We're Sorry, Santa.


Yesterday we went to visit Santa, but I'm not sure we made a great impression on him. Heidi Sage failed to smile at him...and Clinton failed to get near him.

I was at the very least hoping for the classic screaming and crying picture, but Clinton has this amazing way of turning into a noodle making himself impossible to pick up and forced into placement. So our pictures are mostly of Clinton on the floor....or on the run.

Clinton writing his letter to Santa. It was actually just tracings of his hands, but he told us about wanting Thomas the Train, a robot truck, and a race car.


Clinton did enjoy seeing his girlfriend, Anderson. They laid on the stage and talked about whatever little lovies talk about, and Clinton enjoyed watching her dance to Christmas tunes. Seeing Anderson was probably the highlight of the entire trip for Clinton.


Typical pictures for our children these days. Clinton--completely uncooperative. Heidi Sage--picture perfect. Both amusing and adorable in their own way.

It was a fun morning full of donuts, spilled coffee, Santa-letter writing, dancing on the stage while the well-behaved children made crafts, jabbering during the Christmas story, and running from Santa. Let's just hope the jolly old man still wants to come down our chimney!

Our sincerest apologies, Santa.

Christmas Cuteness

Christmas Lights Up -- CHECK!

Trees Decorated -- CHECK!

All Shopping Completed -- CHECK!

Adorable Christmas Outfits to Wear Everyday of the Season Courtesy of Bebe -- CHECK!

We're ready for Christmas! We started out by getting the outside lights put up. Clinton loved this because he loves "hupping", even if it isn't really all that hup-ful. But he also really loves umbrellas, so he was excited about the rain. Heidi Sage loves sitting in her wagon being in the middle of whatever we're doing....so needless to say, she was also a bit excited.






This week we received our Christmas wardrobe from my mom (Bebe). Heidi Sage and Clinton are going to be two very well dressed Christmas cuties. We've already started wearing our gear, and don't be surprised if all of our pictures from now to Christmas are full of these outfits. We're going to wear them to death!
