Let the Holidays Begin

I didn't post yesterday due to a rather busy day-- getting holiday stuff in order (or at least beginning to), visit from a friend, another visit, this time from two friends and their toddler.... busy busy busy. Today, in constrast, has been rather mellow. I finished putting up the lights and we trimmed the tree (a.k.a. the Giant Cat Toy), all at a very slow and leisurely pace. Aidan has spent most of the day asleep after all the exciting people that were here yesterday.

It's kind of strange, preparing for his first Christmas. Logically, I know there's no whay he has a clue what's going on. We bought him presents already, and I'm sure he'll show us how much he loves them by making us one of his own and wrapping it neatly in a diaper. Nevertheless, I'm excited aboiut it. I want it to snow in the worst way, just so he can see it. Again, he won't know (or remember) what it is, but it would still be cool.

Besides, I really need to get some footage of the kid on the camcorder I bought specifically for him yet have barely used, lest I once again be accused of being impulsive by You-Know-Who.
