An almost two year old's tree decorating....

Today we FINALLY got our tree decorated. We probably should have done this little task while a certain someone was taking her nap but we wanted to do it together as our family of four for the firs time. Last year we Daddy, Ashton and I did it without Lan-Lan's help.

She was really into it at first. Then she became more interested in the hooks so she became "Daddy's Little Hook Assistant". When she did put the ornaments on the tree, she put them all in the same spot...making a little clump. The picture doesn't do it any justice, there are about 6 ornaments all balled up together at the bottom of the tree. We haven't move them yet...it is just too cute. Ashton did the same thing in her younger days.

We usually let Ashton put the ornaments on and then we spread them out when she is done. This year she did a pretty darn good job of spreading them out. Daddy did the ones she couldn't reach.

Our tree is "kid decorated" and I think we might just leave it like it is this year!

OMG, that is how my tree turned out as well! Gavin did so much as hang ornaments ON other ornaments this year.

Yep, I do love how the little ones decorate a tree... everything at the bottom, all clumped together!

Enjoy it!... before long they'll be tall enough to reach the top and we just might miss all the decorations at the bottom of the tree!
