Decorating for Christmas=FAIL

So, every year I decorate for Christmas. I have been adding items to my stash for years: faux snow, beautiful flowers, all things glittery and bright, etc. So this year I was so excited to bust it all out again and show Dax how beautiful our little cluttered house could get for the holidays. I had Mike bring the boxes down after Thanksgiving and figured I would be done by Dec. 1st. Well after a hellish week of working at PB, I was too pooped to do anything for a few days. And then there was digging through all my old clothes that I cannot squeeze into anymore for a consignment sale. And then there was the moth problem and days of laundry. The list goes on and on. So now, it is Dec. 17th, the Christmas tree was decorated last week, the stockings are hung, and that's about it. No snow, no glitz and glitter, nada. Such a sad house for the holidays. This was supposed to be the easy year to decorate with a new baby because, well, he's just that, a baby. Not mobile yet. Not super needy. But there was just always something else that I needed to get done first. So I'm having to come to terms with the fact that my house won't be spruced up for our 1st Christmas with Dax. But, at least we have a tree...
