Well, since Charlie likes to explore everything within his reach, and since we don’t really have extra room in our apartment, Jimmy and I decided to decorate a little tree this year! We always decorate the weekend after Thanksgiving. On this particular decorating occasion, we listened to our “Baby, It’s Cold Outside” CD, drank hot…
