It's been a lot of fun this year to watch Elizabeth light up as she sees the Christmas decorations all around her. We haven't decorated the house, besides putting a wooden nativity that she can play w/ out. But Grandma Burton has gone all out and Ellie loves the decorations at her house. We've chosen not to play Santa so as she sees the Santas at the mall and in front of houses she doesn't give more than a second glance. I know that we'll have to explain it to her in the future, but for now saying nothing works fine.
She's really into baby Jesus - she talks about him a lot and wants to see the manger scenes that people have set up out in their front yards. She enjoys playing pretend with her nativity set that we gave her today. She is also enamored with snowmen. Grandma Burton put out 3 snowmen in front of her house and Ellie insisted on bringing the littlest snowman inside last time we were there. She carried that little snowman (almost as tall as her) all over Grandma's house!

Kaelin is into Jesus, too...but from our advent calendar. I still haven't found a nativity scene that I love and thus, haven't bought one.
