We were very excited to decorate for Christmas this year! I think it is the first year we have decorated before Thanksgiving. Jaxon thought it was awesome! For about a month, ever since Target put all their trees on display, we would go to Target and Jaxon would see the Christmas trees and say, "Happy birthday to you!" and I would tell him it wasn't a birthday tree it was a Christmas tree. But even after that, every time he would say, "Happy birthday to you!" so finally I told him it was a birthday tree, it was happy birthday to Jesus tree, so now whenever he sees a tree he says, "Happy birthday to Jesus!" Sometimes it takes our children to remind us what the season is all about!
Jaxon had a good time putting up the tree and he thought it was cool, but his two favorite parts were the singing mickey stockings and the candy canes! I had totally forgotten about the stockings because I bought them last year after Christmas, but as soon as Jaxon found out that they sang, he was all over them! We have two of them, one for Jaxon and one for Brynn, so lucky for us, he will push the button on both of them at the same time so they sing at the same time...it's great! He has to do that at least 2 or 3 times a day. He will carry them around the house and show Brynn, he loves them! 
Jaxon's other favorite part of decorating was the candy canes that went on the tree. Mind you, these candy canes are probably 4 or 5 years old, we never ate them off the tree, so we just saved them and used them the next year. It didn't seem to bother Jaxon that they were so old, he dug right into them!
