Decorating Dilemma

You may be asking yourself, "How does one decorate for Christmas with an active 18 month old running around?" Well, I don't know the correct way to do it, but here's what we did...

First have him "help" you move furniture

Second, let him play in the Christmas tree box

Next, allow said 18 month old to sit on the couch and eat crackers while watching "Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer"

Instead of putting up a breakable nativity set, put up a plastic Little People one

Last, don't forget to gate off the tree

That oughta' keep him out. Happy Holidays!

It never occurred to me to gate off the tree. We've always driven ourselves crazy saying NO DON"T TOUCH!!! POINTER FINGER TOUCH ONLY.

Love the photos.
