A Visit With Santa

Every year since having Ethan, we have been included in a private sitting with Santa. This Santa takes time out of his "busy" schedule to come to a friends house and spend one on one time with the kids. Each family gets a 30 minute session of private time with Santa. There are a handful of families that are included, so it is nice that it remains an intimate event. We look forward to this every year. Our nephews have been doing this tradition long before us, so Ethan was excited to join them in the fun.

 I keep waiting for the "fear" to set in. But with each passing year that we see Santa, Ethan seems to be more and more comfortable around him. This year he was very excited about seeing Santa, and walked right up to him with no problems. He was talking to him like he'd just seen him yesterday. He got right up in his lap, and said "Santa I like your truck". (Santa drives a big red pick up truck with "SANTA" on the back of it) He proceeded to ask him for a soccer ball, and trucks for Christmas.

 

 

 

Does it get any cuter?!

 

 

Cousin time!

 

 

 

We are truly enjoying Ethan at this age- what fun it has been to see Christmas in his eyes. I cannot wait until Christmas morning this year. I know that with every passing year, it will only get better.

 

I hope that your family has been enjoying Holiday traditions!
