December was a great month. It is so much fun having a toddler for Christmas. I know he really didn't understand what was going on, but we still had a great time going through the motions and starting so many wonderful family traditions.
We kicked off the season by going and picking out our tree at Piney Acres Tree Farm in Fortville. We also used the great scenery to get some super cute Christmas card picures of Walker.

 |
| Happy Boy! |
 |
| He had a great time running up and down the aisles. |
 |
| So big! |

| His new favorite expression |
 |
| Umm, that's not a tree. That's a weed. |
 |
| Playing in the weeds |
 |
| Is this our tree? |
 |
| He is the happiest when he is outside. |

| Checking out the nest we found |
 |
| Will this fit in our house? |

After some cocoa and popcorn, we headed home with our tree. That night, Walker helped Daddy string the lights our beautiful tree.
We also met Grandma at the mall and went to see Santa. Walker wasn't scared at all!
On Christmas Eve, we went to a beautiful Christmas Eve service at our church. It was fun having Walker with us and not in the nursery so we could sing carols and celebrate the birth of Jesus as a family.
When we got home, Walker got ready for Santa's arrival
 |
| We left milk and cookies... |
 |
| Walker was in charge of quality control |
 |
| We hung our stockings... |
 |
| and we went to bed to wait for Santa! |
The big guy must have been so impressed with Walker's good behavior, that he may have gone a little overboard again this year...
More to come soon!
