Packages and Bows!

This Christmas is already such fun with Carter. His eyes light up at the sight of Christmas decorations, he claps as we turn on the Christmas tree lights, and he cheers each time the Grinch's heart grows! It does feel a bit like we have a cat in the house, though. Why? Well, you should see Carter creep up to the Christmas tree and begin batting at the ornaments.. .
Last night as Scott and I were filling our supper plates, Carter was upstairs and it got suspiciously quiet. I called up to him, "Carter, what are you doing?" His reply with great joy in his voice, "I'm just opening my Christmas presents!!" I scrambled up the stairs and quickly pried the box from his sweet hands. Patience will be a difficult virtue to teach this Christmas!
