Around 25 seconds in, after Neal helps him place the ornament on the tree, he reacts with a shimmy. We can only guess that he didn't particularly care for the bristly feel of the tree on his hand. He continues to shake it off a bit after touching the tree but I think he's getting used to it.
Also, I completely forgot to mention that I took Elias to visit "Santa" on Monday. I wasn't sure how he'd react, but I figured he'd be down with it. He isn't displaying any stranger anxiety yet; on the contrary he's usually quite the charmer when we're out and about. He was even resting his head on Santa's beard when he wasn't smiling for the camera. People are telling me next year's likely to be a different story. I can't think that far ahead. We like to take things one day at a time around here. So for 2008, sitting on Santa's lap was a success. I wonder what Elias asked for...

Merry Christmas to you, Neal and Elias. Hope your holiday is filled with fun, laughter and love.
Take care of that baby and thank you for almost the daily peek into your family life and being able to see Elias grow up on my computer.
Blessed Christmas to you all. love you, robin
My pleasure, as always, to share what Elias is up to. I'm also realizing this blog is key to my fragile sanity :)
