Last night we decorated our tree. Here are some photos. (Apologies to those of you who already saw them on facebook.)


(These next two are so similar, and yet I love them both and could not choose one over the other.)


Here’s Thomas telling the baby all about decorating the tree. In his Pirate voice of course. Quick, look away if you’re liable to be terrified by my monstrous girth.

Otto was not amused when we put the Christmas hat on him. In fact, he sat motionless, slightly hunched over and looking straight ahead with an ice-cold, pained stare, for about 20 minutes. Even when Thomas accidentally stepped on him. I think he was trying to communicate telepathically: “Humans, is this really necessary? Bah humbug.”

Finally he moved ever so slightly to look over at me: “Seriously, food lady? Really? It’s so humiliating.” We ended the torture just after this photo was taken.
