christmas decorating

porter enjoyed helping me decorate for christmas this year. he kept counting the christmas trees- one tree, two trees, more trees. he can count to five, but when he's counting items it is always 1, 2, more. there was christmas ribbon dragged throughout the house, and some christmas ornaments were mistaken for "balls". in fact, i haven't had the heart to put the ornaments on the tree yet, i just don't see it ending well. his pictures are making me laugh these days. any time i bring out the camera, he says "CHEEEESE!" and then runs over to look at the picture. then he runs back to the same place and says "CHEEEESE" again.
