Our Visit With Santa

I am pleased to announce that this year's Santa's visit went wonderfully! (We actually went on the 11th.) There were no tears at all, either.

Well, I guess I need to be honest...there were tears, but none had to do with good old St. Nick. Shawn was assaulted by an overly friendly four year old who kept shoving his stuffed frog in Shawn's face. Let's just say that Shawn was less than pleased about it.

They were rock stars during the wait. When they got on his lap, they could hardly look away...

Hey there! How are you, big guy? We've heard a lot about you!


As you can see, Jason is pleased as punch that he is sitting on Santa's lap. Shawn was equally as pleased, but he spent most of his time trying to point out mommy to Santa. In the above picture, he is trying to get my attention so I could come meet Santa, too. He liked him that much, he wanted to share him with me! Aww...

The hardest thing about these boys, though, is getting them both to look at the camera at the same time. Sigh. The photographer, Isaac, and I were jumping around, yelling like crazy trying to get their attention. One would look, but the other wouldn't. You get the idea. Lol.

But we finally got them both looking at the camera...

Cheese!

Now the boys like to look at the picture and tell me all about Santa. It is too cute.

This year was a much better shot than we got last year...


Heh, heh.
The funny part about this shot is that Shawn swears up and down that the crying boy is Jason! He does not take credit for that moment at all.

Yes, the other years' shots were good, but it is hard to top the first time they saw Santa...


I mean look at those itty, bitty faces! :-) How can you top those looks?

Lastly, I am posting the boy's first Christmas pictures. Here they are in all of their nearly 4 pound glory. They were so tiny, these newborn socks swim on their feet.

This last shot is one of my all time favorites of the boys. It was the first time I actually got to hold them both at the same time, too. :-)

I know! This one deserves loads more awwws than the others combined!

Man, these guys are cute!

From our family to yours,

We hope you all have a wonderful holiday season!

Merry Christmas!
