Christmas Discoveries

Cadan is of age to be quick enough and quiet enough to be mischievous...thus the need to baby proof. He loves crawling in the cabinets if he can make room, if not he may just decide to rearrange whatever may be blocking his path. So Dave has been working on installing our safety locks... Cadan thought he would help.

Whew, exhausting work...

Well, after all of that babyproofing... let's put up a bunch of Christmas decorations. That should keep us busy now that the cupboards are on lock down.

He is not allowed to touch the manger scene under the tree but has sat for hours... okay, slight exaggeration, he has sat for a good minute or two anyway, staring at the manger scene...and just as I pulled out the camera he decided he couldn't stand it a minute longer and reached out to touch baby Jesus.

He has also been known to take an ornament or two as a teething toy. His favorite is the toy soldier. He stares at it a while...
And then sticks it straight in his mouth...


Okay, that was fun...for a moment..

Now on to the fake candy canes

You know, I thought these would taste better...


Catching our reflection in the Christmas ball,


Well, the Christmas discoveries have just begun... just wait until he discovers the eggnog and Christmas cookies.
