Holiday party

Apparently even daycare has holiday parties. Really it was just normal afternoon snacks and ornament crafts, only with parents. It’s a nice time though to see Des in his daily environment and interacting with classmates.

Des home with a mild fever, but of course has the energy to push around a bottle in a cup as a walker

O Tannenbaum

Des watched attentively as the tree went up this evening. Mom and dad are still deciding to what degree it will be decorated this year, for safety and sanity sake.
