As we near Christmas Ryan, like most kids, is starting to get a bit wired. Add to that the fact that December 25th is also his second birthday and it leaves you with a super excited almost 2 year old force to be reckoned with.
He got the hint about what a birthday is during October when we celebrated his Aunt Mimi, his grandma and my own birthday. We told him his birthday would be coming next and since then it has been deemed his "happy day."
He's no less excited about Santa, to put it quite honestly, he's OBSESSED with him. He's seen him roughly 5 times, had pictures, taken, and one a semi regular basis goes to the front door with coat and hat in hand and demands to go see Santa. "I see Santa!" Most children his age won't go anywhere near Santa!
We did all the usual holiday traditions this year...Christmas tree,.lights outside, gingerbread men etc. We found a second tree and put it up in the kitchen and used colored light on this one and Ryan has decided that this would be his "happy day tree." It's actually quite amusing to watch him decide which things are for Christmas and which things are for his "happy day."
