santa

Last night I took the kiddos, including Coders, to see Santa at our Ward Christmas party. It was entertaining to see the little kids react to Santa. This was the 4th time this year that Brinley and Cody had seen Santa. Cody's words:
Santa: "What would you like for Christmas?"
Cody: "I already wrote you a letter Santa."
Brinley didn't want to sit on Santa's lap, but realized that you can't get your candy cane unless you do. This kid LOVES candy canes. She sang with the Primary kids with one in her mouth.

Sarah was easy, didn't complain, just sat there like a good little bean.
********
on another note, I am back to volunteering again. Matt stayed with the girls last night while I was at the hospital photographing a sweet little baby. Sarah was good for her tired Daddy, I just pumped a bottle for her and she was happy...SO OPPOSITE of Brinley.

Just wanted to leave a comment about something I wished I'd done. Take the kids picture with Santa every year. My daughter's friend's parents did this and then hung the pictures up every Christmas. Then you see how the children grow. You also see changing attitudes. There comes a time around 12, 13 or 14 yo when they don't want to sit on Santa's lap. But make them! So that you will have a complete series age 0-18.
