw and Papaw (Andy's parents) gave us this really cool train set that can go around a Christmas tree. We decided to get it out this year and see what Aiden thought of it. It is really big and high tech with a remote control and everything. Needless to say Aiden loves it! However, it is so big that we are going to have to do some moving around because of the close proximity of the hearth to the base of the tree. In the meantime here are some pictures from last Thursday when we put the tree up.

Aiden checking out the remote control for the train.

He had his camera ready to take my picture too!

Daddy working on getting the train to go around on the too tight turns.

All the excitement was too much for him-- he fell asleep in front of the fire with Melmo playing on the portable DVD (in his Melmo pjs of course-- I had to take the seam out of the toes because his feet were too big).

I honestly don't know how we ended up with only UGA stockings!
