Taking the Scenic Route

These are from late November, but I realized I forgot to post them, so here goes…

I wanted to get a picture of both kids by the tree top section of the tree.  There are about 20 pictures of this variety…

until I finally just gave up getting both of them in the picture at the same time 

Zane directing the action.  He had been asking for the tree for several weeks.

ahhh

Zane was pretty possesive about the Christmas tree and ornaments.  One of the problems with trying to get a picture by the tree topper was that he was fine until she touched the tree and then would drag it away from her or meltdown if I would have a grip on the tree.  He also wasn’t convinced that she should touch any ornaments.  It was fun to be navigating a typical sibling rivalry and within a few days he was able to handle her touching the tree and the ornaments with a lot less anxiety.
