Scary Claus!!!

We took Mason to the mall last weekend to see Santa Claus. While we waited in line he was pretty excited. I think that he is more familiar with Santa this year because of the MULTITUDE of times he has watched the Polar Express movie. So I asked him what he was going to tell Santa he wanted for Christmas, he got even more excited and said that he wanted a truck and train. When our time finally came, Mason slowly approached Santa. I thought that this was going really well until when he placed Mason on his lap and I saw his face...


He didn't freak out and cry, I think he was too afraid to move. He just sat there starring at him through the corner of his eye. Santa asked him what he wanted and Mason wouldn't speak.

I think that we will put this picture on all our Christmas cards this year! MERRY CHRISTMAS!

He has made a lot of progress from last year and I am still pretty proud of him. I think that next year he will get it do even better (I hope)!

Christmas is in the air...

We went to Gardner Village today to see their Christmas decorations and to get some dinner. Mason was really excited to see the all the Christmas lights on the trees and buildings. They also had cute little elf displays all over the place (kind of like the witches during Halloween), which Mason wasn't as excited about.

David was on the Naughty list!


Not sure what to think of the Elves yet...


Mason saw a really BIG sucker!

We also did a little bit of shopping. I got some more ornaments to add to our Christmas tree. I put it up the other day to help get in the spirit. I don't think that it will completely feel like Christmas until we get some more snow, but I can wait for that!


It's small, but get's the job done!
