Dear Santa...

I know it's not even Thanksgiving yet, but you've gotta get in early with the Big Guy around here! We went to visit Santa today and, well, it was rather wild. I wasn't crazy about sitting with him, but did stay long enough to get a few of my requests in (anything Elmo!). Needless to say, I'm glad it's over and the elves can get to work! :)

Ways to entertain yourself while waiting for Santa:
Run anywhere and everywhere---fast!

Try out the escalator
Feel the soft, velvet rope while in line


Pose with Daddy

Climb the stairs
And finally, pose with Mommy...almost ready to go see the Big Man!

So far so good...

Meltdown!
Okay, so I wasn't crazy about sitting on Santa's lap. And, I hate to tell that guy but, waving that stuffed animal wasn't going to change anything.


Zoom in on the meltdown
(Note from Mommy: I love this picture! While I hate to see my baby cry, every child needs a "crying with Santa" picture! We got ours out of the way at year two!)
I was able to tell him what I wanted once Mommy came to rescue me
Whew! What a morning!
I'm sorry some of the photos are blurry...our camera was acting up &/or our little one wouldn't stay still! :)
Happy Weekend!!

Which mall did y'all go to?

Oh my word! That reminds me of the year Ashlyn was two and the only way she would sit on Santa's lap was if I sat on him with her. So yes, we have a picture of both of us on his lap. Priceless! Happy Thanksgiving! We love y'all.

Yep....us too! MR slept like a baby after her visit too. We put her down at 7 that night and had to wake her up at 9:30 the next morning. "Scary Santa" might need to come over more often:)
