What are all those colorful things under the tree, Josiah?

It is so much fun having a little one who is about to celebrate his very first Christmas! Of course, Josiah has no idea really what Christmas is all about, nor does he have any idea what all those brightly-colored boxes under the tree are, but he is so very curious about all of it! He's fascinated with the tree, the lights, and of course all those presents! I took some photos a couple days ago when he was exploring around the tree. He's so intent on exploring the presents that he has a very serious look on his face in most of them...he couldn't be bothered to stop and pose for the camera with all this exciting stuff around!



Hmmm, what happens when I pull on this?





Oooh, this one looks interesting!

I can't quite reach that one...

Hmmm, what's over there?

My brother wants to play with me, but I'm really busy exploring!

Okay, enough posing for pictures...I've got to get to that box over there!

This one is very interesting!!

I can only imagine how much fun it will be when he discovers Christmas morning that all that bright paper and all those bows can be ripped off to reveal fun toys to play with! I can't wait to see his reactions! We'll be sure to take lots of pictures!! :)
