Trimming the tree

This being our first Christmas with a child, we didn't know how Owen would react to the tree. We intended to do our decorating last weekend. Well...at least the tree is in the house. We haven't found the time to actually do anything else. Our theory is that Owen can't see us putting pretty things on the tree because he will think he can touch it too. And at night we are too exhausted to pull out the all the boxes of stuff.

So far, he just crawls by it and puts out his hand. We tell him no, and so far he's only touched it once. But the good thing is it's fake, so it's kind of prickly. He didn't like the way it felt. And anytime he goes for a ball under or near the tree and a branch barely touches his head, he gets away as fast as possible. We'll see how he does once there are sparkly things hanging from it...fingers crossed.
