Monday

Ho Ho Ho

This is us Friday night at the tree lightening. It's amazing there were actual people out on the town past 6pm on a Friday night in Anacortes!!
You have to click on the photo or zoom in to see the terror on Grace's face.

This is right after the official Santa photo was taken ( I'll have to scan later). Of course daddy was to the rescue with a cookie and all.

Grace is holding onto her daddy for dear life.

This is the face Grace made after I ask her if she wanted to go and see Santa again. I'm such a mean mommy.

Santa has left the building and Grace is a little less stressed.

Grace has on high heels already!

Life is good. Cookie in one had and a jar of sprinkles in the other.

Not sure why parents try to force their children to sit on a strangers lap that is dressed in a red suit with a over sized white beard once a year, but Josh and I did. I actually had to jump in the photo with Grace so she would not cry as hard.

Here are a few pics leading up to the actual sitting on Santa's lap and a few post pictures of Grace recovering from sitting on Santa's lap.

It's like a right of passage for kids, everyone has that one Santa photo where they are screaming their heads off!! At least she looks absolutely adorable in that outfit!! We haven't taken Austin yet, but I am sure it's not going to be like last year when he was just a little baby smiling at anything he saw ;) Love that you got in the photo with her, can't wait to see it! Are you ready to have that baby yet?!!!!! :)

GOSH. What a cutie poo-tootie. Love her dress. She's all grown up with a pair of high heels. I guess that's what happens when you become a big sister!
