A Boy and His Tree

Robert loves loves loves the Christmas tree. We set up all of his ornaments around the bottom, so he can poke his way around it, pointing out Elmo, Ernie (aka "Quack," as he's holding Rubber Duckie), Bert, Big Bird (aka "Bird"), Cookie Monster (aka... well, he makes that distinctive Cookie Monster munching noise -- I don't know that you can really spell it), Santa (aka "Ho Ho Ho"), Peanut (who has many aliases, including "P," "D," and "Dut"), and Bobo (we have a couple of bear ornaments).

Anyway, the kid loves the tree.
