It's Beginning to Look a Lot Like Christmas

We've been busy decking the halls at our house....and this year, Isaiah is SO very into it all!

He helped us decorate the Christmas tree (we are so grateful for his wheelchair, allowing him to help independently) and ever since then he points to it daily "Kissma Tree, Kissma Tree".  

He's learned how to say "Merry Christmas!", though it sounds something like "Mera Kissma!" and has learned quite a few Christmas Carols...his favorites being Jingle Bells, Deck the Halls, Joy to the World, and Up on the Rooftop.

We've taken him to a few events, including Dinner with Mrs Claus and Yummie over at Kitchen Kettle Village for a second year in a row. 

We took advantage of the nicer weather and our membership and checked out the amazing displays at Longwood Gardens...

(We had gotten there right at sundown.  Holy beautiful sunset Batman.)

and we met Santa at our local library at a special closed event!

Isaiah tested his coal-limits that night by yanking at Santa's beard and pulling his glasses and tossing them on the floor.  #thatkid  We've since had many talks about that and I can tell you that when we visited Santa at the mall, Isaiah's behavior was much better....(picture to come!)

Toddler behavior aside, it's been a pretty fantastic holiday season so far.  Only 9 days left until Christmas!
