Its begining to look a lot like...

The house is looking a little bit different at the moment, and Peanut has noticed.

He has noticed the pile of presents on top of the entertainment unit. He has noticed the collection of cards next ot them. He has also noticed the tiny off cuts of wrapping paper that have been left on the floor (unintentionally of course) and taste so good.

But the festive season addition that he seems the most excited about is the Christmas tree. We bought a brand new Christmas tree this year, a 90cm fibre optic tree. It has been decorated with little purple bobbles and candy canes and a plastic Hello Kitty for the top.

Peanut is fascinated with the tree, he loves watching the lights as it flickers through its multicoloured lighting display. It was a smart idea to get a tree that easily sits on top of the entertainment unit rather than on the floor. The tree at the baby play centre has been placed in a play pen - to keep little hands off it. And if we had have bought a tree that sat on the floor I am sure that we would be spending ever minute of the day at the moment fishing bobbles out of Peanuts mouth.

And with this twinkling addition to the normal decor of our lounge room has come a new "trick" from Peanut. He seems to have learnt how to point. He will be looking stright at the three and he let out a grunt of excitement and point at it.

I know what you are thinking, is the fact the he now points at things worth blogging about? Well, yes, kind of...

Well at least this is a pre-Christmas post, and we are very quickly getting to Peanut's first Christmas, and he is noticing that something a bit different is going on (and with all the glittering lights, he is loving it!)
