oh christmas tree, oh christmas tree

we put up our x-mas tree over the weekend, and it was a lot of fun! nic really got into it this year, for the first time. he tried to help put it together, but he had a hard time fitting the pieces in the holes. then we tried to get him to fluff the branches, but he didn't really get the whole "fluffing" concept : ) mostly he just randomly placed branches within the ones that we had already placed on the tree...

nic trying to fit a piece on the tree...good try buddy!

here he is trying to pick up the top of the tree, but it was a lil too heavy

we didn't have time to decorate the tree the same day we put it up, so we finished it the next day. nic was equally excited about this. he is a very good little tree decorator : ) after we got it all done, he kept on saying, "oh, its boootiful!"
