We went to our friend's engagement party this evening and Tiernan discovered two new passions:
Wine (In bottle almost the size of him)
Handbags
He played with them ALL night with short interludes where he twirled around and around like a dog chasing his tail!
He had ALL the ladies swooning over him!

Decorating the Christmas Tree - Part 2
So we eventually managed to get some shatterproof ornaments and were able to complete decorating the tree, T helped us out again:
Santa's not so bad after all.
After the last visit to see Santa where Tiernan looked as frightened as a deer caught in headlights, we decided to introduce Operation Befriend Santa.
For the last three weeks every time we have been near a mall, we have popped in and asked if we could visit with Santa. Most of the time there was no-one about, so we got to go in and spend some time talking to Santa, he even cave T a toy a few of the times. I could tell that he was starting to get a little warmer towards the old fella as he started to get closer each time.
Today was "The Day", armed with a group of friends we hit the mall, played a little and then headed over to Santa. Tiernan was a champ, he walked right up to Santa and stood beside him, letting me get a few photos on my own camera and then was pretty content while sitting on his lap, he even cracked a smile once or twice. After we were done, he kept making a bee-line back to Santa and nearly interrupted a few kids pictures. Him and Old Saint Nick were fast friends by the end of it, giving high fives and even kisses!
The proof is in the pudding:

Putting up the Christmas Tree - Part 1
We decided to go against our original "Bah Humbug" plan of NOT getting a tree. I did manage to convince Tony that fake would be a better option, as I could only imagine the places I would be picking pine needles out of, thanks to Tiernan, if we got a real one. We started decorating, only to realise that we had no hooks to hang our bauble, so we have to put them on at later date.
It was fun, trying to wrestle T from stealing the tree skirt every two seconds, hanging Candy Canes out of grubby little paws reach etc! Fun Fun Fun!!
