The holidays are coming so darn fast, I can't believe it. It's going to be so much fun this year since Natalie actually knows what's going on a bit more. Last year at this time she was just learning to crawl.... boy how times have changed.
She enjoyed looking through the ornaments and putting them on the tree. (Chewy is always a fan of the Christmas tree as well.)
And some things never change - the beads were a hit this year as well! 
And Nat has added some seasonal words to her vocabulary as well. She knows "Christmas Tree" and "Christmas Lights", as well as "Santa", "Reindeer", and "Rudolph". She is going to tell Santa that she wants a "Kitchen" for Christmas, (if we ever get close enough to talk to him - I'm very disillusioned with this whole Santa process, let me just tell you!)
But don't let all of that make you think we are neglecting her Jewish heritage completely. Natalie helped light the Hanukkah candles this year and even said some of the first night prayer with us. She piped in with the last word of each line or so, though she stumbled on the word "Hanukkah" pretty badly. Not bad for a first try.
