Ethan's First Christmas Tree

We decided it was time to get our tree, so the whole family made the trip about 3 blocks down the road to a little tree lot to pick out Ethan's first Christmas Tree. He was a very good helper, and we decided on a small, cute tree in no time!



We did have a bit of a dilemma deciding where to put the tree in our home due to space constraints and a little stinker toddling around who I'm sure would love to taste those little pine needles. Therefore, we decided to put it in the computer room, where there is a door with windows that we shut so Ethan isn't allowed in here anyway. This is the perfect set up, because we will be able to see in through the doors, but not touch the tree or presents underneath!

We are letting the tree dry out before we decorate it, since it got snowed on in the big storm. Those of you who have visited our home in the winter know that it is REALLY cold in our computer room because it doesn't have any heat! It's more like a sun porch that we turned into an office. Anyway, I am noticing that the snow is melting so you will be happy to know that it is warmer in here than it is outside!
